ENHANCED VISUALIZATION ILLUMINATION SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An enhanced illumination system comprising:
- a light source configured to produce a light beam;
an angling device configured to receive light produced by the light source and configured to be adjusted to a first position for reflecting at least a portion of the light beam in a first angled direction, and further configured to be adjusted to a second position for allowing the light beam to bypass the angling device;
a mirror configured to reflect at least a portion of the light beam in response to the angling device being adjusted to the first position;
a first output port for outputting the at least a portion of the light beam reflected by the mirror; and
a second output port for outputting the light beam bypassing the angling device in response to the angling device being adjusted to the second position.

Abstract
A first light source producing a first light beam with a first intensity and a second light source producing a second light beam with a second intensity. A light filter device receives the first light beam and transmits a filtered portion of the first light beam. A first angling device reflects the filtered portion of the first light beam in a first angled direction and a second angling device reflects the second light beam in a second angled direction. A mirror receives and in turn reflects the filtered portion of the first light beam reflected by the first angling device and the second light beam reflected by the second angling device to form a converged light beam with a third intensity.

8. A method for generating enhanced illumination, the method comprising:
-
producing by a first light source a first light beam with a first intensity; producing by a second light source a second light beam with a second intensity; receiving the first light beam by a light filter device and transmitting a filtered portion of the first light beam; reflecting by a first angling device the filtered portion of the first light beam in a first angled direction; reflecting by a second angling device at least a portion of the second light beam in a second angled direction; receiving and reflecting by a mirror at least the filtered portion of the first light beam reflected by the first angling device and at least the portion of the second light beam reflected by the second angling device for forming a converged light beam with a third intensity; and outputting the converged light beam at an output port. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
