Bi-Chromatic Illumination Apparatus
First Claim
1. An illumination apparatus for providing utility illumination to an environment while limiting a level of light pollution generated thereby, the apparatus comprising:
- a) one or more first light emitting elements for generating light within a first wavelength range;
b) one or more second light-emitting elements for generating light within a second wavelength range;
c) a control system operatively coupled to the one or more first light-emitting elements and the one or more second light-emitting elements, the control system configured to control activation of the one or more first and one or more second light-emitting elements for generating utility illumination;
wherein the first wavelength range is about yellow and the second wavelength range is about blue.

Abstract
The present invention provides an illumination apparatus comprising one or more first light-emitting elements and one or more second light-emitting elements and a control system configured to control the operation of the one or more first and one or more second light-emitting elements. As the illumination apparatus according to the present invention is configured to generate utility illumination using two different and substantially monochromatic light-emitting element light sources, the light pollution resulting from the utility illumination generated by the illumination apparatus is reduced, when compared to a polychromatic light source.
