  • Publication number: 20210147044
    Abstract: A light control system configured to lock-out the predetermined color spectrums corresponding to red, green, white and blue (or other jurisdictionally restricted colors). In some embodiments, when a specific trigger is detected, then the predetermined color spectrum is prohibited from being displayed (i.e. locked-out). If a trigger is detected, the user is only permitted to display colors outside of the predetermined locked-out color spectrum so as to prevent confusion by third party vessels.

  • Patent number: 10532693
    Abstract: An undercarriage light assembly includes a light element, a translucent jacket exterior to and surrounding the light element, and an outer housing positioned exterior to and surrounding at least a portion of the translucent jacket. The outer housing includes a first side, a second side connected to the first side, and a third side connected to the second side. The first and third sides are angled toward one another. An opening between the first and third sides allows for light to pass from the light element through the outer housing.

  • Publication number: 20190353311
    Abstract: A diffused flexible LED linear light assembly (100) includes a flexible LED linear light component (102) having a flexible base (104) with individual LEDs (106) spaced longitudinally along the direction of the component (102). A partially translucent housing (120) houses the flexible LED linear light component (102). A curved section (124) of the translucent housing (120) varies in thickness in its lateral surfaces. The thickness may be varied so as to allow a relatively higher percentage of light transmission in areas of weakest LED output strengths. This light output intensity through the translucent housing, in view of the thickness variation, is substantially even or constant circumferentially and radially through the translucent section (124) of the translucent housing (120).

  • Patent number: 10125964
    Abstract: A linear light connector includes a connector base comprising a bottom section, and first and second sidewalls. A first portion of the connector base is configured to receive a first piece of linear light therein. One or more electrical contacts extend along a length of the connector base and include at least one tip extending above a surface of the bottom section within the first portion. The tips may be arranged to align with electrical conductive paths of a piece of linear light positioned in the first portion. A cap may connect to the connector base to apply a downward force to the linear light and engage the linear light with the tips of the contacts.

  • Patent number: 9909719
    Abstract: An LED linear light assembly (300) comprises an elongated LED linear light component (302) having a series of spaced-apart LEDs (306) mounted on a base (304). A housing (320) laterally encloses the LED linear light component (302). The housing (320) includes a curved section (324) having translucent properties for providing a lens for the LEDs (306). The housing (320) also includes a transparent and clear bottom section (322) coupled to or otherwise integrally formed with the curved section (324). The transparency of the bottom section (322) permits a user to sever the continuous LED linear light assembly (300) and form individual segments by viewing the appropriate cutting positions through the bottom section (322).
