I am a dentist who loves LED lights!
I am interested in making an improved overhead light for the dental chair (for personal use only.. its just a hobby) - the lights that are currently used produce yellowish light, with far too much flood. I want a light that has perfect spotlight like edges and shaped in a rectangle.
I have messed around with optics before but it was more a trial and error sort of thing. I ordered a bunch of random lenses off dealextreme.com, and using 3 of them got a decent spotlight, though it wasn't perfect.
Could anyone point me in the right direction for a more methodical process of creating a spotlight using lenses? Thanks!
