  • Publication number: 20160249434
    Abstract: An emergency lighting system initiated by wireless or wired alarm signal of a smoke detector or other alarm device. Once alarm signal is received, the emergency lighting system will cause any light connected to the system to be turned on providing light for any persons present, or will pulse the light as a visual warning indicator to those present. The lighting system causes connected light(s) to pulse during a daytime light condition or when there is sufficient ambient light in the room. At night, or when the room is dark, the lighting system will turn on the light(s) to provide light for any persons present allowing a safer egress out of the building. The emergency lighting system is a device that can be installed in a light bulb socket or built in to a wall plate light switch. Also, the emergency lighting system could be built in to lighting fixtures by a manufacturer.
