CONTROLLER FOR A LAMP
First Claim
1. A controller for a lamp, comprising:
- an input terminal configured to receive;
a requested-colour-signal representative of a requested-colour-value to be provided by the lamp; and
one or more temperature-values associated with the lamp;
an output terminal configured to provide a lamp-control-signal to the lamp;
a full-colour-module configured to provide a full-colour-lamp-control-signal for the output terminal;
a stabilization-module configured to provide a stabilized-lamp-control-signal for the output terminal; and
a mode controller configured to compare the requested-colour-value with a threshold value, and;
if the requested-colour-value satisfies the threshold value, then instruct the stabilization-module to provide the stabilized-lamp-control-signal to the output terminal;
if the requested-colour-value does not satisfy the threshold value, then instruct the full-colour-module to provide the full-colour-lamp-control-signal to the output terminal;
wherein, the stabilization-module is configured to;
generate stabilized-colour-values based on the temperature-values; and
provide the stabilized-lamp-control-signal based on the requested-colour-value and the stabilized-colour-values; and
wherein, the full-colour-module is configured to;
provide the full-colour-lamp-control-signal based on the requested-colour-value.

Abstract
A controller for a lamp, comprising an input terminal for receiving a requested-colour-signal representative of a requested-colour-value to be provided by the lamp and one or more temperature-values associated with the lamp. The controller includes a full-colour-module for providing a full-colour-lamp-control-signal for an output terminal; a stabilization-module for providing a stabilized-lamp-control-signal for the output terminal; and a mode controller for comparing the requested-colour-value with a threshold value. If the requested-colour-value satisfies the threshold value, then the stabilization-module provides the stabilized-lamp-control-signal to the output terminal. If the requested-colour-value does not satisfy the threshold value, then the full-colour-module provides the full-colour-lamp-control-signal to the output terminal. The stabilization-module is configured to: generate stabilized-colour-values based on the temperature-values; and provide the stabilized-lamp-control-signal based on the requested-colour-value and the stabilized-colour-values. The full-colour-module is configured to provide the full-colour-lamp-control-signal based on the requested-colour-value.

15. A method of controlling a lamp, the method comprising:
-
receiving a requested-colour-signal representative of a requested-colour-value to be provided by the lamp; receiving one or more temperature-values associated with the lamp; comparing the requested-colour-value with a threshold value; if the requested-colour-value satisfies the threshold value, then; generating stabilized-colour-values based on the temperature-values; and providing a stabilized-lamp-control-signal based on the requested-colour-value and the stabilized-colour-values if the requested-colour-value does not satisfy the threshold value, then; providing a full-colour-lamp-control-signal based on the requested-colour-value; and providing a lamp-control-signal to the lamp based on the stabilized-lamp-control-signal or the full-colour-lamp-control-signal.
