Abstract
An illumination poi is provided, comprising light emitters and light waveguides optically coupled to the light emitters. In some embodiments, the light waveguides are optical fibers. A microchip light controller, associated with the light emitters, varies the light entering the optical fibers, and facilitates spectacular light pattern upon rotation of the illumination poi in the dark.
Claims24
A poi weight including:
- i) a casing;
- ii) one or more light emitters mounted inside said casing;
- iii) one or more light waveguides, each of said light waveguides having a proximal end optically coupled to at least one of said light emitters and a distal end disposed outside that casing, said distal end being configured to scatter light propagating in the light waveguide;
- and
- iv) one or more light controllers associated to said one or more light emitters and configured to vary at least one parameter of the light entering into said one or more light waveguides.

A method for enabling a person to perform illumination poi moves, the method comprising the steps of:
- a) providing the person with an illumination poi, said illumination poi comprising:
- i) a suspension element;
- ii) a weight connected to said suspension element, the weight including
- A) a casing;
- B) one or more light emitters mounted inside casing;
- C) one or more light waveguides, each light waveguide having a proximal end optically coupled to at least one light emitter and a distal end disposed outside the casing and scattering light propagating in the light waveguide;
- and
- D) one or more light controllers varying automatically at least one parameter of the light entering into one or more light waveguides.
- and
- b) allowing the person to perform illumination poi moves.
