| Title: |
Programmable Progressive, Directing Lighting Systems: Apparatus and Method |
| Abstract: |
Systems and methods for providing guidance and entertainment to people
within a structure, through sequentially activated illuminating devices.
In some embodiments, the illuminating devices receive instructions to
illuminate the perimeter of a structure in a sequence that indicates the
exit of the structure. In other embodiments, the illuminating devices
receive instructions to illuminate a surface of a structure, such as a
wall of a corridor, to track the movement of at least one object or
person walking or otherwise moving in the structure. The instructions to
the illuminating devices are sent from sensing and detecting devices or
alternatively, from a command and control center, in response to changes
detected in the environment of the structure.
