Methods for controlling sex of oviparous embryos using light and temperature
The sex of embryos in eggs is influenced or controlled through the application of light having selected wavelengths and heat in order to promote the development of embryos of a selected sex. An incubating device is provided having an interior cavity that can be sealed from an outside, and having a plurality of lighting elements disposed in the interior cavity. ... Once Innovations Inc
System and method of enhancing reproduction in avian
Methods and systems of promoting fertilization of eggs of an avian. While inseminating a plurality of avian eggs a spectrum substantially concentrated within a narrow range of wavelength irradiates the plurality of inseminated avian eggs to increase the motility of the sperm to increase the probability of conception of avian from the inseminated eggs.. ...

Light sources adapted to spectral sensitivity of diurnal avians and humans
Various apparatus and associated methods involve a light source that provides light at wavelengths that substantially correlate to local maxima in the spectral sensitivity of a diurnal avian. In an illustrative example, the light source may output light primarily in wavelength bands that are not substantially absorbed by colored oil droplets and/or visual pigment in at least one type of cone in the eye of a diurnal avian. ...

An analog ac circuit for light emitting diode (led) groups that provides continuously emitted light through a dimming process from 100% relative light output to 5% of relative light output. The analog ac circuit utilizes ancillary circuitry that bypasses a first series interconnection of a first led group and presents a capacitor electrically connected to an ancillary transistor to provide constant current at above a current threshold to cause the first led group to continuously emit light even through a dimming process.. ...
