Abstract

The present invention relates generally to low glare illumination arrays and luminaires which act to disperse light into a three-dimensional space providing more uniform and even illumination with reduced glare. The present invention also relates to luminaires and illumination systems employing an array of solid state light sources with shaped bezel light diffusers which act to reduce glare and provide more uniform and even illumination of surfaces and spaces. The present invention also relates to luminaires employing a plurality of linear LED arrays equipped with shaped bezel light diffusers collectively oriented at a common acute angle, optionally including internally curved reflective or non-reflective surfaces to provide improved illumination with reduced glare.
