Abstract

See full text

A voice-activated light system that includes a microphone for receiving one or more voice commands (which may be referred to as a “voice microphone”), one or more light sources (such as LEDs) coupled to a controller and a light driver. The light driver is for driving the light sources and the controller is for detecting a voice command in order to control the mode of operation of the one or more light sources. The controller can have multiple control commands each for selecting a different mode of operation of the light source(s). The modes can be controlled by a common voice input term followed by a second voice command corresponding to a mode of operation of the light source. The system may include a second microphone which may be referred to herein as a “music microphone”. The commands can include “light show,” “slow pulse,” “steady on,” “blinking,” or “off”.
