HOME APPLIANCE PROVIDED WITH VIEWING WINDOW
Proposed is a home appliance in which a reception space defined in the home appliance can be seen from the outside without opening a door through a viewing window. In the home appliance, the viewing window is mounted to the door, and when a user knocks on the door, a knock input by the user is detected and the inside of the reception space is illuminated such that the inside of the reception space can be seen from the outside through the viewing window. Accordingly, a user can see the inside of the reception space by a simple motion without opening the door.
Overhead light fixtures and methods
An overhead light fixture includes a driver assembly and a light-emitting assembly. The driver assembly includes a driver and a housing. The light-emitting assembly is operably connected to the driver and configured for downward emission of light from a light source of the light-emitting assembly. The light-emitting assembly is detachably secured to the driver assembly. The light fixture is configured to be mounted to a canopy sheet of an overhead canopy, with the driver assembly disposed above the canopy sheet and the light-emitting assembly disposed below the canopy sheet. The driver assembly is optionally configured so that, when the light-emitting assembly is detached from the driver assembly, the driver is removable downwardly through the base portion. A bezel is optionally disposed around a lens of the light-emitting assembly, for aesthetic reasons and/or for controlling a degree of lateral emission of light from the light fixture.
Variable power supply security light
A security light having optional connection to multiple power supplies. The lighting controller can sense the appropriate connected supply and automatically connect to three different power supplies which include house voltage connection through a typical junction box, a remote solar charging station, and on-board batteries that can be used as a third backup power supply. Additional implementations include power outage detection and backup illumination along with low voltage power supply from a mounting structure.
Sequential and coordinated flashing of electronic roadside flares with active energy conservation
Electronic light emitting flares and related methods. Flares of the present invention include various features such as self-synchronization, remote control, motion-actuated or percussion-actuated features, dynamic shifting between side-emitting and top-emitting light emitters in response to changes in positional orientation (e.g., vertical vs. horizontal) of the flare; overrides to cause continued emission from side-emitting or top-emitting light emitters irrespective of changes in the flare's positional orientation; use of the flare(s) for illumination of traffic cones and other hazard marking or traffic safety objects or devices, group on/off features, frequency specificity to facilitate use of separate groups of flares in proximity to one another, selection and changing of flashing patterns and others.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LIGHT FIELD ILLUMINATOR SHEET-BASED DYNAMIC LIGHTING OUTPUT
A digitally controlled LED illuminator sheet that produces far-field illumination patterns or light field distributions that increase light utilization and application efficiency. A dynamic directional LEDs (or other kinds of solid-state light sources) sheet is positioned under each lenslet of a microlens array. Individual LED beam pointing direction depends on off-axis position relative to optical axis of lenslet. Individual beams from independent LEDs form illumination pixels at the illumination plane or within a volume space and can be modulated in intensity. Illumination pixels partially overlap in far-field illumination plane and illumination volume. Over a large illumination space many illumination pixels will partially superimposed on neighboring illumination pixels, with the overlap being in increments smaller than the size of a pixel. The LEDs can be digitally turned on or off and/or pulse width or amplitude modulated to produce far-field illumination patterns or light field distributions with spectral efficiency and efficacious intensity.
INTELLIGENT MUSIC LAMP STRING
The present disclosure provides an intelligent music lamp string. The intelligent music lamp string includes a human body sensing module, a control module, a music control module and a lamp string. The human body sensing module is configured to sense a human body and output a sensing signal when the human body is sensed. The control module is configured to receive the sensing signal and output an enable signal and a control signal according to the sensing signal. The music control module is configured to receive the enable signal and play a predetermined music according to the enable signal. The lamp string is configured to receive the control signal and start to work according to the control signal, a duty cycle of the control signal in each cycle corresponding to beats of each section of the predetermined music.
Multifunctional Finger-Activated Device
A multifunctional finger-mounted device includes a finger mount configured for attachment to at least one of a user’s fingers, a tool holder positioned on the finger mount and configured to receive at least one tool, an electronics unit connected to the at least one tool, and a switch for actuating the electronics unit. The switch is actuated by bending and straightening a user’s finger.
