Abstract: Apparatus and method for creating a natural flame effect using an RGB LED light source and lenses. The output of individually controlled LEDs operated by a simulated-flame-motion algorithm to simulate flame motion is enhanced with the use of multilayer lenticular lens filters to refract the light waves emitted by the LEDs in a manner to create a natural-acting 3D flame effect.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for creating electronically simulated flames is disclosed. The apparatus includes features to allow for remote control of multiple electronic flame apparatuses with hand held transmitters and/or computer control with the use of a transceiver. The apparatus can employ incandescent and LED type bulbs or lamps to create a variety of color and brightness conditions. An Internet-based portal is also disclosed to allow for remote access by authorized users.

Abstract: A remote access and control system for remotely controlling a wide variety of devices using an application installed in a cell phone in conjunction with a control module in communication with the cell phone and the device(s). A portal-based access and control system is also disclosed.

Abstract: A vehicle security system 10 having a sensor 28 which selectively produces output signals based upon a threshold signal comparison, which automatically deactivates upon the presence of transmitter 20, and which may be used in combination with an existing vehicle security system 106.

Abstract: Several remote control and signaling systems 10, 80 allow for the remote operational control of an apparatus 20, by a transmitter 14. These systems 10, 80 obviate the need for a line of sight relationship between transmitter 14 and control apparatus 20 and are further adapted to receive original control signal 15 and to thereafter generate a relatively high frequency signal 22, to facilitate this desired control. Moreover, a transmitter mounting assembly 90 is adapted to removably mount several dissimilar transmitters 98, 100, 102 and which allows for the remote control of a plurality of apparatuses 20 in an efficient manner.
