1. A connected lighting system comprising:
a substrate defining a broad face;
a first set of light emitting elements mounted to the broad face, each light emitting element of the first set of light emitting elements having a first color parameter;
a second set of light emitting elements each configured to emit light having a fixed color parameter different from the first color parameter, the second set of light emitting elements being mounted to the broad face, the first and second sets of light emitting elements being arranged at at least two different radial positions of the broad face of the substrate;
two or more groups of at least two distinct light emitting elements clustered together to define one or more areas free of light emitting elements between adjacently positioned of the two or more groups,
wherein:
each of the two or more groups comprises a light emitting element from the first set and a light emitting element from the second set,
a group distance is defined between each adjacently positioned of the two or more groups,
an element distance is defined between at least two of the at least two distinct light emitting elements for each group,
each element distance is less than each group distance, and
at least one of the two or more groups consists of fewer light emitting elements than at least one other one of the two or more groups;
a diffuser arranged proximal the broad face, the diffuser cooperatively enclosing the first and second sets of light emitting elements with the substrate;
a communication module comprising an antenna; and
a processor operatively connected to the communication module, the set of light emitting elements, and the second set of light emitting elements, the processor configured to:
control the first set of light emitting elements with a predetermined intensity; and
control relative intensities of one or more of the second set of light emitting elements to cooperatively emit light having a first color parameter value, wherein the first color parameter value is determined based on the predetermined visible intensity, the fixed wavelength, and a target color parameter value received from the communication module.
