in Paris on the base of the “Mona Lisa” projector.
Sklaer gets “smart projector” patent granted.
The patent relates to lighting devices for exhibition objects in Museum, Art, or commercial galleries and more generally for any application where the light spectrum has to be monitored according to varying external ambient , spatial conditions or references. The set up comprises typically lighting devices capable of varying the light intensity or spectrum, light sensors with restrictive optics able to analyze the light spectrum of targeted or reference zones and a controller with on board algorithms and references, possibly linked to internet data bases. In its simplest version such a set up can be used to maintain the illuminance of a working surface. Originally the system has been developed to maintain the illuminance and color temperature of the statue of the Winged Victory of Samothrace in Le Louvre in 2016. For large spaces in Museum or Art and commercial galleries, a central photometric measuring device can be used, as the LiME, Light Mapping Equipment to control several projectors on different targets. More sophisticated developments involve the use of the camera of a smart phone as sensor with an App to analyze a scene and potentially collect or compare data from internet, what is commonly referred as Artificial Intelligence.
