Abstract:
A variety of applications for UV LEDs that are integrated into a system are described, where the UV light is used for disinfection of air or surfaces, or used to detect the scattering light by particles, or used for skin treatment. In one embodiment, a ceiling luminaire includes a sensor for detecting the presence of people in the room. The luminaire contains a first set of LEDs for generating white light, for illumination, and a second set of LEDs for generating UV light for disinfecting the room. When the sensor detects that no people are in the room, the system automatically controls the UV LEDs to turn on to disinfect the room. The white light LEDs may be independently controlled with a dimmer.

Claim (Index 1):
A combined disinfection and lighting luminaire comprising:\n a first set of light emitting diodes (LEDs), a second set of LEDs, and a third set of LEDs, the first, second, and third sets of LEDs being housed in a single luminaire; the first set of LEDs generating a first light for producing white light to illuminate a room when energized; the second set of LEDs generating invisible light in the UV range, wherein UV light from the second set of LEDs is directed downward to disinfect surfaces in the room when energized; the third set of LEDs generating invisible light in the UV range, wherein UV light from the third set of LEDs is not directed downward, and wherein the UV light from the third set of LEDs is for disinfecting air in the room when energized; a sensor in the luminaire for detecting whether there are people in the vicinity of the luminaire, wherein the sensor is coupled to automatically control at least the second set of LED; and the luminaire being configured to operate in at least two modes wherein,\n the luminaire being operable in a first mode, when the sensor detects a person is in the vicinity of the luminaire, in which the second set of LEDs automatically ceases to emit the downward light, while the third set of LEDs remains energized to disinfect the air, \n the luminaire being operable in a second mode, when the sensor detects no people in the vicinity of the luminaire, in which both the second set of LEDs and the third set of LEDs are energized to disinfect surfaces in the room and disinfect air in the room.
