MIRROR AND CABINET APPARATUS
The present invention is directed to improvements in mirror apparatus. In one embodiment, a lighted mirror apparatus is disclosed that comprises a mirror with first and second light assemblies positioned along opposing first and second sides of the mirror, each transmitting light to the center plane along a primary light path. In another embodiment, a lighted mirror apparatus is disclosed that comprises a mirror and a light assembly having a light source mounted to the mirror, the light assembly includes an illumination element that receives light from the light source and emits at least a portion of that light from its front light emitting surface. In a further embodiment, a cabinet apparatus is disclosed having a door that can be raised or lowered and altered between open and closed angular orientations when raised or lowered.
LAMP ASSEMBLY
A lamp assembly includes a base, a support arm coupled to the base, a housing coupled to the support arm, a mirror supported by the housing, a light arrangement supported in the housing, wherein the base, the support arm, and the housing are reconfigurable between a first configuration where the housing is located vertically above the base and a reflective surface of the mirror is parallel with a worksurface, a second configuration where the housing is located vertically above the base and the reflective surface is perpendicular to the worksurface, and a third configuration where the housing is located at least partially rearward of the base and the reflective surface is substantially perpendicular to the worksurface. The lamp assembly may further include a support member configured to cooperate with the base to support a personal communication device, and a rotatable portion of the housing which controls a light intensity.
VANITY MIRROR
A mirror assembly can include a housing, a mirror, and a light source. In certain embodiments, the mirror is rotatable within a support portion of the mirror assembly. In some embodiments, the mirror assembly includes a light pipe configured to emit a substantially constant amount of light along a periphery of the mirror. In some embodiments, the mirror assembly includes a sensor assembly. The sensor assembly can be configured to adjust the amount of emitted light based on the position of a user in relation to the mirror.
Organic lighting device and lighting equipment
A glazing comprising a luminous means with a substrate having a first main surface, to which a first electrode is applied, a second electrode, and an organic layer stack within an active region of the substrate between the first and the second electrode, wherein the organic layer stack comprises at least one organic layer which is suitable for generating light, wherein the luminous means is arranged between two glass plates of the glazing of a window. Also, storage furniture is disclosed comprising a storage element shaped in planar fashion and having at least one storage surface and at least one radiation-emitting component, and at least one holding apparatus for holding the storage element.
PORTABLE BEAUTY LIGHT KIT
The disclosure concerns a portable beauty light kit, comprising a power management and control unit “PMC” and a plurality of light modules. The PMC comprises: a plurality of charging bays, and a signal transmitting circuit. Each of the individual light modules comprises: a light emitting source, a signal receiving circuit, and a housing. Each of the individual light modules is designed to nest within one of the charging bays of the PMC, wherein they receive a battery charge. Additionally, the light modules are designed to be taken from the charging bays of the PMC and removeably attached to a mirror. The signal receiving circuit of each light module is configured to receive a wireless signal communicated from the signal transmitting circuit of the PMC. The signal receiving circuit modulates a light emitting state associated with each light emitting source based on the signal communicated from the signal transmitting circuit.
Illuminating device
An illumination device that is operable while being transported and that can be placed, or is placed, in an object that can be opened and closed again. The illumination device comprises a first light source, an electric energy storage device, and a switch device that comprises a control unit including a sensor unit with which a first switching unit is transferable from an open switching state into a closed switching state. The first light source is suppliable with electric power from the electric energy storage device when a first sensor is touched and/or when said first sensor detects a motion. The sensor unit comprises a second sensor that at least detects if the object is open or closed. A second switching unit is transferable from an open switching state into a closed switching state in which the first light source and/or a second light source is/are supplied with electric power.
Illuminated mirror
An illuminated mirror having a mirror defining a front surface and a rear surface. The mirror includes a reflective mirror portion and a translucent portion through which light can pass. A housing is secured to the rear surface of the mirror and the housing includes a first surface, a second surface, and a gap extending between the first surface and the second surface. The mirror further includes a light source coupled to a flexible substrate and positioned behind the rear surface of the mirror; and a reflective element secured to the rear surface and positioned adjacent the translucent portion of the mirror. The flexible substrate is secured to the first surface and the second surface.
Apparatus for providing semantic information and a method of operating the same
An apparatus including a display surface for presenting an image of a user; a light emitting portion for using light to convey semantic information to the user; a sensor for measuring the position of the user relative to the light emitting portion; and a control unit to control the light emitting portion based on the measured position of the user relative to the light emitting portion so as to minimize an effect of the light conveying the semantic information provided by the light emitting portion on the presented image of the user.
Smart vanity mirror speaker system
A smart vanity mirror speaker system may include a surface-mounted mirror that includes a mirror on one side and a screen display opposite the mirror, and a module capable of capturing, broadcasting, and recording still photos, audio, and video of a user, wherein the mirror is capable of being adjusted in height and angle. The system may include at least one light ring, a companion device/control panel, and/or an external microphone. The system includes an acoustic chamber connected to a bottom portion of the mirror, the acoustic chamber having a speaker integrated within the acoustic chamber. The acoustic chamber may include a downward-facing full-range driver on a lower end of the acoustic chamber; and a passive base isolator on an upper end of the acoustic chamber. The smart vanity mirror speaker system may pair with at least one Bluetooth®-enabled device or MP3 player.
