  • Patent number: 6462662
    Abstract: A wireless remote cueing apparatus controlled by an electronic triggering apparatus used to cue performers in a theater, film production stage, exterior set or other performing arts environment. The cueing device is a small disc which contains electronic components able to receive coded RF transmissions and convert specific signals into physical vibration patterns or visual indicators such as a flashing LED. The triggering apparatus is an electronic component able to transmit coded RF signals to many different remote cueing devices. The triggering device has a button associated with each remote cueing mechanism; when the button is pressed, the associated remote cueing device responds by vibrating or flashing a LED. Many triggering apparatus can be interfaced to a central computer running a computer program which facilitates more complex cueing arrangements.
