Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a lighting device configured to mimic the appearance of a flame. In one embodiment, the lighting device includes a power subsystem configured to receive an alternating current input and to generate a direct current output. The lighting device also includes a reflector to reflect light generated by a lighting subsystem. A movement subsystem may move the reflector to mimic the appearance of a flame. A communication subsystem may receive at least one parameter associated with at least one of the lighting subsystem and the movement subsystem. A control subsystem may implement the at least one parameter.

Abstract: A multi-directional glider chair allowing for rotation of a seat in relation to a path of gliding action. In some embodiments, the multi-directional glider comprises a glider base including a glider mechanism supporting a gliding top, the glider mechanism providing for generally linear motion of the gliding top along at least a segment of a first axis, and a seat including at least a bottom element, the bottom element being rotatably coupled to the gliding top of the glider base by a rotatable coupler providing for rotation of the seat about a second axis, wherein an orientation of the seat in relation to the first axis may be selectively modified by rotation of the seat about the second axis. Thus, the multi-directional glider as described in this embodiment enables a user to modify an orientation of the seat in relation to a back-and-forth glide path allowed by the glider mechanism.
