  • Patent number: 10850436
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing an interior material, which can implement various and distinct light emission effects by disposing a light-blocking layer configured to block light emitted from a light source at a location adjacent to an inner transparent film and then allowing the component of the transparent film to fill lighting grooves formed by laser-etching. Since a tape configured to support an island is employed, stable manufacturing is possible throughout an overall process.

  • Patent number: 10327314
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system for integrated remote control of wireless lighting devices and wireless electric/electronic devices in a wireless network environment. In the wireless network environment, a management server transmits a lighting control command and a device control command for individually driving and controlling wireless lighting devices and wireless electric/electronic devices to the wireless lighting devices on a main wireless node (i.e., first wireless node) over a communication network. Therefore, a user can wirelessly and remotely drive and control various wireless electric/electronic devices as well as wireless lighting devices through the management server without time and place constrains.
