Light engines increase brightness

Modular light engines use LED technology to spread light from a single light source over a wide, flat area. The LED light engines combine one or more high-power LEDs with a Lumitex woven or UniGlo fiberoptic panel. A special collimating lens captures, then focuses, the light from the LEDs to the fiberoptic panel. Encased in an aluminum housing that acts as a heat sink, the assembly provides increased panel brightness--as much as 20X to 50X brighter--by driving these high-power LEDs at a higher current through more efficient heat management. Typical brightnesses that can be achieved are 100 Ft-L or more for a 3 x 5-in. fiberoptic panel illuminated by a single high-brightness LED. The light engines control the color the light source produces, eliminating the color shift. They require no warmup and are not sensitive to shock and vibration.
