Abstract
A cone light is a light emitting structure that is placed on a traffic cone to improve the visibility of the traffic cone. The light cone includes a plurality of lights that are mounted to an outer surface of the cone light and a micro-controller that controls the illumination of the lights. The cone right also has a memory storing a plurality of flash patterns and the micro-controller illuminates the lights in the flash pattern selected by the user. Multiple cone lights can be used together with a master cone light transmitting a flash pattern signal to one or more slave cone light so that each of the cone lights is illuminated in a matching or coordinated pattern.
