Abstract:
Tents and canopies are ubiquitous for outdoor recreation and gatherings. Tents and canopies are poorly lit, especially during night time. Camping lights such as lanterns are ineffective for lighting the entire space of a tent or canopy. To address these issues, a lighting apparatus can improve the quality of lighting inside a tent or a canopy by lighting a tent using a plurality of flexible strips having lighting elements thereon and providing a housing enclosing a lighting controller circuit for controlling the lighting elements. The flexible strips are electrically coupled to the lighting controller and extends away from the lighting controller. The housing can be hung inside, near the top center point of the tent or canopy to illuminate not only the area inside the tent or canopy, but also the tent or canopy itself. The lighting apparatus has a unique physical design suited for tents, canopies, and automobiles.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 11 , wherein:\n the light mode comprises comprising a sequence of lighting states encoded in a storage of the lighting apparatus; and generating signals by the lighting controller comprises generating signals according to the sequence of lighting states encoded in the storage of the lighting apparatus to execute the sequence using the lighting elements on the flexible strips.
