Emergency egress lighting system

An emergency egress lighting system for a vehicle having multiple egress portals (88,90), including first sensors (72,74,78) and second sensors (68,70) that sense information as to vehicle orientation in pitch and roll. A plurality of indicators (84,86) is changeable between a positive indication an...

Zusammenfassung:An emergency egress lighting system for a vehicle having multiple egress portals (88,90), including first sensors (72,74,78) and second sensors (68,70) that sense information as to vehicle orientation in pitch and roll. A plurality of indicators (84,86) is changeable between a positive indication and a negative indication locatable inside the vehicle near one of the multiple egress portals (88,90). The plurality of indicators (84,86) display a positive indication and a negative indication at each of the multiple egress portals (88,90) based on the vehicle orientation in pitch and roll such that a first portion of the plurality of indicators (84,86) displays the positive indication proximate least one first selected egress portal (88) that is less or least likely to be blocked to prevent egress while a second portion of the of the plurality of indicators (84,86) display the negative indication proximate at least one second selected egress portals (90) that is more or most likely to be blocked to prevent egress.
