Abstract:

Electroluminescent lights or devices that are used as visual pavement markers on highways, streets, roads, parking lots, etc. The electroluminescent lights or devices can be illuminated regularly to provide visible recognition of the edges of a highway, street, road, etc. or lane or parking space markers, turn lane indicators or the like. Alternatively, the electroluminescent lights or devices can be used as a backup system to provide illuminated, visual markings along dark pavement areas which primary systems such as street lights fail. The electroluminescent lights or devices can be in the form of thin flexible strips that can be incorporated into or on the surface of various pavement materials.
