Abstract

The extendible multifunction light comprises of several electronic functions which communicates with the use of speaker and microphone with each other based on the specific commands that maybe prompted by the user or by programming such response with the use of the control panel. Each of the functions process data which can be stored in the memory of the product which can be transferred into the user'"'"'s personal computer. A user may transfer information from his or her computer to download into the product. The product may transform itself from a flare to a flashlight; to be extended for use for walking, hiking and skiing. The product has a camera for recording video and audio information, a GPS system for tracking the user, an MP3 player for downloading music, motion detector, LCD navigator screen, breath analyzer and fingerprint scanner.
