ELECTRONIC LUMINOUS DEVICE
First Claim
1. An electronic luminous ornamental device comprising the combination of an array of light-emission diodes for illuminating selected portions of at least one decorative member, a power source for energizing said light-emission diodes, means for generating a plurality of electrical control signals representing a desired order for energizing different portions of said array of light-emission diodes, a plurality of switching means for connecting different ones of said light-emission diodes to said power source in response to different ones of said electrical control signals whereby said different portions of said array are energized in accordance with the desired order represented by said control signals.
