Abstract
Illumination assemblies, components, and related methods are described. A plurality of illumination tiles may be arranged in a two-dimensional array. In one embodiment, an illumination tile comprises at least one solid state light-emitting device and a light guide including an edge constructed and arranged to receive light from the solid state light-emitting device, and a top emission surface constructed and arranged to emit light received by the edge, wherein the solid state light-emitting device is disposed under the top emission surface. In another embodiment, an illumination tile comprises at least one solid state light-emitting device and a light guide including a light input portion including an edge constructed and arranged to receive light from the light-emitting device and a top surface, and a light extraction portion including a top emission surface constructed and arranged to emit light received by the edge, wherein the top surface of the light input portion is offset vertically from the top emission surface of the light extraction portion.
