Description

Automatic control system of LED lighting and the control method for using imagery information supplied from imagery information supply device

The present invention relates to an LED lighting control system using image information and a control method thereof, and in particular, to automatically control the LED lamp by using image information provided from an image providing apparatus (for example, TV, DVD, etc.). The present invention relates to an LED lighting control system using the video information and a control method thereof.

In general, LED lighting is made of a bundle of one or more LED devices that emit red, green, and blue light when electricity is supplied.

Here, the light emission principle of the LED element was discovered when voltage was applied to the semiconductor in 1907 and light was observed. That is, the electron (e) of the semiconductor is due to the deviation of the energy according to the external voltage, at this time the light is emitted when the high energy to low energy changes. Therefore, if the energy difference of the electron is large, blue light, small red light, and green light medium.

In 1962, General Electronics (GE) in the United States first commercialized red LEDs, and in 1993, Dr. Nakamura Susie of Nichia, Japan, developed the blue LEDs. In 1997, Nichia developed a white LED that emits white light using a yellow phosphor and a blue LED.

These LED devices are capable of producing a variety of full-color light while emitting white, red, green, and blue, the basic elements of color. In particular, the development of white LEDs has paved the way for LED lighting to spread to lamps that can replace general lighting in consumer electronics displays.

On the other hand, many lighting products using LED lighting mainly used red LED elements. It was mainly used for billboards, traffic lights, and landscape lighting, and the most common application was mobile phones.

Red, green, blue, and white LEDs were used as signal lamps in early mobile phones, and they were widely used as backlight units (BLUs) that illuminate the light behind the LCD screen of mobile phones.

In addition, LED lamps have been applied to vehicle direction indicators and auxiliary lights, and headlamps are expected to be applied in the future.

LED devices have also been recently applied as BLUs for general display home appliances such as notebook monitors and LCD TVs. It is also commercialized as a direct lighting product that replaces ordinary fluorescent lamps, halogen lamps and incandescent bulbs.

LED lamps that can be directly plugged into general household sockets are appearing one after another in Korea, and products are also appearing in offices, restaurants, department store showcases, and street lamps. One of the areas with high growth potential for homes is the general lighting replacement market.

These LED lights are energy-saving products because they require only one fifth the power of a typical incandescent bulb and one third the level of a fluorescent lamp.

Its lifetime is about 50,000 hours, 10 times longer than ordinary incandescent or fluorescent lamps.

The brightness is up to the level similar to fluorescent lamps, and it is eco-friendly because no harmful substances such as mercury are used like fluorescent lamps.

However, it is still pointed out that the price is higher than general lighting products.

Current LED lamps are six times more expensive than ordinary fluorescent lamps or halogen lamps, and are expensive because they combine several LED elements to form a single lamp. High-power LEDs can produce enough brightness with one LED element in the future. As the product is expected to emerge, the price is also expected to decrease gradually.

In addition, LED lighting is attracting attention due to the advantages such as long life, high efficiency and high brightness even at a price higher than general lighting due to the trend of landscape lighting.

As U-city construction expands in the future, there will be more cases of applying LED lighting to indoors, and it will be an era in which the color of lighting can be changed freely by users.
