Canadian Intellectual Property Office Awards Patent to Color Kinetics

Color Kinetics Incorporated has announced that it has been awarded a patent in Canada covering its Chromacore technology.

   Chromacore is proprietary digital control technology that underlies Color Kinetics' intelligent solid-state lighting systems and drives multi-color LEDs to generate millions of colors and dynamic lighting effects without the constraints or complexities of conventional light sources. Aspects of the technology also pertain to the control of LEDs in white light applications. Color Kinetics was originally awarded a US patent covering Chromacore in January 2000, a European patent in 2002, a Hong Kong patent in 2003, and now patent number 2,302,227 in Canada.

   "We're very pleased with the recognition of our innovation by the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, which supports our goal to make Chromacore the de facto standard for enabling intelligent solid-state lighting systems," said George Mueller, chairman and CEO, Color Kinetics. "This achievement assists our efforts to extend the company's technology leadership position, OEM and licensing opportunities, and brand recognition to international markets."
