Abstract:
A self-monitoring LED marine navigation light that monitors LED intensity and if the intensity is not COLREG compliant, a microprocessor in the light simulates an open filament just as would an incandescent light, thus allowing the analog ships alarm panel circuit to trigger an alarm. The device generally comprises a base, a lens mounted to the base, and an LED module seated in the base and enclosed by the lens. The LED module includes primary and optional secondary LED lights plus one or more photodiode(s) exposed to the LED light(s). The LED also includes a processor and software for measuring light intensity input to the photodiode(s), comparing measured intensity to a minimum COLREG threshold, and signaling failure when measured intensity falls below said minimum threshold.

Claim (Index 1):
A marine navigation light, comprising:\n a base; a lens mounted to the base; an LED module seated in said base and enclosed by said lens, said LED module further comprising,\n a support member, \n at least one LED light mounted on the support member, \n at least one photodiode mounted on the support member and exposed to said at least one LED light, and \n an electronic module mounted in said support member and comprising one or more printed circuit boards containing circuitry including at least an LED driver circuit, a photodiode, a processor, and non-transitory computer-readable storage device storing a monitoring software module comprising a series of computer-readable instructions for monitoring an intensity of said at least one LED light mounted in the facing of said support member by the steps of,\n measuring light intensity at said photodiode of the at least one LED light mounted on the support member, \n automatically comparing at said processor said measured intensity to a minimum threshold, \n signaling a failure when said measured intensity falls below said minimum threshold. having a flat facing intersecting a shoulder
