Abstract: A relatively small, illuminated, wearable-safety device or item that may also serve as an item of jewelry or ornamental apparel attachment item of jewelry or ornamental apparel attachment which incorporates a series of LED's packages, with each LED package being made of three individual LED's, one of blue, one of green, and one of red, whereby a continuous range of colors may be emitted by selected energizing of each individual LED of an LED package. The LED packages are capable of being flashed in various modes of operation, such as sequential, random, continuous, and the like. The LED packages are also controlled where the colors emitted by each LED package may also have various modes of operation, such as sequential, random, continuous, and the like, where the color emitted by each LED package may be altered according to a fixed or random pattern, all of which are controlled by one microprocessor.

Abstract: An optical display device for use with wearing apparel or in combination with novelty gifts for illumination thereof. The optical display device based upon a control circuit capable of energizing incandescent lamps attached to a conductive pathway. The control circuit having an IC based timing circuit with manual switches for lamp lighting mode sequence as well as sequencing speed. An alternative embodiment is disclosed using an EPROM IC chip wherein all sequencing and functional timing is performed by an instructional software program made operational upon manual switch toggling. The conductive pathway provides electrical coupling to the lamps with one embodiment having a pathway formed from flexible circuit boards. Use of flexible circuit boards permits simplistic color changing by use of peel-off covers placed over the lamps as well as protection from moisture, impact, or dislodgement of the lamps. The coupling of circuit boards across movable joints is by flexible wire or conductor tape.

Abstract: An optical display device capable of securing to active limbs of a body in motion whereby body movement enhances optical display thereby illumiunating the wearer for ornamental or safety purposes. The device consists of a plurality of incandescent lamps, or the like, which are coupled to four flexible strip circuit boards. Each circuit board has a translucent shield placed on, or formed over, the length of the circuit board to cover the lamps for protection from moisture, impact, and provide alternative colored illumination. Placement of the device is on each upper arm of the user with a second circuit board positioned on each portion of a person's lower arm, all electrically components are coupled together by flexible wire or conductor tape. A control circuit provides a means for energization of the lamps by use of an integrated circuit.
