1. A fabric with embedded dispensing channels that have luminous capability, comprising:
a fabric sheet; and
at least one flexible conduit having said luminous capability integrated into the fabric sheet, the at least one flexible conduit having said luminous capability further having an inlet and a plurality of dispensing holes formed through at least one wall thereof, the at least one flexible conduit having said luminous capability being hollow and defining an interior channel,
wherein said at least one flexible conduit is formed of an elastic material,
wherein phosphorescent nanoparticles are embedded in the elastic material forming the flexible conduit such that the phosphorescent nanoparticles embedded in the elastic material forming the flexible conduit provide said luminous capability, and
wherein said luminous capability is luminous with respect to visible light.
