  • Publication number: 20100253499
    Abstract: A method of controlling a plurality of lights on a vehicle lighting system provides a first and second light having a first and second processor. Each is in operative communication with a bus establishing an operative communication between the first and second processor. A master processor is arbitrated among the first and second processors. Thereafter the master processor signals the first and second processors to execute a preconfigured flash pattern.

  • Publication number: 20100244748
    Abstract: A light beacon includes a base, a plurality of towers supported on the base, a first set of LEDs having a first color mounted on each of said towers and a second set of LEDs having a second color also mounted on each of said towers. A microprocessor in operative communication with each of the first and second LEDs is configured to illuminate the first set of LEDs through a defined channel either simultaneously or sequentially, at a user's option through a user interface. The processor is further configured to illuminate the second set of LEDs through a defined channel either simultaneously or sequentially at a user's option. A lens mounted on the housing directs light from the LEDs in a preconfigured distribution.

  • Patent number: 7783270
    Abstract: A flexible amplification system for wireless data networks is disclosed. The amplification system may be powered from multiple sources including power over coaxial cable, obviating the need for independent data and power cables. The amplification system may be digitally controlled to optimize bi-directional transmit and receive capabilities and to produce a constant output.

  • Patent number: 7230811
    Abstract: A modular feed-though adapter that allows an electrical connection to a power line network adapter without “using up” an electrical outlet is described. In one embodiment, the modular feed-through adapter also provides noise filtering to protect electrical equipment plugged into the feed-through outlet. The noise filtering also protects the power line network data signals from noise generated by the devices plugged into the feed-through adapter. In one embodiment, the network connections provided by the feed-through adapter are low voltage connections, thus allowing the network connections from the feed-through adapter to be safely plugged directly into low-voltage equipment such as computer network cards and the like. In one embodiment, the modular adapter includes a ball to couple network data signals to the power line.
