Abstract: A method and apparatus is described whereby invisible camera illuminators may be readily identified and located. In one embodiment the method of detecting the presence of an imaging system producing an invisible illuminator includes introducing a first optical filter capable of blocking energy from an LED infrared illuminator band source and allow energy from broadband visible light source to pass with minimal attenuation; and introducing a second optical filter that permits most of the energy from said infrared illuminator to pass and blocks a substantial portion of said broadband visible light; wherein said filtered LED infrared illuminator and said broadband visible light blink on and off.

Abstract: A chemiluminescent, multiple-part marking system comprising at least one first reactant and at least one second reactant, wherein the at least one first reactant is chosen from a viscous oxalate composition, and wherein the at least one second reactant is chosen from a liquid activator. A chemiluminescent, multiple-part marking system comprising at least one first reactant and at least one second reactant, wherein the at least one first reactant is chosen from a liquid oxalate composition, and wherein the at least one second reactant is chosen from a viscous activator composition.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are multiple-part electrochemical thermal signaling or marking systems, comprising at least one first part comprising at least one super-corroding alloy and at least one absorbent material, and at least one second part. The at least one first part and the at least second part must be kept separate until use, at which time they are combined and heat generation commences. Further disclosed herein are containment devices comprising such thermal signaling or marking systems.

Abstract: A projectile having light emitting structure and a rechargeable power source is launched by projectile launching apparatus such as a gun. The projectile launching apparatus charges the rechargeable power source and when the projectile is propelled a visual display is produced by the lighted propelled projectile.

Abstract: The thixotropic composition of the instant invention may be cured to a more or less rigid form without the use of a mold. The shaped thixotropic composition includes one of the two components which when combined result in chemiluminescent light. The cured solid is useful in a variety of environments and will emit chemiluminescent light upon addition of a second chemiluminescent component.

Abstract: A signaling system for an emergency light station containing chemiluminescent light sticks. The light station includes a cover that generates mechanical energy upon opening that is then transformed into electrical power. The electrical power is then utilized to transmit a radio frequency signal to a remote location is alert an observer to the fact that the light station has been opened. The alert provides an immediate indication that an emergency is in progress or that the safety emergency light station is being vandalized.

Abstract: A chemiluminescent lightstick evacuation station consisting of a wall mountable fixture that stores a plurality of lightsticks that are accessed by opening the fixture cover. The fixture cover is opened by pivoting from a closed position to an open position wherein a lightstick restraint causes the activation of one lightstick so as to illuminate the remaining lightsticks to facilitate their removal during an emergency.

Abstract: A small light source for internally illuminating live flowers and other products is formed in the shape of a pin with a battery case operatively connected to the light source. A sharp penetrating tip surrounds the light source and is fixed to a rigid tube for manipulating the device to insert the light source within the structure of the plant. The device is of such a size that it can be supported by a plant without deformation of the plant.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for decorating an edible food without substantially deforming the edible food. A container delivers a liquid decorating substance to an elongated, soft, flexible nib. When placed in contact with a surface of the edible food and moved relative to the edible food, the nib readily laterally flexes when pressure is exerted on the surface by the nib so that the nib does not substantially deform the edible food even when the edible food is soft.

Abstract: A children's water toy that has a base unit for directing flow of a fluid in a substantially vertical direction and a spraying unit configured to receive fluid from the base member and rebound the fluid to direct it out of the bottom of the spraying unit so that the spraying unit is maintained aloft by the fluid pressure.

Abstract: A costume safety mask housing chemiluminescent reagents. Upon activation, the reagents illuminate the mask or features thereon for purposes of novelty illumination and safety of the wearer.
