Generator masters the colour mix

A Light-Based Technologies product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Apr 18, 2005

Light-Based Technologies has developed a novel analogue RGB colour generator that allows users to manipulate any RGB structure to any output colour in the visible light spectrum.

Light-Based Technologies has developed a novel analogue RGB colour generator that allows users to manipulate any RGB structure to any output colour in the visible light spectrum.

With just a simple turn of a dial, slide of a lever or change of input frequency, the colour generator gives users the ability to blend and mix the three RGB (red, green, blue) elements through the entire colour spectrum of 16,777,216 colours.

There are numerous variations of the colour generator.

These include technological, functional, structural and applicational variations.

All variations are designed, diagrammed, prototyped and ready for production.

The colour generator is also designed to be a nonproprietary structure.

With some calibration it can accept input from any control device on the market.

It can also accept inputs from a wide variety of devices and change the incoming information into a corresponding colour, moving the entire light spectrum as the input runs through its range of input levels.

Some input types include frequency, direct current voltage, alternating current voltage, piezoelectric crystals, piezoelectric resistors, potentiometers, Light-Based Technologies' Optical Eye and various digital technologies.

This flexibility allows the colour generator to be easily integrated into any current system, immediately increasing the colour output to the entire spectrum, and also minimises design problems as for future systems.

Some common applications for the Colour Generator are a simple, direct control of any RGB light output device such as an RGB led.

This can be for general lighting, architectural lighting, industry lighting or any other application desired.

More advanced applications include, but are not limited to, robotics and machine control and removing the need to send colour information during the transmission of RGB data values for television, Internet and other technologies.

This RGB information can now be directly reconstructed at the output device.

Light-Based Technologies is offering companies an opportunity to market and license this exciting new technology to enhance the performance of their existing products.

It offers all the functions of any available RGB digital structure, and more than most, while producing no heat, requiring less power, and being far less costly to manufacture.
