METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ILLUMINATING HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTS
First Claim
1. A method of providing light in conjunction with a scent-producing product and/or a scent-producing facility that includes the scent-producing product, the method comprising:
- A) providing at least one light system, comprising at least one light source controllable by a processor for generating radiation of one or more colors and/or one or more brightness levels;
B) disposing the at least one light system in proximity to the scent-producing facility so as to generate the radiation in proximity to the scent-producing facility and/or the scent-producing product; and
C) generating at least one selected color of the radiation in response to a signal from the processor.

Abstract
Methods and systems for generating one or more scents in conjunction with light. Light of various colors, including dynamic lighting effects, may be generated such that at least one characteristic of the light may be based at least in part on one or more characteristics of a scent or scents, and/or proximate environmental conditions. In one example, one or more LED-based light sources are employed together with a scent-producing facility in a conventional household product (e.g., an integrated air-freshener/LED night light, an LED-simulated candle with scent, etc.).
