Abstract: Lighting device having a number of light sources for illumination an area around the lighting device. The lighting device including capabilities for generating illumination when a primary power source is unavailable. The light device may include a secondary power source for use in powering the lighting device when the primary power source is unavailable. The lighting device may include multiple operating modes, optionally depending on the active power source.

Abstract: An pathway indicating luminaire for use in an auxiliary lighting system contains at least one source of primary light and at least one light emitting diode. A switching system provides energy from a storage cell to the light emitting diode upon certain conditions, generally by time or by lack of ambient light.

Abstract: A system of controlling media devices configured for outputting signals to a surrounding area. The system including a control strategy for controlling operation of the media devices to execute operations according to a common schedule and a communications strategy for use in communicating the control strategy between the media devices in such a manner as to facilitate distribution of the control strategy to the media devices desired to operate according to the common timeline.

Abstract: A speaker assembly for a structural pole is provided, as well as a method for attaching a speaker assembly to a structural pole. The speaker assembly is provided with an elongate housing mounted to banner brackets that are affixed to the structural pole. The housing is sized to provide an aesthetic appearance that corresponds to a banner attached to the banner brackets. A speaker, or a plurality of speakers are provided within the housing for transmitting acoustic vibrations to a corresponding environment.

Abstract: Method and system of controlling lighting fixtures. The lighting fixtures being associated with controllable devices having features for emitting light. The control thereof may be based on a show schedule or other features used to designate desired operation of the lighting fixtures.

Abstract: An intelligent light fixture is shown which allows for hands-free or automatic control of any desired combination of the color of the lighting beam, the focus position of the lighting beam, the movement of the lighting beam and projection of patterns created by the lighting beam. The intelligent light fixture is configured and mounted in such a way that all of the above can be accomplished from a single mounting position on top, or of within, the structure that holds the intelligent light fixture. The intelligent light fixture may be contained within a housing and said housing maybe mounted to a light pole.

Abstract: A multi-function lighting module providing two or more possible light source capabilities, such as ambient and/or focused and or emergency lighting where power is supplied by an existing bus system, and the module is connected to the existing bus system by a tool-less means of connection.

Abstract: A support base for supporting a structural pole is provided. The support base includes a frame having an internal cavity for housing hardware, such as a speaker assembly, that is associated with the corresponding structural pole. The frame is generally open laterally thereabout for permitting access to the internal cavity. A footing region of the support base secures the frame to an underlying support surface and a platform atop the frame receives the structural pole thereon. The frame is sized to receive an ornamental protective cover thereabout for enhancing the aesthetic perspective of the base and for protecting the hardware within the frame internal cavity.

Abstract: A color changing light fixture is provided for producing indirect self-illuminating effects within the fixture, which comprises a housing or reflector having an indirect light source and, optionally, a primary light source mounted within. The fixture's self-illuminating effects are conducive to adding to the design scheme of a room or an area being lighted. The fixture may be recessed, surface mounted, suspended, or wall mounted. The indirect light source, which is powered by a low voltage power source, includes one or more light emitting diode (LED) strips that may be fixed or adjustable, and includes the capability of being completely or partially concealed within the fixture. The LEDs can provide a plurality of visible colors (including white), which can be mixed by any number of control devices, like music and video mixers, and door opening and occupancy sensors.

Abstract: A recessed, adjustable, low voltage track light is shown comprising a recess housing made of any suitable material, and having one or more low voltage lighting rails fixed, or adjustably mounted, within the housing. One or more low voltage lamps can be mounted to the lighting rail or rails anywhere along their linear length. A low voltage power supply is electrically connected to the lighting rail or rails. The low voltage power supply may be mounted within or without the housing. The housing may be installed within a ceiling or wall cavity, or be suspended in space.

Abstract: An auxiliary lighting system contains at least one photoelectric cell to convert ambient light into energy and at least one light emitting diode. The photoelectric cell converts ambient light into energy which is stored in a storage cell. A switching system provides energy from the storage cell to the light emitting diode upon certain conditions, generally by time or by lack of ambient light.
