The invention provides conspicuity devices and methods. A first embodiment includes a glove with at least one elongate lighting device adapted and configured to admit light having an advantageous spectral energy distribution. Additional articles of clothing are provided herein for enhanced conspicuity, such as for emergency workers and athletes.

An internally illuminated transparent rail, such as a handrail, is disclosed. The rail is fabricated from polycarbonate or the like, and contains one or more series of lighting elements such as LEDs. The LEDs are connected to a programmable controller which stores preloaded programming control sequences and features, and which can also receive commands wirelessly from e.g. a hand held user interface such as a cellular telephone. The rail includes stanchions for mounting to an environmental object such as a transport vehicle or a static structure.

The present invention belongs to the nautical field, specifically to the area of buoys. The invention relates to a buoy for checking the condition of a person or an object tied to the said buoy. The essence of the buoy according to the invention is in that it comprises a casing, which floats on the water surface, and a capsule with a camera and lights, which can be separated from the casing with a UTP cable and can be lowered down to an anchor, an object or a person. The wire rope, which is connected to the lower part of the capsule can be connected to any anchor, a fixed object on the sea bed or a person. The camera captures images and/or video and sends data via the UTP cable to the processor, and the processors sends data via wireless network (WiFi or similar) to the mobile application installed on the user device, which is preferably a smart phone, a tablet, computer or a similar device. The user can visually check the condition of the anchor and simultaneously monitor the anchor position via one or more satellite systems for global navigation, and the position is displayed graphically and numerically on the application on a mobile telephone, a tablet or a computer.

A substantially hollow wingsail is configured to enable electrical components to be situated within the wingsail. In particular, the wingsail may be configured to contain the solar panels used to power the other electrical components of the vessel, as well as other items that are conventionally situated on the exterior of the vessel, such as antennas, navigation lights, and so on. The surface of the wingsail may include transparent or translucent areas to provide light to the solar panels, as well as optical and electromagnetic reflective areas within the wingsail to enhance the performance of the solar panels and antennas. The wingsail may also include an internal light that illuminates the translucent areas of the wingsail for enhanced visibility to other vessels.
