Gardco Fascia Wash : The Fascia Wash is a wall mounted luminaire designed to light large wall surfaces as evenly as possible with as wide a spacing as possible. The luminaire offers an alternative to floodlighting which requires luminaires mounted away from the building. A barrel style Fresnel lens was used in conjunction with internal reflector optics to produce the desired performance. The luminaire stands only 14" off of the wall surface yet achieves a mounting height of 20' and a spacing of 40'. |

EST Genesis Horn Strobe Fire Alarm : LTI designed a patented reflector/refractor optical system using a white diffuse reflector that enabled a completely new product to be designed with a priority put on the product's appearance. This product is the first to transform the utilitarian devices which have historically populated this industry into a component which compliments architecture. The unique optical system not only allowed for a lower profile product, it also produced a better light pattern allowing it to be safely seen from more viewing angles than other devices on the market. |

Type III and Type V Glass Refractor Design : Two new glass refractors were designed for an outdoor lighting manufacturer to add to their existing range of optical systems. The new refractors needed to provide improved spacing performance over competitive products based on illuminance and roadway luminance criteria. To design the new refractors, LTI developed specialized refractor design tools so that various prism configurations could be quickly created and analyzed in Photopia. The optimization of such a complex part would not have been possible without the ability to automatically generate the prism profiles for the inner and outer surfaces. |

LED Headlamp Design : Reflectors have been designed for halogen and LED headlamps and lanterns for the leading outdoor equipment manufacturer Black Diamond. The designs improve upon previous products by using a multiple reflectors styles, including double faceting to produce an artifact-free, medium flood beam pattern. Some headlamps provide a round beam shape even with a reflector that has cutouts for additional LED's. The new Apollo lantern provides glare free illumination by using a hidden source and double bounce reflector system. |

Type III and Type V Roadway Cutoff Reflectors : Two new reflectors were designed for an outdoor lighting manufacturer to add to their existing range of optical systems. The new reflectors needed to provide an IES Cutoff distribution while matching or improving upon the spacing performance of their existing products based on illuminance, roadway luminance and veiling luminance criteria. The new reflectors provided this as well as improvements in the appearance of the light pattern and the overall amount of light on the roadway. The designs were optimized to provide the best performance with the smallest number of assembled parts ensuring that the manufacturing costs were minimized. |

LED Refractor Design : New refractor designs were created to maximize visibility for LED-based mobile signage. Special design characteristics were added to protect lens elements from the environment and implement a smooth exterior lens face to minimize the collection of debris. This new design exceeded all previous performance marks. |
