US Patent:

20130106289, May 2, 2013

Filed:

Oct 28, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/284724

Inventors:

Brad BENESKI - Austin TX, US
Paul MORGENSTERN - Austin TX, US

International Classification:

H05B 37/02

US Classification:

315121, 315210

Abstract:

A novel safety harness is disclosed. The safety harness has straps for securing upon a subject. Arranged around the straps are several light emitting diodes (LEDs). The LEDs are driven by pulses of current that exceed the power rating of the LED, but the current is driven for a very short period of time, such that the LEDs are not destroyed. These LEDs blink when turned on and emit substantially more light than is typically found in LEDs, such that the subject is visible from a distance of up to two thousand feet. Multiple safety harnesses may be strapped together, allowing the safety device to be used in a variety of settings, both for human and non-human subjects.
