The Evil Eye is a Halloween mask with LED's, which light up the eyes when
voice activated.
The Evil Eye Halloween mask (Fig 1(1)) has several LED's (Fig 1(2)), that
light up the eye sockets, or fake
eyeballs if they are included in the mask design, when voice activated. An
electronic module (Fig 1(3)) that
includes a microphone for sensing the voice signal of the mask wearer produces
this light up effect. This
signal is then amplified and used to drive said LED's. The electronic module
is either housed in a
preformed pocket on the inside of the mask, or, glued directly to the inside
of the mask. The electronic
module is thin enough so as to be mounted on the inside of the mask and can be
turned on and off by means
of a single switch. The main function of the eye socket/ball sighting up is to
provide the mask with a
spooky effect. A secondary advantage of this effect is that the wearer of the
mask becomes substantially
more visible at night.
