Inventors:

Mark Coast - San Diego CA, US

International Classification:

F21V 7/00

US Classification:

362517000

Abstract:

A multiple spectrum marker and light assembly for vehicles that is adapted to be mounted to the vehicle and configured to emit a visible light signal and a non-visible light signal. The visible light signal is generated from the vehicle's standard visible light bulbs. The non-visible light signal can be generated from an infrared, near-infrared light, an ultraviolet light or a radio signal and used when lights out driving conditions are desired or necessary. The non-visible light signal can also transmit a coded data signal that comprises information about the vehicle and its driver. In the preferred embodiment, both the front and rear vehicle lighting systems incorporate the multiple spectrum assembly of the present invention and the driver can selectively, except for the coded data signal, utilize the visible light source or the non-visible light source. The coded data signal can be used to assist law enforcement personnel.
