Description

  The present invention relates to a lighting device capable of controlling the light color of a light source, and more particularly to a lighting device capable of supporting exercise when a user exercises.

  Conventionally, it is known that a light color emitted from a light source such as an LED affects a human body. For example, when there are many red light components, the autonomic nerve is stimulated, the heart rate increases, and the instantaneous power increases. Also, when there are many blue light components, the parasympathetic nerve is stimulated, the heart rate is decreased, and the endurance is increased.

  In addition, as a lighting fixture using the light color of the light source, for example, when a preset alarm time comes, an alarm sounds, and when the user wakes up and operates the alarm button, the red LED is caused to emit light, There has been disclosed a lighting apparatus that can stimulate sympathetic nerves after a user's awakening to quickly get sleepy (see Patent Document 1).

On the other hand, as a response to the metabolic syndrome, exercise equipment that can moderate exercise by eliminating lack of exercise is widespread, and various exercise equipment that can be exercised easily even in general households have been commercialized. .

  However, many of the conventional exercise equipment do not have a complicated exercise control function for adjusting the amount of exercise of the user, and there is a risk of injury or sudden increase in heart rate when exercise is started suddenly. May cause dizziness, which may cause failure. In addition, when the exercise is suddenly stopped at the end of the exercise, the heart rate may fluctuate abruptly and cause a disorder.

  Moreover, although the lighting fixture of patent document 1 uses the light color of a light source when a user wakes up, when a user uses an exercise device, there is no point about using the light color of a light source. Not disclosed.

  This invention is made | formed in view of such a situation, and it aims at providing the illuminating device which can support exercise | movement by controlling the light color of a light source.

  An illumination device according to the present invention is used when a user exercises and includes a control unit that controls a light color of a light source. The control unit controls a light color of the light source to control a user's light color. It is characterized by being able to adjust the exercise load.

  The illumination device according to the present invention is characterized in that the control unit controls the light color of the light source in accordance with an exercise mode of a user's exercise.

  The illumination device according to the present invention includes an exercise mode acquisition unit that acquires an exercise mode of a user.

  The illumination device according to the present invention is characterized in that the control unit controls the light color of the light source according to the time during which the user exercises.

  The lighting device according to the present invention includes a time width acquisition unit that acquires a time width related to a time during which the user exercises, and a first exercise time and a first exercise time that follows the time width acquired by the time width acquisition unit. And specifying means for specifying two exercise times, wherein the controller raises the color temperature of the light source during the first exercise time or brings the color of the light source closer to a cold color, During the exercise time, the color temperature of the light source is lowered or the color of the light source is made to approach a warm color.

  In the lighting device according to the present invention, the control unit gradually decreases the color temperature of the light source or gradually changes the color of the light source to a warm color as the time elapses during the first exercise time. It is configured to be close to each other.

  In the illumination device according to the present invention, the specifying unit is configured to specify a third exercise time following the second exercise time, and the control unit is configured to change the color of the light source during the third exercise time. It is characterized in that the temperature is increased or the color of the light source is brought close to a cold color.

  In the lighting device according to the present invention, the control unit gradually increases the color temperature of the light source or gradually changes the color of the light source to a cold color according to the passage of time during the third exercise time. It is configured to be close to each other.

  The illumination device according to the present invention includes a storage unit that stores the color temperature of the light source and predetermined identification information in association with each other, and an identification information acquisition unit that acquires the identification information. During the exercise time, the light source is configured to have a color temperature corresponding to the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition means.

  In the present invention, the lighting device adjusts the exercise load of the user by controlling the light color of the light source. For example, when the user starts exercise, the light color of the light source is controlled so that the heart rate does not increase suddenly, thereby suppressing the user's exercise load. When the user gets used to exercise, the light color of the light source is controlled so as to increase the heart rate, thereby increasing the exercise load and enhancing the exercise effect. Thereby, exercise | movement can be assisted by controlling the light color of a light source.

  In this invention, an illuminating device controls the light color of a light source according to the exercise | movement mode of a user's exercise | movement. The exercise mode can be, for example, a warm-up exercise, a main exercise, a cool-down exercise, or the like. Thereby, the light color of a light source can be controlled according to a user's exercise mode, and the user's exercise | movement load can be adjusted according to an exercise mode.

  In this invention, an illuminating device is provided with the exercise mode acquisition means which acquires a user's exercise mode. For example, the user can set his / her favorite exercise mode with a remote device (such as a remote controller) at hand, and the lighting device can acquire the set exercise mode. Thereby, regardless of the user's exercise menu or exercise pattern, the user's desired exercise mode can be accurately acquired.

  In the present invention, the lighting device controls the light color of the light source according to the time during which the user moves. For example, when the user's exercise time is short, the light color of the light source is controlled so that the heart rate does not increase to suppress the exercise load on the user. Also, when the user exercises for a long time, the user gets used to the exercise, so the light color of the light source is controlled to increase the exercise rate by controlling the light color of the light source so as to increase the heart rate. Thereby, exercise | movement can be assisted by controlling the light color of a light source.

  In the present invention, the lighting device acquires a time width related to the time during which the user exercises, and specifies the first exercise time and the second exercise time following the first exercise time from the acquired time width. The time width related to the time during which the user exercises is, for example, the time during which the user uses the exercise equipment. The first exercise time is, for example, a warm-up time, and the second exercise time is a main exercise time for performing exercise in earnest. The lighting device increases the color temperature of the light source or brings the color of the light source closer to a cold color during the first exercise time (warm-up time). For example, the color of the light source can be a daylight color (a color with many blue wavelength components) that does not increase the heart rate, and the color temperature can be about 6500K to 7000K. In addition, the lighting device lowers the color temperature of the light source or brings the color of the light source closer to a warm color during the second exercise time (main exercise time). For example, the color of the light source is set to a light bulb color (a color having a lot of red wavelength components) that increases the heart rate so as to enhance the exercise effect, and the color temperature is set to about 2800K. As a result, even when using an exercise device that does not have a complicated exercise control function, it is possible to improve the exercise effect while preventing injury or dizziness, and to realize an environment for supporting exercise. it can. Further, during warm-up, it is possible to gradually get used to exercise without increasing the heart rate, and during the main exercise, the heart rate can be increased to enhance exercise effect and improve exercise efficiency.

  In the present invention, the lighting device gradually decreases the color temperature of the light source or changes the color of the light source to a warm color according to the passage of time during the first exercise time (warm-up time). Gradually approach. For example, at the start of warm-up, the color of the light source is a daylight color (a color with a lot of blue wavelength components), the color temperature is about 6500K to 7000K, and the color of the light source is gradually changed to the light bulb color ( Color with a lot of red wavelength components), the color temperature is brought close to about 2800K. As a result, the light color of the light source can be gradually changed during warm-up, and the user can be used to exercise without feeling uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

  Moreover, in this invention, an illuminating device specifies the 3rd exercise | movement time following a 2nd exercise | movement time. The third exercise time is, for example, a cool down time. The lighting device increases the color temperature of the light source or brings the color of the light source closer to a cold color during the third exercise time (cool-down time). For example, the color of the light source can be a daylight color (a color with many blue wavelength components), and the color temperature can be about 6500K to 7000K. As a result, at the time of cool-down, the heart rate can be lowered to prevent injuries such as injury, and the fatigue recovery effect can be enhanced.

  In the present invention, the lighting device gradually increases the color temperature of the light source or changes the color of the light source to a cold color according to the passage of time during the third exercise time (cool-down time). Gradually approach. For example, at the start of cool-down, the color of the light source is set to light bulb color (color with many red wavelength components), the color temperature is set to about 2800K, and the color of the light source is gradually changed to daylight (blue) as the end of the cool-down time is approached. Color with a lot of wavelength components), the color temperature is brought close to about 6500K to 7000K. Thereby, the light color of a light source can be changed gradually during cool-down, and an exercise | movement can be complete | finished without giving discomfort or discomfort to a user.

  In the present invention, the lighting device stores the color temperature of the light source and predetermined identification information in association with each other. The identification information is information for identifying a user, for example. When the illumination device acquires the identification information of the user who uses the exercise apparatus, the lighting device sets the color temperature corresponding to the identification information acquired in the second exercise time (main exercise time). Accordingly, even when the user feels the light color different, the light color of the light source can be set according to the user's preference, and the user can be prevented from feeling uncomfortable or uncomfortable. .

And a storage unit 19 for storing predetermined information.

  The receiving unit 12 includes an infrared light receiving element, a demodulation circuit, and the like, receives a signal transmitted from the remote controller 20, demodulates the received signal, and outputs the demodulated information to the control unit 11.

  The white LED module 14 is an LED packaged with a white LED element. The white driving unit 13 includes a driving circuit that drives a current supplied to the white LED module 14, and can control the amount of light of the white LED module 14 under the control of the control unit 11. The white LED module 14 may be an LED in which a blue LED element is encapsulated with a phosphor that emits yellow light when excited by blue light emitted from the blue LED element. .

  The RGB / LED module 18 is, for example, an LED packaged with three color LED elements, a red (R) LED element, a blue (B) LED element, and a green (G) LED element. The R drive unit 15, the G drive unit 16, and the B drive unit 17 include drive circuits that drive currents supplied to the red (R) LED element, the blue (B) LED element, and the green (G) LED element, respectively, and are controlled. Under the control of the unit 11, the light quantity of the red (R) LED element, the blue (B) LED element, and the green (G) LED element can be controlled. The white LED module 14 and the RGB / LED module 18 constitute a light source, and the light intensity and luminance of the light source are controlled by adjusting the light emission intensity (luminance) of each color LED element. A light color such as can be emitted.

  Instead of the above-described LED module, each may be composed of a plurality of LEDs of the same color. Moreover, it may replace with LED and other light sources, such as a fluorescent lamp, an incandescent lamp, a high pressure discharge lamp, or the light source which provided the color filter in such a light source may be sufficient.

  The control unit 11 is based on information transmitted from the remote controller 20 through the receiving unit 12 to turn on or off, information on exercise time, warm-up, main exercise or cool-down durations, users, and the like. To control.

  More specifically, when the control unit 11 has not acquired the respective durations of warm-up, main exercise, or cool-down when the user acquires time (exercise time) for exercising using an exercise device. The warm-up time as the first exercise time, the main exercise time as the second exercise time, and the cool-down time as the third exercise time are specified. In this case, only the warm-up time and the main exercise time may be specified. In addition, when each duration of warm-up, main exercise, or cool-down is acquired, each acquired duration is specified as each duration of warm-up, main exercise, or cool-down.

  The control part 11 controls the light color of a light source according to the elapsed time from the time of an exercise | movement start. For example, when the warm-up is required from the start of exercise (warm-up time), the light color does not increase the heart rate (for example, daylight), and during the main exercise time after the warm-up time has elapsed, In order to increase the effect, the light color (for example, light bulb color) that increases the heart rate is used to increase the exercise load, and during the cool down time after the main exercise time has elapsed, the heart rate is lowered again to reduce the exercise load The light source is controlled to have a light color (for example, daylight color). As a result, even when using exercise equipment that does not have a complicated exercise control function, it is possible to adjust the exercise load with the light color of the light source to enhance the exercise effect while preventing injuries such as injury or dizziness. An environment to support exercise can be realized.

  More specifically, the control unit 11 increases the color temperature of the light source during the warm-up time or brings the color of the light source closer to a cold color. For example, the color of the light source can be a daylight color (a color with many blue wavelength components), and the color temperature can be about 6500K to 7000K. Thereby, at the time of warm-up, it is possible to gradually get used to exercise without increasing the heart rate.

  Further, the control unit 11 can gradually lower the color temperature of the light source or gradually bring the color of the light source closer to a warm color as the warm-up time elapses. For example, at the start of warm-up, the color of the light source is a daylight color (a color with a lot of blue wavelength components), the color temperature is about 6500K to 7000K, and the color of the light source is gradually changed to the light bulb color ( Color with a lot of red wavelength components), the color temperature is brought close to about 2800K. As a result, the light color of the light source can be gradually changed during warm-up, and the user can be used to exercise without feeling uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

  The controller 11 lowers the color temperature of the light source during the main movement time or brings the color of the light source closer to a warm color. For example, the color of the light source is set to a light bulb color (a color with many red wavelength components), and the color temperature is set to about 2800K. Thereby, the heart rate can be increased, the exercise effect can be enhanced, and the exercise efficiency can be improved.

  The control unit 11 increases the color temperature of the light source during the cool-down time or brings the color of the light source closer to a cold color. For example, the color of the light source can be a daylight color (a color with many blue wavelength components), and the color temperature can be about 6500K to 7000K. As a result, at the time of cool-down, the heart rate can be lowered to prevent an injury such as an injury, and the fatigue recovery effect can be enhanced.

  Further, the control unit 11 can gradually increase the color temperature of the light source or gradually bring the color of the light source closer to a cold color as the cool-down time elapses. For example, at the start of cool-down, the color of the light source is set to light bulb color (color with many red wavelength components), the color temperature is set to about 2800K, and the color of the light source is gradually changed to daylight (blue) as the end of the cool-down time is approached. Color with a lot of wavelength components), the color temperature is brought close to about 6500K to 7000K. Thereby, the light color of a light source can be changed gradually during cool-down, and an exercise | movement can be complete | finished without giving discomfort or discomfort to a user.

  In addition, the control unit 11 can reduce the amount of light of the entire light source during the cool-down time, and can turn on the light source in a state in which the illuminance is lower than during warm-up and main exercise. Thereby, the room which is exercising becomes dark and the relaxation effect can be further enhanced.

  When the exercise time is not acquired from the remote controller 20, the control unit 11 performs control so that the light source is turned on at a predetermined light color (for example, white, an intermediate color between the daylight color and the light bulb color) and a predetermined color temperature. To do.

  The control unit 11 can be configured by a dedicated hardware circuit having the above-described functions, or includes a microcomputer, a RAM, and the like, and processing procedures for realizing the above-described functions are determined. The computer program code may be executed by a CPU.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the operation unit 22 and the display unit 23 of the remote controller 20. As shown in FIG. 2, as an operation button for receiving an operation on the lighting device 10, a lighting on / off button, an exercise time setting button for setting exercise time, a setting button for setting a light color (a triangular button) ), A user setting button for identifying the user, a transmission button for transmitting the set information to the lighting apparatus 10, and the like. In addition, you may make it set not only exercise time but duration time, such as warm-up time, with an exercise time setting button.

  The display unit 23 displays characters or symbols indicating whether or not the driving support operation is being performed (for example, during the driving support operation), an exercise mode (for example, warm-up), and the remaining exercise time (for example, 15 minutes). ) Etc. are displayed. The operation unit 22 and the display unit 23 are examples, and are not limited to these.

  Next, operation | movement of the illuminating device 10 is demonstrated. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the control unit 11. The control part 11 determines the presence or absence of lighting operation (S11), and when there is no lighting operation (it is NO at S11), it continues the process of step S11. When the lighting operation is performed (YES in S11), the control unit 11 determines whether or not the exercise time is acquired (received) from the remote controller 20 (S12).

  When the exercise time has not been acquired (NO in S12), the control unit 11 determines that the exercise support operation is not performed, and turns on or maintains the light source with a predetermined color temperature (predetermined light color) and illuminance ( S13).

  When the exercise time is acquired (YES in S12), the control unit 11 determines that it is an exercise support operation, and specifies each time of warm-up, main exercise, and cool-down (S14). For example, if the exercise time is 25 minutes, each time may be assigned within the exercise time such as 5 minutes for the warm-up time, 15 minutes for the main exercise time, and 5 minutes for the cool-down time. If it is 25 minutes, the warm-up time may be 5 minutes, the main exercise time may be 20 minutes, and the cool-down time may be 5 minutes. Further, it is not necessary to provide a cool down time. Further, when the user sets each time of warm-up, main exercise or cool-down with the remote controller 20, the set time may be used.

  The controller 11 turns on or maintains the light source at the color temperature (light color) at the time of warm-up (S15), and determines whether the warm-up time has elapsed (S16). When the warm-up time has not elapsed (NO in S16), the control unit 11 continues the process of step S16.

  When the warm-up time has elapsed (YES in S16), the control unit 11 maintains the lighting of the light source at the color temperature (light color) during the main exercise (S17), and determines whether the main exercise time has elapsed. (S18). When the main exercise time has not elapsed (NO in S18), the control unit 11 continues the process of step S18.

  When the main exercise time has elapsed (YES in S18), the control unit 11 keeps the light source on at the cool-down color temperature (light color) (S19), and reduces the illuminance of the entire light source to keep it on ( S20), it is determined whether or not the cool-down time has passed (S21). If the cool-down time has not elapsed (NO in S21), the control unit 11 continues the process of step S21. If the cool-down time has elapsed (YES in S21), the control unit 11 performs the process of step S13.

  The control unit 11 determines whether or not there is an extinguishing operation (S22), and when there is no extinguishing operation (NO in S22), the processing after step S12 is continued. If there is a turn-off operation (YES in S22), the control unit 11 turns off the light source (S23), and ends the process.

  FIG. 4 is a time chart showing an example of light color control of the light source with respect to the motion mode. As shown in FIG. 4, warm-up, main exercise, and cool-down are provided as exercise modes, and the durations are 5 minutes, 20 minutes, and 5 minutes, respectively. The duration time is an example, and is not limited to this.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the color temperature of the light source is about 6500K and the light color is daylight during warm-up, the color temperature of the light source is about 2800K during main exercise, the light color is light bulb color, and the color temperature of the light source is set during cool-down. Make the light color daylight about 6500K. Thereby, at the time of warm-up, it is possible to gradually get used to exercise without increasing the heart rate, and at the time of main exercise, the heart rate can be increased to enhance exercise effect and improve exercise efficiency. Further, at the time of cool-down, the heart rate can be lowered to prevent injuries such as injury, and the fatigue recovery effect can be enhanced.

  It should be noted that the color temperature and light color of the light source during the main exercise can be changed according to the user's preference. For example, the color temperature of the light source and identification information for identifying the user are associated and stored in the storage unit 19 or the storage unit 25. When acquiring the user identification information through the remote controller 20, the control unit 11 turns on the light source at a color temperature corresponding to the acquired identification information. As a result, even when the user feels the light color differently, the light color of the light source can be set according to the user's preference, and the user can be prevented from feeling uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

  FIG. 5 is a time chart showing another example of the control of the light color of the light source with respect to the motion mode. As shown in FIG. 5, warm-up, main exercise, and cool-down are provided as exercise modes, and each duration is 5 minutes, 20 minutes, and 5 minutes, respectively. The duration time is an example, and is not limited to this.

  As shown in FIG. 5, during the warm-up, the color temperature of the light source is gradually lowered or the color of the light source is gradually brought closer to a warm color as the time elapses. For example, at the start of warm-up, the color of the light source is daylight (a color with a lot of blue wavelength components), the color temperature is about 6500 K, and the color of the light source is gradually changed to the light bulb color (red) as the end of the warm-up time is approached. Colors with many wavelength components) and the color temperature are brought close to about 2800K. As a result, the light color of the light source can be gradually changed during warm-up, and the user can be used to exercise without feeling uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

  Further, during the main exercise, the color temperature of the light source is set to about 2800K, and the light color is set to the light bulb color.

  Further, at the time of cool-down, the color temperature of the light source is gradually increased or the color of the light source is gradually brought closer to a cold color as the time elapses. For example, at the start of cool-down, the color of the light source is set to light bulb color (color with many red wavelength components), the color temperature is set to about 2800K, and the color of the light source is gradually changed to daylight (blue) as the end of the cool-down time is approached. Colors with many wavelength components) and the color temperature are brought close to about 6500K. Thereby, the light color of a light source can be changed gradually during cool-down, and an exercise | movement can be complete | finished without giving discomfort or discomfort to a user.

  FIG. 6 is a time chart showing another example of the control of the light color of the light source with respect to the motion mode. As shown in FIG. 6, warm-up, main exercise, and cool-down are provided as exercise modes, and each duration is 5 minutes, 55 minutes, and 5 minutes, respectively. The duration time is an example, and is not limited to this. The example of FIG. 6 is a case where the main exercise time is longer than the cases of FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 6, at the time of warm-up, the color of the light source is set to daylight color (color with many blue wavelength components) and the color temperature is about 6500K for a few minutes from the start of warm-up, and then the color of the light source is changed over time. Gradually bring the bulb color (color with many red wavelength components) and the color temperature closer to about 2800K. As a result, the light color of the light source can be gradually changed during warm-up, and the user can be used to exercise without feeling uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

  Also, during the main exercise, according to the interval of the exercise in which strong exercise and weak exercise are alternately performed, the color of the light source is a daylight color (a color having a lot of blue wavelength components) and the color temperature is about 6500K, The light source color is a light bulb color (a color with many red wavelength components), and the time for setting the color temperature to about 2800 K is alternately repeated. Thereby, the exercise effect can be enhanced according to the amount of exercise.

  During cool-down, the color of the light source is a light bulb color (color with a lot of red wavelength components), the color temperature is gradually changed from about 2800K, and the color of the light source is gradually daylight (a color with a lot of blue wavelength components). The color temperature is brought close to about 6500K. From a few minutes before the end of the cool-down time, the color of the light source is maintained as daylight (a color with many blue wavelength components) and the color temperature is maintained at about 6500K. Thereby, an exercise | movement can be complete | finished without giving discomfort or discomfort to a user.

  Also, the order of the warm-up, main exercise, and cool-down exercise modes is not limited to the above example. It is possible to cope with transitions of various patterns of motion modes. Further, the main motion may include a plurality of types of main motions having different exercise intensities, and the light color of the light source can be adjusted according to the magnitude of the exercise intensity.

  As described above, according to the present invention, when using an exercise device in a general household, it is possible to enhance the exercise effect while preventing injury or dizziness, and realize an environment for supporting exercise. can do.

  In the above-described embodiment, the duration of warm-up, main exercise, or cool-down is specified, and the duration (exercise time) of the exercise content of each exercise is associated with the light color of the LED module that is the light source. Although it is controlled, the light color may be controlled in accordance with the exercise content (exercise mode) such as warm-up, main exercise, or cool-down of the user's exercise.

  For example, when the user inputs an exercise mode to be performed from the operation unit 22 of the remote controller 20 as the exercise mode acquisition unit, a signal related to the mobility mode is transmitted from the transmission unit 24, and this signal is transmitted to the lighting device. LED modules (white LED module 14 and RGB / LED module 18) that are light sources so that the control unit 11 generates a light color corresponding to the motion mode. Is controlled. Regarding the light color corresponding to the motion mode, as described above, if the motion mode is warm-up or cool-down, a daylight color with a large blue wavelength component or a color with a high color temperature is preferable, and the motion mode is the main motion. If it exists, the color of a light bulb having a large red wavelength component or a color having a low color temperature is preferable.

  In addition, regarding the acquisition of the exercise mode, it is not input and acquired by the operation unit 22 of the remote controller 20, but a movement detection unit (not shown) for detecting the movement of the user is separately provided in the lighting device, The user's movement may be automatically detected, and the light color of the light source may be controlled in accordance with the content of the movement. If the user's movement detected by the motion detector is large and intense, it is judged as the main movement, and a light bulb color with a large red wavelength component or a color with a low color temperature is selected, and the user's movement is small and gentle. For example, it is determined as warm-up or cool-down, and a daylight color having a large blue wavelength component or a color having a high color temperature is selected. The light color may be finely controlled according to the magnitude of the movement.

  As described above, with this configuration, it is not limited to the order of the exercise modes that transition in the order of warm-up, main exercise, and cool-down. It is. Further, if the exercise mode can be automatically detected, the user's input work can be omitted, and the light color of the light source that supports the exercise can be easily controlled.

  In the above-described embodiment, the light color of the light source is a daylight color at the time of warm-up, cool-down, etc., but is not limited to this, such as a daylight white color, a color mixture of daylight color and light bulb color, etc. It can also be. In addition, the light color of the light source is set to the light bulb color during the main exercise, but for example, since the user may be relatively old, instead of the light bulb color, the daylight color and the light bulb color may be changed. By using color mixing, the heart rate can be slightly suppressed.

  In the above-described embodiment, during the main exercise, the light color of the light source is set to a light bulb color (a color with a lot of red wavelength components) or a color with a low color temperature (about 2800 K), so that the user's heart rate In contrast, the exercise effect is improved by increasing the exercise load, but conversely, the light color of the light source is a daylight color (a color with many blue wavelength components) or a color with a high color temperature (about 6500 K to 7000 K). Thus, by reducing the user's heart rate and reducing the exercise load, it is possible to continue the exercise of the user for a long time and realize an exercise effect that improves the endurance of the user.
