ABSTRACT:
A luminescent automobile trim apparatus includes structure for positioning on a portion of an automobile to render the portion visible at night an electroluminescent strip formed of several layers of material joined together substantially face to face, including a layer of conductive film, under a first layer of phosphor of a certain first color, under a first layer of electrode material, for radiating light of a certain color. The apparatus preferably additionally includes a structure for altering electrical frequency and voltage applied to the first layer of electrode material for changing the color of the radiated light. The structure for altering preferably includes a musical sound system; where the frequency and voltage are controlled by electrical representations of music within the sound system, such that color changes are synchronized with changes in the electrical representations. The apparatus alternatively additionally includes a second layer of phosphor of a certain second color and an adjacent second layer of electrode material, and structure for selectively directing electric current to one of these layers of electrode material, for activating the particular layer of phosphor material to radiate light of a color corresponding to the phosphor color.
