  • Patent number: 9139131
    Abstract: An illuminative device (100) includes a control circuit (101), an acceleration detector (102) operable with the control circuit, and a plurality of light sources (103) operable with the control circuit. The control circuit is to receive an input (108) from the acceleration detector indicating deceleration (601) exceeds a predetermined threshold (662). Upon receipt of the input, the control circuit is to deliver a time-varying control signal to continuously illuminate the plurality of light sources with an illumination level varying between a first non-zero illumination level (664) and a second non-zero illumination level (665) in accordance with a frequency of the time-varying control signal.

  • Patent number: 4788675
    Abstract: A music delivery arrangement permitting a subscriber to select from among a plurality of available music selections, particular selections that he wishes to hear at any time. The plurality of music selections are "played" at a central "jukebox" facility. They are frequency multiplexed onto one or more communication channels that are typically used to carry video information, such as cable television channel. The video channel information is distributed to individual subscribers either via unused channels of a cable television system, by direct broadcast at commercial television frequencies, by direct satellite transmission to a subscriber, or by some other means. The subscriber uses a converter box to demultiplex and thereby select a desired musical selection for demodulation. Demodulation can take place in the subscriber's FM broadcast receiver or in some other apparatus.
