The inventive door knob that lightens on your approach

I’ve been in a situation a hundred times and have never found an answer to it. Sneaking into my bedroom after a late night party is a cumbersome exercise without turning the lamp on. We’ll maybe the answer now lies in this "unbelievable" door knob that senses a person approaching and self-illuminates. Dubbed the illumi-knob, it lightens up using a couple of embedded low-level LED rings on sensing a movement from as far as 10 feet. Forget me, even the elderly will find this knob a bliss as they could easily sight the knob despite their deteriorated vision quality. The illumi-knob should be available sometime next year with $20 tagging. I would pay five times for it, since it has the prowess to save me a fall on the carpet.
