An advertising display device includes a base body, a light-guiding unit, a light-emitting unit and an audio and video output unit. Therefore, the audio and video output unit plays the advertising film, and the light-emitting unit carries out the demonstration of the light source in conjunction with the light-guiding unit at the time of playing the advertising film to increase visual effects and attract the attention of consumers for achieving a better advertising effectiveness.

One embodiment provides a mapping device including a memory configured to store instructions. A processor is configured to execute the instructions to: receive geolocation information for the mapping device from a global positioning system (GPS) device; receive unique identification information; transmit the geolocation information and the unique identification information through a network; and cause an update to prior geolocation information that corresponds to an address in a mapping database.

A self-contained illuminated sign for mounting on a vehicle is disclosed. The sign includes a front panel, a rear panel situated opposite and substantially parallel to the front panel in spaced relation therefrom to define a space therebetween, and a light source comprising a plurality of LEDs. The light source is positioned between the front and rear panels and is configured to emit light that emanates from the front panel. The front panel is thus backlit to display indicia. A system for supporting a self-contained illuminated sign on a vehicle is also disclosed. The system includes the sign and a separate mounting frame mountable on a vehicle. The mounting frame is configured to removably receive the sign and, when the sign is received in the mounting frame, to surround a perimeter of the sign while permitting visibility of the front display area. Related methods are also disclosed.

A mark and sign illuminating device and system. The device is a device in which a transparent light guide layer (1203), a light reflecting layer (1204) and border rims (1251, 1252) are formed integrally. An LED illuminating light source LED1 and an LED illuminating light source LED2 are provided in the transparent light guide layer (1203). The reflective layer (1204) is provided with overlapping incidence of effective incident angles within the range of 360 degrees in the transverse direction and within the range of about 1 degree to about 179 degrees in the longitudinal direction, so that wide effective reflection angles and observation angles are formed. The advantage is that marks, signs and warning marks can be identified, seen and read more easily.

Parallel light traveling in a direction perpendicular to an outgoing surface having a curved surface is emitted. A light guide member according to one or more embodiments may include: an incident surface where light from a light source enters; at least one reflective surface that reflects the light having entered from the incident surface; and an outgoing surface that is formed of a curved surface and emits the light reflected by the reflective surface. The reflective surface reflects the light having entered from the light source in a direction in which the incident angle of the light incident on the outgoing surface is constant.

Disclosed is a product comprising a luminous surface, the product comprising a light guide (10) providing said luminous surface, said light guide comprising a plurality of scattering elements (12) for producing a substantially homogeneous light output across said luminous surface; and a first solid state lighting element (20) arranged to emit a beam of light (30) into the light guide; wherein the light guide further comprises a body (40) arranged to create a region (50) in the light guide shaded from said beam.

An illuminated address display for a building and residence having a housing with a front wall with an inclined upper portion and vertical lower portion, solar cells on the inclined upper portion and a group of small rectangular panels suspended from the lower portion of the housing. On the small rectangular housing there is an address identifier consisting of alphanumeric digits which disclose the address of the residence or building. The alphanumeric digits have segments which extend through the panels and are backlit by light emitting diodes which are mounted on a removable cover on the bottom of the housing. Inside of the housing are batteries and a solar charge controller to prevent overcharging of the batteries and an on/off switch.

An advertising apparatus is capable of motion sensitive illumination and 180 viewing, wherein the advertising apparatus comprises: a top piece; a bottom piece; a back piece adapted for mounting the advertising apparatus to an external structure; a front display piece adapted for displaying graphics, wherein the front display piece has a convex shape, and wherein the top piece, the bottom piece, the back piece, and the front display piece are mechanically coupled together; an illumination source for illuminating the front display piece, wherein the front display piece is illuminated when the illumination source is active; a multifaceted motion sensor for detecting motion of a person, wherein the multifaceted motion sensor is configured to trigger the illumination source when said person's heat moves across at least two facets of the multifaceted motion sensor; a wireless transmitter, wherein the wireless transmitter has a transmission radius, wherein the wireless transmitter is capable of detecting a person carrying a wireless-enabled device when said person passes within the transmission radius of the wireless transmitter, and wherein the wireless transmitter delivers advertising and marketing content to said wireless-enabled device; and a power source, wherein the illumination source, the motion sensor, and the wireless transmitter are coupled to the power source.

An aircraft interior light unit having a light output over an extended light emission area includes a flat light distribution body having a front surface, through which the light output is coupled out, and a back surface, wherein at least one of the front surface and the back surface of the flat light distribution body has a plurality of surface irregularities.

A lighted mounting apparatus for a promotional glass holder including a channel which is lined on the bottom by a LED strip, a pair of extrusions to receive and hold a promotional glass, and a low voltage power supply.
