1. A portable lamp comprisinga light source for generating at least one light beam;
- a control module for controlling a brightness and a geometry of said light beam;
a battery for supplying said light source;
a light sensor for measuring the brightness of said light source;
first bidirectional wireless communication circuits for exchanging commands, parameters and/or configuration data with at least one mobile information handling system, comprising;
a receiving unit for establishing a downlink communication channel for transmitting said commands, parameters and/or configuration data to the lamp;
a transmitting unit for establishing an uplink communication channel for the transmission of commands, parameters and/or lamp configuration data to said mobile information handling systemwherein the uplink communication channel is configured to receive values representative of measured brightness, the mobile information handling system is configured to determine a brightness and a proper diffusion coefficient to use, and the downlink communication channel is configured to transmit commands for controlling and adjusting the brightness and the diffusion coefficient.

Abstract
A portable lamp, such as a headlamp, comprising wireless bidirectional communication means for exchanging configuration instructions, parameters and/or data with at least one mobile information processing system. This mobile processing system establishes a downlink for the transmission of said configuration instructions, parameters and/or data to the lamp. The lamp can establish an uplink for the transmission of configuration instructions, parameters and/or data from the lamp to said mobile information processing system.

15. A method of controlling the operation of a portable lamp having a light source for generating at least one light beam, control means for controlling luminosity and a geometry of said light beam, and a battery for supplying said light source, said method comprising the steps of:
-
establishing a bidirectional and wireless communication between the lamp and a mobile information handling system, comprising a downlink communication channel to the lamp and an uplink communication channel to said mobile information handling system; said downlink communication channel is used for the transmission of said commands and/or configuration data to the lamp; and
said uplink communication channel is used for the transmission of the lamp operating parameters to said mobile processing system informationwherein the uplink communication channel receives values representative of measured brightness, the mobile information handling system determines a brightness and a proper diffusion coefficient to use, and the downlink communication channel is configured to transmit commands for controlling and adjusting the brightness and the diffusion coefficient. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
