ABSTRACT:
A light-emitting diode (LED) reflector optic includes a reflector having a reflector having a plurality of reflecting surfaces, wherein each one of the plurality of reflecting surfaces is associated with at least one optical axis, each reflecting surface comprising a cross-section that is projected along a curved trajectory and a plurality of LEDs, wherein each one of the plurality of LEDs is positioned in a line parallel to the cross-section of an associated one of the plurality of reflecting surfaces and relative to the associated reflecting surface of the plurality of reflecting surfaces such that a central light-emitting axis of each one of the plurality of LEDs is angled relative to the at least one optical axis of the associated reflecting surface of the plurality of reflecting surfaces at about 90° and such that each of the reflecting surfaces redirects and collimates a light output of a respective each one of the plurality of LEDs at an angle of about 90° with respect to the central light emitting axis of each one of the plurality of LEDs, wherein each one of the plurality of reflecting surfaces receives light from each one of the plurality of LEDs from a focal distance of the associated one of the plurality of reflecting surfaces.
