1. An LED-based replacement light, comprising:

  • multiple LEDs, the LEDs having different logical control addresses associated among them, with each logical control address subjecting one or more of the LEDs associated therewith to individual control, wherein the multiple LEDs comprise;

    one or more first LEDs associated with a first logical control address, the LED-based replacement light being configured to emanate light emitted by the one or more first LEDs according to a first spatial distribution profile, andone or more second LEDs associated with a second logical control address different from the first logical control address, the LED-based replacement light being configured to emanate light emitted by the one or more second LEDs according to a second spatial distribution profile different from the first spatial distribution profile;

    one or more first optical devices associated with the first logical control address and configured to distribute light emanating from the one or more first LEDs in a first way; and

    one or more second optical devices associated with the second logical control address and configured to distribute light emanating from the one or more second LEDs in a second way different from the first way;

    a controller in communication with the LEDs, the controller configured to generate signals that individually control operating states of the one or more LEDs associated with each logical control address;

    a housing for the LEDs; and
