Abstract
A wearable lighting system includes a first wireless communications device such as a transmitter disposed within a vehicle, a light-emitting device worn by a user, and a second wireless communications device such as a sensor. The sensor is worn by the user and is in wireless communication with the transmitter. The sensor is adapted to activate the light-emitting device when the sensor is greater than a threshold distance from the transmitter and adapted to deactivate the light-emitting device when the sensor is a less than or equal to the threshold distance from the transmitter, thereby causing the light-emitting device to automatically activate upon the user exiting the vehicle and automatically deactivate when the user returns to the vehicle.
