Pressure activated illumination apparatuses

摘要

A pressure activated illumination apparatus is provided. In some embodiments, a pressure activated illumination apparatus may comprise a pressure mat which includes a pressure switch configured to detect weight placed on the pressure mat; an illumination housing which comprises a light emitting element and is movable relative to the pressure mat; and a user control input configured to modulate the illumination of the light emitting element. The pressure mat may be in electrical communication with the illumination housing, and a light emitting element of the illumination housing may be configured to illuminate upon receiving an electrical communication from the pressure mat.
