1. A system for influencing a state of a user comprising:
- (a) a light source for emitting light influencing the state of the user;
(b) a light controller selectively controlling said emission of said light from said light source, including controlling at least one of;
(1) the spectrum of said light from said light source where said light controller selectively changes said spectrum of said light from a first non-zero range to a second different non-zero range, and;
(2) the duration of said light emission from said light source where said light controller selectively changes said duration of said light, and;
(3) the spatial distribution of said light from said light source where said light controller selectively changes said spatial distribution of said light; and
(4) the timing of said light emission from said light source where said light controller selectively changes said timing of said light; and
(5) the brightness of said light from said light source where said light controller selectively changes said brightness by modifying the brightness of a plurality of sources of light from said light source;
(c) an analysis engine providing a signal to said light controller indicating a desired emission of said light;
where(d) said light controller further automatically modifies without user intervention said emission of said light from said light source based upon said analysis engine, and using feedback received by said light controller and from selective ones of a plurality of light sensors indicative of perceived light provided to the eyes of a user, said feedback based on said system automatically selecting a subset of said plurality of light sensors as being indicative of said perceived light, said subset less than all of said plurality of light sensors.

Abstract
A system for influencing a state of a user including a light source for emitting light influencing the state of the user and a light controller selectively controlling the emission of the light. The emission may include at least one of, the spectrum of said light; the duration of said light; the distribution of said light; the intensity of said light; and the timing of said light. The analysis engine provides a signal to the light controller indicating a desired emission of the light.
