Interactive Portable Lighting System
An interactive lighting system includes a group of one or more portable lamps designed to respond to user's spatial manipulation of a lamp to control the system. The lamps can be wirelessly linked to operate in unison, and each lamp could also include an ambient light sensor, which helps the system to optimize illumination characteristics and profile.

- 1. A lighting system comprising:
at least one portable lamp comprising: a light source comprising at least one light emitting diode for providing illumination; a control circuit for controlling illumination of said light source; an ambient light sensor coupled to said control circuit; a housing adapted to permit illumination from said light source to pass through said housing to an exterior space, said housing adapted for being held in a user's hand while said light source is illuminating a space exterior to said housing; and a rechargeable battery for providing power to said controller and said light source; wherein said control circuit controls a characteristic of the illumination emitted by said at least one light emitting diode based on a signal from said ambient light sensor.
- 9. A lighting system comprising:
at least one portable lamp comprising: a light source comprising at least one light emitting diode for providing illumination; a control circuit for controlling illumination of said light source; a housing adapted to permit illumination from said light source to pass through it to an exterior space, said housing adapted for being held in a user's hand while said light source is illuminating a space exterior to said housing; a spatial sensor coupled to said control circuit, said spatial sensor sensing changes in spatial orientation of said at least one portable lamp based on a user's manipulation of said housing; and a power source for providing power to said spatial sensor, said controller, and said light source; wherein said control circuit controls operation of said at least one portable lamp based on a signal from said spatial sensor.
- 19. A method of operating a lighting system comprising at least one portable lamp, said method comprising:
a) detecting a change in spatial orientation of said at least one portable lamp due to a user manipulating said portable lamp in space; b) transmitting a signal to a controller located inside a housing of said at least one portable lamp; and c) using said controller to control operation of said at least one portable lamp based on said signal from said spatial sensor.
- 20. A method of operating a sighting system comprising at least one portable lamp, said method comprising:
a) using an ambient light sensor located inside a housing of said at least one portable lamp to detect an amount ambient light; b) transmitting a signal from said ambient light sensor to a controller located inside a housing of said at least one portable lamp; and c) using a controller to control both brightness and tone of said at least one portable lamp based on a signal from said ambient light sensor.
