Abstract

A communicative lighting system in some embodiments comprises a plurality of network connected light sources including display screens. Each light source in some embodiments possess a unique identifier permitting the light sources to be associated with one another. An input received by one light source in some embodiments alter the light output and display screen of that light source as well as the associated light sources. The light output of a light source in some embodiments is capable of being altered by changing color, brightening or dimming, blinking, adjusting which of a plurality of light emitting diodes are activated, or otherwise modifying the type or amount of light output. The display screen in some embodiments is capable of being altered to display a different image or video.

Dependent claims

A communicative lighting system, the system comprising:

a first light source, the first light source including at least one input mechanism, at least one light output mechanism, at least one screen configured to display one or more identifying images, and a permanently assigned first identifier;
a second light source, the second light source including at least one input mechanism, at least one light output mechanism, at least one screen configured to display one or more identifying images, and a permanently assigned second identifier;
and
a server connected to at least one network accessible to both the first light source and the second light source, the server receiving messages from at least the first light source and the second light source to associate the first light source and the second light source with one another, such that when an input is made using the at least one input mechanism at the first light source the operation of the at least one light output mechanism and at least one screen of the second light source alters and such that when an input is made using the at least one input mechanism at the second light source the operation of the at least one light output mechanism and at least one screen of the first light source alters.
