System for the ritual and gestural lighting of electrical or electronic light sources

System comprising at least two optical units (100) for the ritual-gestural control of the sending/receiving of commands between devices, said commands being turning on, turning off and the like, said devices being provided with said optical units (100), each optical unit (100) comprising:

• at least one upper part (100.b), the latter comprising:
• at least one cover (104) provided with an opening, a coating (102) made of any material adapted to limit optical radiation, said material being metal, wood, plastic, frosted glass, wax or the like, an optical guide (101) the latter being made of vitreous or plastic material and the like;
• at least one lower part (100.a) containing the electric, electronic and electromechanical components and circuitry, said components and circuitry comprising:
• at least one photo-emitter device (105), at least one photo-detector device (107) optimized for the detection of the emission spectrum of the photo-emitter (105), at least one processing and control unit (110) provided with at least one connection and control section (110.4) for a power supply source and with at least one acquisition, processing and control unit (110.1) with capacity for managing I/O, storing digital data in volatile and non-volatile form, managing timing, driving the photo-emitter device (105), acquiring the state of the photo-detector device (107), controlling a management and control circuitry (110.2).
