Abstract: A vehicle operator signaling system includes a pair of units with each having a control circuit and a transceiver coupled to the control circuit. A plurality of emitters is coupled to the control circuit. A plurality of actuators is coupled to the control circuit and each is associated with one of the emitters. The transceiver of one of the housings emits a distinct signal associated with an actuated one of the actuators and the transceiver of the one of the housings turns on the emitter associated with the distinct signal.

Abstract: A vehicle operator distress signaling system includes a pair of housings each having a control circuit and a transceiver coupled to the control circuit. A plurality of light emitters is electrically coupled to the control circuit. A plurality of actuators is electrically coupled to the control circuit and each is associated with one of the light emitters. The transceiver of one of the housings emits a distinct radio signal associated with an actuated one of the actuators and the transceiver of the one of the housings turns on the light emitter associated with the distinct radio signal. An effective transmission distance of radio signals between the housings is less than 350 m such that when the receiving transceiver loses radio signals after the effective transmission distance has been exceeded, the light emitters associated with lost ones of the radio signals turn off.
