Abstract
An apparatus and a method are provided for a modular lighting system. In one embodiment, the modular lighting system comprises a compact and lightweight outer enclosure that features a plurality of lighting elements. It is envisioned that a subsection of the lighting elements is static, in that it may not be removed from the outer enclosure. The plurality of lighting elements are configured so that they may be detached from the outer enclosure and placed at locations based on the user's discretion so as to substantially reduce shadows and illuminate key areas. The modular lighting system may be operated wirelessly. In at least one embodiment, the detachable lighting elements include independent power sources.
Claims11
A modular lighting system, comprising:
- at least two detachable lighting elements;
- an enclosure configured to retain the at least two detachable lighting elements;
- a detachable power cable that is capable of being communicatively coupled to a power source;
- and
- wherein each of the at least two detachable lighting elements comprise:
- a lighting source;
- a base area comprising a magnetic retainer configured to attach with a metal surface of a work area;
- and an independent power source;
- and
- wherein each of the at least two detachable lighting elements are adapted to swivel, about a swivel axis parallel to the metal surface of the work area and near the base area, substantially a full range from zero to at least ninety degrees within a plane perpendicular to the metal surface of the work area when the base area is attached to the metal surface of the work area, thereby enabling control of degree of illumination of work areas;
- and
- wherein the swivel axis of each of the at least two detachable lighting elements is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the enclosure when the at least two detachable lighting elements are retained in the enclosure.
