Abstract: A decorative lighting system comprising a furniture item having an installed lighting unit, the lighting unit comprising a light source; a wireless communication module connected with the light source, the wireless communication module configured to wirelessly connect in an ad hoc manner with one or more wireless communication devices; a power supply connected with the light source and the wireless communication module, and an enclosure for holding the light source, the wireless communication module, and the power supply.

Abstract: A system includes an ultraviolet c-band radiation detector to enable detection of radiation during search and rescue operations, at least a portion of the radiation including ultraviolet c-band radiation, and a stimulus generator configured to generate a stimulus in response to detected ultraviolet c-band radiation. Further embodiments may include multiple synchronized ultraviolet c-band detectors to enhance system sensitivity and facilitate detection of relatively weak radiation sources, relatively distant sources, and/or radiation scattered about an environment.
