Abstract

See full text

A shoe having an outsole and an upper associated with the outsole and configured to cover a user's foot. The outsole and the upper together provide an exterior surface. A plurality of illuminating devices are located along an exterior surface of the shoe where they are exposed. The plurality of illuminating devices are placed along the exterior of the shoe to generally form an arrangement of illuminating devices around the exterior of the shoe. A source of electrical energy is connected to the light source for illuminating the illuminating devices upon detection of motion of the shoe. The source is configured to light the illuminating devices according to a predetermined sequence wherein the arrangement provides the illusion of a point of light moving around the shoe, with simultaneous illumination of adjacent illuminating devices, so that only two illuminating devices on a side of the shoe are simultaneously lit.
