4). 4. Method of this embodiment 4.1 Event presentation based on operation input data 4.1.1 Overview Next, event presentation based on operation input data in the event presentation system 10 of this embodiment will be described.

  In the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment, each penlight 100 receives an operation input by a user related to an event presentation, and controls the received operation input as operation input data in order to link the received operation input to the event presentation. 300 can be transmitted.

  Specifically, in the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment, when permitted by the control device 300, slave station initiated communication that voluntarily transmits operation data from the penlight 100, and instructions from the control device 300. Below, when an operation input is executed in the penlight 100 and transmission is permitted, the master station initiated communication for transmitting operation data can be used according to the situation (that is, switched). It has become.

  In the event presentation system 10, the user's will can be transmitted as data from each penlight 100 to the control device 300 that is linked to the event presentation. Further, in the event presentation system 10, the reproduction apparatus 390 in each presentation device or the control device 300 for producing an event such as the loudspeaker control console 400 and the dimming control console 500 can be controlled based on the operation input data. Thus, the user's will can be reflected in the production of the event.

  Therefore, the event production system 10 of the present embodiment can reflect the user's will in the event production, and can enhance the sense of unity in the event through the production in which the user participates.

  In particular, each penlight 100 temporarily stores operation input data in the first buffer 122 in the master station initiated communication, and the operation input data stored in the first buffer 122 under the instruction of the control device 300. Can be read out and transmitted to the control device 300.

  Usually, in the communication system in one communication control device 300 (master station) and a large number of communication terminal devices (slave stations), the communication system is a system that communicates spontaneously from the slave station to the master station. When communicating with the master station all at once, a lot of congestion occurs and many slave stations that cannot communicate with the master station are generated.

  Therefore, in each penlight 100 of the present embodiment, the timing of transmitting operation input data from its own device is controlled under the control of the control device 300, and other penlights 100 are simultaneously used in an event in which many penlights 100 are used. Even when the operation input data has to be transmitted together with the penlight 100, the operation input data of the own device can be reliably transmitted to the control device 300.

4.1.2 Processing Performed in Control Device Next, the control device 300 in event presentation based on the operation input data of the present embodiment will be described.

  A unique ID such as an identification number of each penlight 100 is registered in the terminal management unit 371 through communication with each penlight 100 executed in advance. And the terminal management part 371 manages each penlight 100 based on the said ID.

  Also, the terminal management unit 371 executes slave station initiated communication based on a predetermined instruction. Specifically, when the terminal management unit 371 detects a predetermined instruction such as an instruction input by the operation unit 330, the terminal management unit 371 transmits instruction data for permitting slave station initiated communication via the first communication unit 360. The slave station-initiated communication is executed until all the penlights 100 are simultaneously transmitted, and further, instruction data for prohibiting the slave station-initiated communication is transmitted to all the penlights 100 in accordance with an instruction input by the operation unit 330.

  On the other hand, the terminal management unit 371 is capable of executing communication with a large number of penlights 100 such as an operation instruction from the administrator's operation unit 330, a predetermined time during an event, or an instruction from the loudspeaker control console 400. When instructed, all the penlights 100 are broadcast (broadcast) the start instruction data of the master station initiated communication.

  In addition, when the terminal management unit 371 transmits the start instruction data of the master station initiated communication, the terminal management unit 371 transmits the operation input data based on the ID of the registered penlight 100 and the number of operation input data that can be received at one time. Are extracted, and the data generation unit 372 generates instruction data indicating a data transmission instruction of the operation input data for the extracted penlight 100.

  Then, the terminal management unit 371 simultaneously transmits the transmission instruction data generated by the data generation unit 372 to all the penlights 100 via the communication control unit 146 and the repeater 200.

  For example, the data generation unit 372 extracts the penlight 100 for each predetermined number in a predetermined order such as an ID number order or a registration order when ID registration is performed based on an instruction from the terminal management unit 371, Instruction data including the ID of the extracted penlight 100 is generated.

  Note that the transmission timing (transmission time) of the operation input data in the extracted penlight 100 is determined by the configuration order of the ID of the penlight 100 in the instruction data.

  In the present embodiment, the first communication unit 360 can identify and connect a plurality of repeaters 200 by different communication channels, and each repeater 200 has a plurality of pens. Communication with the light 100 is possible.

  On the other hand, when the terminal management unit 371 receives operation input data from all of the penlights 100 having IDs included in the transmitted transmission instruction data, the terminal management unit 371 extracts the penlight 100 to which transmission instruction data is to be transmitted next. The transmission instruction data generated by the data generation unit 372 is transmitted simultaneously via the first communication unit 360 and the repeater 200.

  In addition, the terminal management unit 371 sequentially registers the process of receiving each operation input data from the penlight 100 included in the transmission instruction data while transmitting the transmission instruction data for each of the plurality of penlights 100. It repeats until it receives the operation input data from all the penlights 100 or all of the penlights 100 that should receive the operation input data.

  When the linkage management unit 373 receives operation input data of each penlight 100 via the repeater 200 and the first communication unit 360, the loudspeaker control is performed via the second communication unit 380 based on the received operation input data. The console 400 and the dimming control console 500 are controlled, or the playback device 390 is controlled via the playback control unit 376 to control sound output or music (karaoke) playback control, venue lighting or stage lighting. Light control can be performed.

  That is, the linkage management unit 373 controls the loudspeaker control console 400, the dimming control console 500, the playback device 390, or some of them based on the received operation input data, and the loudspeaking control console 400, the dimming control console 500. The playback device 390 or some of them is caused to execute a predetermined effect.

  For example, when an operation input associated with a questionnaire is executed for a predetermined effect, one spotlight is selected from a plurality of based on the questionnaire (the most spotlights in the total result) Selection), or the production of an event that outputs one sound from a plurality of sounds based on a questionnaire. Further, as the predetermined effect, when the frequency of the penlight 100 is an operation input, the total number of frequencies in all the penlights 100 or all the penlights 100 belonging to the predetermined group is calculated, and the total number Based on the above, an effect of changing the brightness of the stage lighting or changing the volume of the sound or music output from the playback device 390 or the loudspeaker control console 400 is included.

4.1.3 Processing Performed in Penlight Next, the penlight 100 in the event presentation based on the operation input data of the present embodiment will be described.

  The penlight 100 according to the present embodiment performs slave station initiated communication and parent station initiated communication in conjunction with the control device 300 and transmits operation input data to the control device 300.

  Specifically, the penlight 100 accepts an operation input by the user related to the event effect as the master station-initiated communication, and receives the operation input received in conjunction with the event effect as operation input data to the control device 300. Send.

  In addition, when the penlight 100 receives transmission instruction data indicating a data transmission instruction for operation input data from the control device 300, the penlight 100 transmits operation input data to the control device 300 under the control of the processing unit 140. ing.

  In particular, the penlight 100 includes a storage unit 120 in which received operation input data is stored until the wireless communication unit 130 receives transmission instruction data. That is, the penlight 100 stores corresponding instruction data (instruction data indicating that transmission of the own device is permitted) until it is received.

  The communication control unit 146 operates in conjunction with the operation input processing unit 143 and, when performing slave station initiated communication based on a predetermined operation in the operation unit 103, instructs the control device 300 to perform slave station initiated communication. When the data indicating the permission of the slave station initiated communication in the control device 300 is received, the operation input is permitted, and the input operation input is used as the operation input data via the wireless communication unit 130. Send to.

  In addition, when the communication control unit 146 receives the start instruction data of the master station initiative communication via the wireless communication unit 130 in conjunction with the operation input processing unit 143, the communication control unit 146 performs master station initiative communication.

  In particular, when the communication control unit 146 receives the start instruction data of the master station initiated communication, the operation input processing unit 143 displays the frequency of the acceleration detection unit 110 or the direction of the penlight 100, and the three buttons on the operation unit 103. Of these, the input of the operation unit 103 such as the type (number) of the selected button is permitted. Then, the storage control unit 142 stores the operation input received in conjunction with the operation input processing unit 143 as operation input data in the storage unit 120 (specifically, the first buffer 122).

  Further, the communication control unit 146 stores the storage control unit when the communication control unit 146 receives the corresponding transmission instruction data, that is, the transmission instruction data including the transmission instruction of the operation input data in its own device in the master station initiated communication. The operation input data stored in the storage unit 120 in conjunction with 142 is read and transmitted to the control device 300.

  Note that the communication control unit 146 does not perform transmission of operation input data when the communication control unit 146 receives transmission instruction data that does not include an operation input data transmission instruction in its own device.

  Further, when the storage control unit 142 accepts the input operation input and stores it in the storage unit 120, the storage control unit 142 prevents the operation input from being overwritten until the stored operation input data is transmitted to the control device 300. Alternatively, overwriting may be repeated until corresponding instruction data (that is, instruction data including the ID of the own device) is received.

  Furthermore, various buttons may be provided for confirming or canceling the operation input such as the confirm button or the cancel button in the operation unit 103, and the operation input processing unit 143 may accept the operation input based on the operation of the button. When the operation input requires a plurality of operation inputs such as the frequency, the storage control unit 142 adds the newly input operation input to the stored operation input data and stores it in the storage unit 120. May be.

  On the other hand, the penlight 100 according to the present embodiment executes an effect for interlocking with the effect of the event, and accepts an operation input at the time of slave station initiated communication or parent station initiated communication under the control of the processing unit 140. When the operation input is transmitted to the control device 300, a predetermined effect such as the light emission state of the own device is executed. In particular, the penlight 100 changes the light emission state of the light emitting unit 101 based on the received terminal effect control data.

  Specifically, the effect control unit 145 is stored in the storage unit 120 when the operation input is received by the operation input unit, or while the operation input is being input (that is, during reception), and by the storage control unit 142. When the stored operation input data is transmitted to the control device 300, the light emitting unit 101 is controlled to execute a predetermined effect.

  For example, when one of the three buttons on the operation unit 103 is pressed down, the effect control unit 145 emits a predetermined color such as red or blue, or inputs the frequency. The light emitting unit 101 is caused to execute a light emitting mode (flashing) that repeats light emission and extinction of a predetermined color.

  Further, when the production control unit 145 transmits the operation input data stored in the storage unit 120 by the storage control unit 142, the light emission color or the light emission mode of the light emitting unit 101 based on the operation data stored in the storage unit 120. The effect mode is executed by changing.

  In particular, when the operation input is accepted by the operation input unit, the effect control unit 145 changes the light emission color according to the type (number) of the button selected from the three buttons on the operation unit 103.

  In the present embodiment, the operation input data is temporarily stored and transmitted to the control device 300 from only the corresponding penlight 100 by the master station initiated communication. It has a configuration in which an operation input input by the operation unit 103 can be immediately transmitted to the control device 300 without being stored.

  Further, based on a predetermined operation in the operation unit 103 or reception of predetermined data from the control device 300, the slave station initiated communication and the parent station initiated communication can be switched.

4.2 Penlight control in event (interlocking control in control device)
4.2.1 Overview Next, penlight control (linked control in the control device) in an event of the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment will be described.

  The event presentation system 10 according to the present embodiment controls each penlight 100 in accordance with the production of an event such as sound output or music (karaoke) reproduction, dimming such as venue lighting or stage lighting. In other words, the event presentation system 10 according to the present embodiment performs penlight control with the event presentation.

  In particular, in the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment, the penlight 100 can execute a plurality of presentation modes, and the terminal presentation control data in which a combination of the plurality of presentation modes is defined is transmitted to the control device 300. And the acquired terminal effect control data is stored. And the penlight 100 can read the terminal presentation control data memorize | stored according to the advancing time of an event, and can control execution of the presentation aspect of the said presentation means based on the read said terminal presentation control data. .

  That is, the penlight 100 according to the present embodiment receives terminal effect control data having an effect execution time that is a time for controlling the light emission mode of the light emitting unit 101 in synchronization with the control device 300 by the effect execution time.

  Then, the penlight 100 reads out the corresponding terminal effect control data at the timing when the progress time synchronized with the control device 300 becomes the effect execution time or after the effect execution time, and based on the read terminal effect control data. It is possible to execute an effect in conjunction with the event.

  Thus, in this embodiment, since the penlight 100 can acquire and store the effect mode from the control device 300 in advance, the terminal effect control data for controlling the effect mode is accurately acquired and the event is in progress. Even so, the production mode can be surely executed.

  That is, since the penlight 100 can receive and store the terminal effect control data by the effect execution time in advance, the terminal effect control data can be repeatedly transmitted by the control device 300 until the effect execution time. In addition, non-reception due to various problems such as communication failure, transmission error, or reception error can be prevented.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, since a user can be surely participated in an event, a sense of unity in the event can be enhanced through an effect in which the user participates.

  And the penlight 100 can receive the instruction | indication from the control apparatus 300 exactly, can perform the effect of an event reliably, and can synchronize the timing which performs terminal effect control data with the control apparatus 300. FIG. Therefore, the production of the event and the production executed by the own machine can be reliably linked.

4.2.2 Production control data group (terminal production control data)
Next, an effect control data group (terminal effect control data) used for penlight control (linked control in the control device) in the event of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

  FIG. 5 is an example of the effect control data group transmitted from the control device 300 to each penlight 100, and FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the terminal effect control data included in the effect control data group in the present embodiment. FIG.

  The terminal effect control data is generated in the control device 300 as a group of effect control data having a packet structure together with a plurality of other terminal effect control data whose effect execution times are continuous, and is simultaneously transmitted to all the penlights 100. Then, when the terminal effect control data corresponding to the own device is acquired in each penlight 100, the acquired terminal effect control data is stored in the second buffer 123 and at the corresponding progress time or a time after that. Read and execute.

  The effect control data group has terminal effect control data for a certain number, a certain amount, or a certain time within the maximum size.

  For example, an effect control data group having the same terminal effect control data by all penlights 100 is a single start time or a start time that is a reference when generating the data group, as shown in FIG. For each terminal effect control data, the difference time from the start time or the absolute reference time, that is, data indicating the effect execution time (hereinafter also referred to as “effect execution time data”). And command data for driving the light emitting unit 101 in each penlight 100.

  The difference time is a start time such as “0” seconds, “+1 second”, and “+2 seconds” or a difference time from the absolute reference time. The command data is command data such as command A, command B, and command C, and is data for controlling the light emission mode of the light emitting unit 101 of the penlight 100.

  The production control data group includes various data necessary for constructing a packet (not shown) such as a packet ID. The penlight 100 may have a plurality of IDs, and may be IDs for each predetermined group as long as the penlight 100 can recognize the IDs. Furthermore, you may have the terminal production | presentation control data which consist of command data respectively different by ID of the some penlight 100 in one presentation control data group.

  Further, for example, an effect control data group having terminal effect control data executed by a specific penlight 100 is used as a reference when a single start time or the data group is generated, as shown in FIG. And the difference time and the command data may be included for each ID of the penlight 100 to be specified and the terminal effect control data.

  On the other hand, the effect control data is generated in the control device 300 at every predetermined timing, and every time the effect control data group is generated, the terminal effect control data with the earlier effect progress time included in the previously generated effect control data group. Is deleted and terminal effect control data with a late effect progress time is newly incorporated, and terminal effect control data is sequentially overlapped in time (a part of a plurality of terminal effect control data is overlapped). Generated) and sent and received.

  For example, from 50 seconds to 53 seconds after the start time (that is, at the progress time) as the current time, each effect control data (that is, future data) whose effect execution time is from 1 minute to 1 minute and 6 seconds per second. When the production control data group including the production control data group is generated, as shown in FIG. 6A, every time the production control data group is produced, the production progress time included in the production control data group generated last time. The earliest terminal effect control data is deleted, and the latest terminal effect control data with the latest effect progress time is newly incorporated.

  That is, after 50 seconds from the start time, an effect control data group including each terminal effect control data from 1 minute to 1 minute 4 seconds is generated, and after 51 seconds from the start time, the effect execution time Production control data group including each terminal production control data from 1 minute 1 second to 1 minute 5 seconds is generated. In addition, after 20 seconds from the start time, an effect control data group including each terminal effect control data whose effect execution time is from 1 minute 2 seconds to 1 minute 6 seconds is generated.

  In addition, from 50 seconds to 53 seconds after the start time (that is, at the progress time) as the current time, the production control data group including the production control data of production execution time from 1 minute to 1 minute 6 seconds every second 6B, as shown in FIG. 6B, at the predetermined timing (2 seconds), the previously generated effect control data group is repeated and the effects included in the previously generated effect control data group A plurality of (second) terminal effect control data with the earliest progress time are deleted, and an effect control data group in which a plurality of (second) terminal effect control data with the latest effect progress time is newly generated is sequentially generated. May be.

  In this case, the control device 300 or the repeater 200 stores the production control data every time it is generated, and after 51 seconds and 53 seconds from the start time, via the wireless communication unit 130 and the repeater 200. Effect control data group generated last time, that is, an effect control data group including terminal effect control data from 1 minute to 1 minute 4 seconds, or an effect including terminal effect control data from 1 minute 2 seconds to 1 minute 6 seconds The control data group is retransmitted.

  Further, in the above-described effect control data, one terminal effect control data from the command A to the command G is included for each effect time, but a plurality of terminal effect control data is included in one effect time. Also good.

4.2.3 Processing executed in control device Next, processing executed in the control device 300 when penlight control is performed in the event of the present embodiment (when interlocking control is performed in the control device) will be described.

  The control device 300 according to the present embodiment is linked to the loudspeaker control console 400 and the dimming control console 500 used for the event effect, or the playback device 390 used for the event effect. Moreover, the control apparatus 300 transmits the same terminal effect control data to each penlight 100 repeatedly several times.

  In particular, the control device 300 manages each penlight 100 while managing the traveling time, and generates the above-described effect control data group. The same terminal effect control data is repeated in the penlight 100. Send.

  The linkage management unit 373 receives predetermined presentation data from the loudspeaker control console 400 or the dimming control console 500 via the second communication unit 380 and reproduces predetermined music data from the reproduction device 390 via the reproduction control unit 376. While executing the control, the data generation unit 372 is provided with predetermined data.

  For example, the interlocking management unit 373 has terminal effect control program data based on music data, and performs playback control of music data in the playback device 390 according to the program, while playing back the played music as a sound output unit 350. And output from the speaker SP via the power amplifier PA. Then, the interlocking management unit 373 controls the dimming table based on the production control data defined according to the music data, and controls stage lighting, venue lighting, and the like.

  In addition, the linkage management unit 373 outputs data for controlling the light emission mode of the penlight 100 to the data generation unit 372 according to the program. In particular, the interlocking management unit 373 performs the same effect control on all the penlights 100 simultaneously based on the IDs of the penlights 100 registered in the terminal management unit 371, and is different for each group or each penlight 100. It is possible to perform effect control, and the data generation unit 372 generates an effect control data group having such terminal effect control data based on the data.

  The time control unit 375 manages the progress time for advancing the event presentation in order to establish synchronization with the repeater 200 and each penlight 100. Specifically, the time control unit 375 determines the start time based on an instruction from the operation unit 103 and other instructions, and causes the repeater 200 to manage the progress time based on a predetermined communication protocol (protocol). The penlight 100 manages the progress time based on the difference (delay) from the start time.

  For example, when synchronizing with the repeater 200, the time control unit 375 establishes synchronization with each repeater 200 via the first communication unit 360 while managing the current time at each predetermined timing. To the repeater 200, the reception time (T2) of the request packet transmitted from the repeater 200 instructed to establish synchronization and the transmission time (T3) of the response packet to the request packet are provided to the repeater 200.

  At this time, the repeater 200 transmits the provided transmission time (T3) and reception time (T2) and the transmission time of the request packet transmitted to the time control unit 375 when the establishment of the synchronization is instructed. Based on (T1) and the reception time (T4) of the response packet to the request packet transmitted from the time control unit 375, the time difference DT shown in (Equation 1) is calculated, and the time correction in the repeater 200 is performed. Execute and synchronize with progress time.

  Time difference DT = {(T2-T1) + (T3-T4)} / 2 (Formula 1)

  The penlight 100 is synchronized with the control device 300 by synchronizing with the synchronized repeater 200 as described above. Specifically, each penlight 100 manages a time difference delayed by communication in advance, and adds a predetermined time difference to the advance time given to the packet transmitted from the repeater 200 to synchronize with the advance time. It is supposed to be.

  As described above, the terminal management unit 371 manages each penlight 100 based on a unique ID such as an identification number of each penlight 100, and a predetermined timing such as when the penlight 100 is turned on. The communication is performed with each penlight 100, and the ID of each penlight 100 is acquired and managed. In particular, the terminal management unit 371 performs management by storing the ID of the managed penlight 100 in the storage unit 310.

  The data generation unit 372 includes a plurality of terminal effect control data executed by each penlight 100 based on the effect data provided from the linkage management unit 373 and the start time and progress time provided from the time control unit 375. An effect control data group is generated, and the generated effect control data group is broadcast (broadcast) via the first communication unit 360 and the repeater 200.

  Specifically, for each predetermined timing, the data generation unit 372 has an effect execution time that is a future time at a predetermined time from the current time and belongs to a plurality of effect execution times based on the provided effect data. An effect control data group including a plurality of terminal effect control data is generated based on the data.

  In particular, as described above, the data generation unit 372 generates an effect control data group at every predetermined timing, and every time the effect control data group is generated, the effect progress time included in the effect control data group generated last time The effect control data group in which the terminal effect control data with the earlier effect deletion time is deleted and the terminal effect control data with the later effect progress time is newly incorporated, that is, the effect control data group overlapped in time is generated, and the same The terminal effect control data is repeatedly transmitted to the penlight 100 a plurality of times.

  At this time, the first communication unit 360 monitors the presence or absence of data generation in the data generation unit 372 at every predetermined timing. When the data generation unit 372 does not generate new terminal effect control data, wireless communication is performed. The effect control data generated last time via the unit 130 and the repeater 200 and stored in the storage unit 310 or the storage unit 210 is retransmitted to the penlight 100.

4.2.4 Process Performed in Penlight Next, a process performed in the penlight 100 at the time of penlight control in the event of the present embodiment (during linked control in the control device) will be described.

  The penlight 100 receives the terminal effect control data related to the event effect transmitted from the control device 300, stores the received terminal effect control data, and reads the stored terminal effect control data at a predetermined timing. An effect mode for interlocking with the effect of the event is executed based on the read terminal effect control data.

  In particular, the penlight 100 synchronizes with the control device 300 to manage the progress time for advancing the effect of the event, and the terminal effect control data including information on the effect execution time for executing the effect, It is received by the execution time, and the corresponding terminal effect control data is read out at the timing when the progress time is the effect execution time or after the effect execution time, and is linked to the event effect based on the read terminal effect control data. The production mode is executed.

  The penlight 100 stores a plurality of terminal effect control data including the effect execution time. When the terminal effect control data having a predetermined condition is received, the penlight 100 is received. Data is discarded without memorizing.

  In this predetermined condition, the received terminal effect control data is the same as the already stored terminal effect control data, the received terminal effect control data is terminal effect control data irrelevant to the own device, and This includes that there is no storable area.

  The communication control unit 146 can receive terminal effect control data having information on the effect execution time for executing the effect as time information via the wireless communication unit 130 by the effect execution time. .

  In particular, when receiving the effect control data group, the communication control unit 146 determines whether or not the terminal effect control data corresponding to the own device is included in the received effect control data group, and the storage control unit 142 It is determined whether there is an area that can be stored in the second buffer 123.

  When the storage control unit 142 determines that the terminal control data corresponding to the own device is included in the presentation control data group and there is an area that can be stored in the second buffer 123, the storage control unit 146 The corresponding terminal effect control data included in the received effect control data group is stored in the second buffer 123.

  Note that the storage control unit 142 may store the terminal effect control data in the second buffer 123 with the same absolute time as the progress time for the effect execution time, or the start time described in the effect control data group Alternatively, the terminal effect control data may be stored in the second buffer 123 based on the difference time based on the reference time.

  If the communication control unit 146 determines that the terminal effect control data of its own device is not included in the received effect control data group, the communication control unit 146 discards the received effect control data and the storage control unit 142 Even when it is determined that there is no area that can be stored in the second buffer 123, the received effect control data group is discarded.

  For example, the received effect control data group includes 20 terminal effect control data for the penlight 100A and the penlight 100B, and the second buffer 123 of the penlight 100A has a maximum of ten. When terminal effect control data can be stored and ten terminal effect control data have already been stored in the second buffer 123, the communication control unit 146 in the penlight 100A is connected to all the penlights 100B. While discarding the terminal effect control data, the storage control unit 142 in the penlight 100A discards all the terminal effect control data in the received penlight 100B.

  The effect control unit 145 manages the terminal effect control data stored in the second buffer 123, and the progress time managed by the time management unit 141 becomes the effect execution time, or the progress time is the effect execution time. Is passed, the corresponding terminal effect control data is read, and the light emitting unit 101 is caused to execute a predetermined effect mode based on the read terminal effect control data.

  At this time, the storage control unit 142 deletes the terminal effect control data whose effect execution time has passed from the second buffer 123.

  Note that the storage control unit 142 is stored in the second buffer 123 whose progress time has passed the effect execution time even if the terminal effect control data is not read by the effect control unit 145. The terminal presentation control data being discarded is discarded.

  However, the effect control unit 145 executes the terminal effect control data stored in the second buffer 123 in order of the effect execution time, and when the progress time and the effect execution time are shifted, the progress time and the effect The terminal effect control data may be read out and processed in fast-forward until the execution time is met (for example, it is processed at twice the normal speed). In this case, the storage control unit 142 sequentially deletes the executed terminal effect control data.

  Further, the effect control unit 145 reads out the corresponding terminal effect control data at the timing when the progress time managed by the time management unit 141 is after the effect execution time, and performs a predetermined effect based on the read terminal effect control data. You may make the light emission part 101 perform.

4.3 Penlight control in event (single control in penlight)
4.3.1 Overview Next, penlight control (single control in a penlight) in an event of the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment will be described.

  The event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment controls the presentation mode of each penlight 100 based on the terminal presentation control data set by the user's operation input when the event presentation is being executed. Yes.

  In particular, in the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment, the penlight 100 can execute a plurality of presentation modes, and is set and input at a predetermined timing such as before the event starts. The terminal effect control data in which the combination is defined is stored. And the penlight 100 can read the terminal presentation control data memorize | stored during the event, and can control execution of the presentation aspect of the light emission part 101 based on the read said terminal presentation control data.

4.3.2 Processing executed in penlight Next, processing executed in the penlight 100 at the time of penlight control in the event of the present embodiment (during independent control in the penlight) will be described.

  The penlight 100 is set and inputted with terminal effect control data, and stores the terminal effect control data set and input in the second buffer 123.

  The operation input processing unit 143 acquires terminal effect control data input and set via the operation unit 103 and the acceleration detection unit 110. Specifically, the operation input processing unit 143 adjusts the light emission time or the light extinction time to turn off, the number of repetitions of light emission and light extinction, and the number of repetitions of light emission and light extinction, in addition to the setting of light emission by a predetermined color in the light emission unit or the setting of the light emission off An effect mode such as a combination is set as terminal effect control data using the operation unit 103 and the acceleration detection unit 110.

  Then, the operation input processing unit 143 stores the set terminal effect control data in the second buffer 123.

  The various setting information unit 124 already stores various data for setting the production mode in the light emitting unit 101, such as program data of the light emission mode executed in conjunction with the operation of the operation unit 103 or the acceleration detection unit 110. ing. And the operation input process part 143 can set the data which prescribe | regulate the effect aspect selected by the operation part 103 and the acceleration detection part 110, or its combination as terminal effect control data.

  The effect control unit 145 reads the terminal effect control data stored in the second buffer 123 at a predetermined timing such as during an event, and controls the light emitting unit 101 based on the read terminal effect control data.

  The predetermined timing is a timing at which a predetermined input is made by the operation unit 103 or the acceleration detection unit 110, or a timing at which an instruction to execute the terminal effect control data stored from the control device 300 is received. is there.

  For example, when the user instructs the execution of the terminal effect control data by operating the operation unit 103 based on a predetermined signal during the event, the effect control unit 145 reads the stored terminal effect control data. The light emitting unit 101 is controlled according to the production mode set by the user.

  Further, when the wireless communication unit 130 receives the above instruction from the control device 300 during the event, the effect control unit 145 reads the terminal effect control data stored at the timing when the instruction is received, and the effect set by the user The light emitting unit 101 is controlled according to the mode.

  In addition, the light emission part 101 controls the light emission and light extinction of a light emission unit based on execution of terminal effect control data, and performs a predetermined effect aspect.

4.4 Other Processing 4.4.1 Penlight Forced Control In the event presentation system 10 according to the present embodiment, as described above, the light is emitted depending on the operation of the operation unit 103 by the user because it is linked to the control device 300. The light emission mode of the unit 101 cannot be freely controlled.

  However, it may be desired to operate freely according to the user's operation such as a predetermined period during the event, before the start of the event, or at the end of the event.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the penlight 100 includes an effect control unit 145 that controls the light emitting unit 101 based on a user's operation input from the operation unit 103, and the wireless communication unit 130 controls the light emitting unit 101. When the forced invalidation data for invalidating the user's operation input is received, the user's operation input is invalidated.

  Specifically, the penlight 100 controls the light emitting unit 101 based on the user's operation input by the operation unit 103 and receives forced invalidation data that invalidates the user's operation input transmitted from the control device 300. In this case, the user's operation input is invalidated.

  For example, in the control device 300, the terminal management unit 371 generates forced invalid data including the ID of the penlight 100 for the corresponding penlight 100. In the corresponding penlight 100, when the operation input processing unit 143 receives the forced invalidation data via the communication control unit 146, the operation input processing unit 143 invalidates the operation input by the user.

  In other words, the penlight 100 constantly monitors the forced invalidation data transmitted from the control device 300, and when receiving the forced invalidation data, the effect control unit 145 invalidates the operation input of the user.

  With this configuration, in the present embodiment, while freely participating in the event presentation based on the user's will, it is surely linked with the event presentation such as switching to the presentation led by the interlocking control device 300 or use prohibition. Be able to.

5.1.2 Master Station Initiated Communication Next, an example of event effect processing based on operation input data during master station initiated communication will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10.

  9 is an example of the operation process of the penlight 100 in the event presentation based on the operation input data during the master station initiative communication, and FIG. 10 is the event presentation based on the operation input data during the master station initiative communication. It is an example of the operation processing of the control apparatus 300 in FIG.

  In this operation, the penlight 100, the repeater 200, and the control device 300 are in a communicable state such that each penlight 100 is turned on and each penlight 100 is already registered in the control device 300. Suppose that In addition, when predetermined data is transmitted from the penlight 100 to the control device 300, and when predetermined data is transmitted from the control device 300 to the penlight 100, data is exchanged via the repeater 200, respectively. Is called. Here, the processing of the repeater 200 will be omitted.

(Penlight operation)
First, when the communication control unit 146 detects that the master station initiated communication in the penlight 100 transmitted from the control device 300 is performed (step S201), the operation input processing unit 143 receives a user operation input (step S202). ). At this time, the operation input processing unit 143 receives a single button press or vibration of the penlight 100 as an operation input. Further, the effect control unit 145 causes the light emitting unit 101 to execute a predetermined effect according to the operation input.

  Next, the storage control unit 142 stores the received operation input in the first buffer 122 (step S203). At this time, the communication control unit 146 waits until receiving corresponding transmission instruction data, that is, transmission instruction data including a transmission instruction of operation input data in the own device.

  Next, when the communication control unit 146 receives transmission instruction data including an operation input data transmission instruction in its own device (step S204), the communication control unit 146 operates the storage control unit 142 in conjunction with the operation input data stored in the first buffer 122. This is read and transmitted to the control device 300 (step S205), and this operation is terminated.

(Operation of control device)
First, when the terminal management unit 371 detects an instruction of parent station initiated communication (step S230), the terminal management unit 371 transmits start instruction data of parent station initiated communication to all the penlights 100 (step S231). As described above, this predetermined instruction is an operation instruction from the administrator's operation unit 103, a predetermined time during an event, or an instruction from the loudspeaker control console 400, the dimming control console 500, or the playback device 390. It is.

  Next, the data generation unit 372 extracts a plurality of penlights 100 that permit transmission of operation input data based on the registered ID of the penlight 100 and the number of operation input data that can be received at one time ( Step S232).

  Next, the data generation unit 372 generates instruction data indicating a data transmission instruction of the operation input data for the extracted one or more penlights 100, and the transmission generated via the first communication unit 360 and the repeater 200. The instruction data is transmitted all at once to all the penlights 100 (step S233). At this time, the first communication unit 360 waits for reception of operation input data transmitted from the corresponding penlight 100.

  Next, when the first communication unit 360 receives the operation input data transmitted from the corresponding penlight 100 (step S234), the terminal management unit 371 executes a predetermined process on the received operation input data and stores the storage unit 310. (Step S235).

  Next, the terminal management unit 371 determines whether or not the operation input data in all the penlights 100 extracted in the process of step S232 has been received (step S236), and the extracted operation input data in all the penlights 100 is received. If it is determined that it has been received, the process proceeds to step S237.

  If the terminal management unit 371 determines that it has not received the operation input data for all the extracted penlights 100, the terminal management unit 371 waits for the reception of the operation input data transmitted from the corresponding penlights 100, The process proceeds to S234.

  Next, the terminal management unit 371 determines whether or not the operation input data in all the penlights 100 registered in the terminal management unit 371 has been received (step S237), and all the pens registered in the terminal management unit 371 are determined. If it is determined that the operation input data in the light 100 has been received, the process proceeds to step S238.

  If the terminal management unit 371 determines that operation input data for all the registered penlights 100 has not been received, the terminal management unit 371 proceeds to the process of step S233.

  Next, the linkage management unit 373 executes predetermined processing based on the registered operation input data in all the penlights 100, and the loudspeaker control console 400 or the dimming control console 500 via the second communication unit 380. Alternatively, the playback device 390 is caused to execute a predetermined effect via the playback control unit 376 (step S238), and this operation is ended.

5.2 Penlight control in event presentation 5.2.1 Interlocking control with control device Next, the penlight control (interlocking control with the control device) processing in event presentation will be described with reference to FIGS. An example will be described.

  FIG. 11 is an example of the main process of the control device 300 during the penlight control in the event presentation, and FIG. 12 shows the data generation process executed in the control device 300 during the penlight control in the event presentation. It is an example. FIG. 13 is an example of the main process of the penlight 100 during the penlight control in the event presentation, and FIG. 14 shows the presentation control process executed in the penlight 100 during the penlight control in the event presentation. It is an example.

  In this operation, the penlight 100, the repeater 200, and the control device 300 are in a communicable state such that the penlight 100 is turned on and the penlight 100 is already registered in the control device 300. Assume that synchronization is established. In addition, when predetermined data is transmitted from the penlight 100 to the control device 300, and when predetermined data is transmitted from the control device 300 to the penlight 100, data is exchanged via the repeater 200, respectively. Is called. Here, the processing of the repeater 200 will be omitted.

(Main processing in the control device)
First, when the interlocking management unit 373 detects the start of control of the penlight 100 accompanying the production of an event based on a predetermined instruction (step S301), the time control unit 375 sets a start time (step S302). Note that the time control unit 375 may start synchronization with the repeater 200 and each penlight 100 during the process of step S302.

  Next, the terminal management unit 371 transmits to all the penlights 100 that the control associated with the production of the event is performed, invalidates the user operation and puts it under the control of the control device 300 (hereinafter, “operation input invalidation”). Process ”) (step S303). For example, the terminal management unit 371 executes the forced control process of the penlight 100 described above in conjunction with the communication control unit 146 of the penlight 100.

  Next, the link management unit 373 starts receiving and receiving predetermined presentation data from the loudspeaker control console 400 or the dimming control console 500 or the predetermined music data from the playback device 390 via the second communication unit 380. The effect data or the music data is sequentially provided to the data generation unit 372 (step S305).

  Next, the data generation unit 372 starts generating the production control data group based on the production data or the music data provided from the interlocking management unit 373 based on the start time (step S306).

  Next, when the time control unit 375 detects the start time, the linkage management unit 373 starts to link with the loudspeaker control console 400, the dimming control console 500, or the playback device 390 via the second communication unit 380 ( Step S307). At this time, for example, reproduction of music data is started by the loudspeaker control console 400 or from the playback device 390, or dimming control is started by the dimming control console 500.

  Next, the linkage management unit 373 determines whether or not the linkage with the loudspeaker control console 400, the dimming control console 500, or the playback device 390 has ended (step S308).

  At this time, if the linkage management unit 373 determines that the linkage with the loudspeaker control console 400, the dimming control console 500, or the playback device 390 has ended, it instructs the data generation unit 372 to end data generation. .

  Finally, the terminal management unit 371 transmits data (hereinafter referred to as “release data”) for canceling the control of the penlight 100 associated with the event presentation in conjunction with the first communication unit 360 (step S309). This operation is terminated.

(Production control data group generation processing in the control device)
First, when the generation of the effect control data group is started by the process of step S307, the data generation unit 372 starts from the start time or the effect execution time of the earliest terminal effect control data included in the previously generated effect control data group. An effect control data group having terminal effect control data from a time after a predetermined time has elapsed to a predetermined effect execution time is generated, and the generated effect control data group is stored in the storage unit (step S321).

  Next, the first communication unit 360 simultaneously transmits the effect control data group stored in the storage unit to all the penlights 100 (step S322).

  Note that the repeater 200 may execute the process of step S322. In this case, the effect control data group generated in the process of step S321 is stored in the storage unit of the repeater 200.

  Next, the data generation unit 372 determines whether or not the end of the interlocking with the loudspeaker control console 400, the dimming control console 500, or the playback device 390 is determined by the interlock management unit 373 (step S323), and the interlocking ends. If it is determined, this operation is terminated. If it is not determined that the interlocking is terminated, the process proceeds to step S324.

  Next, the data generation unit 372 determines whether or not it is the next production control data group generation timing (step S325), and if it is determined that it is the next production control data group generation timing, the process of step S321 is performed. If it is determined that it is not the generation timing of the next production control data group, the process proceeds to step 322.

(Main processing in penlight)
First, when the first communication unit 360 receives information from the control device 300 that the penlight 100 is controlled (ie, forced control) accompanying the event presentation (step S400), the first communication unit 360 is under the control of the control device 300. The process is executed (step S401). For example, the communication control unit 146 performs the forced control process of the penlight 100 described above in conjunction with the terminal management unit 371 of the control device 300. At this time, the time management unit 141 may establish synchronization with the control device 300 and the repeater 200. Further, the communication control unit 146 waits for reception of the effect control data group.

  Next, the effect control unit 145 starts effect control based on the terminal effect control data stored in the second buffer 123 based on the progress time in conjunction with the time management unit 141 (step S402).

  Next, when receiving the effect control data group (step S403), the communication control unit 146 determines whether or not the terminal effect control data for the own device is included in the received effect control data group (step S404). At this time, if the communication control unit 146 determines that the terminal effect control data for the own device is included in the received effect control data group, the communication control unit 146 proceeds to the process of step S405 and receives the received effect control data. If it is determined that the terminal effect control data for the own device is not included in the group, the process proceeds to step S408.

  Next, when it is determined that the terminal control data for the own device is included in the effect control data group received by the communication control unit 146, the storage control unit 142 has a storage area in the second buffer 123. Is determined (step S405). At this time, if the storage control unit 142 determines that there is a storage area in the second buffer 123, the storage control unit 142 proceeds to the process of step S 406, and if it determines that there is no storage area in the second buffer 123. The process proceeds to step S408.

  Next, if the storage control unit 142 determines that the second buffer 123 has a storage area, the terminal effect control data for the own device included in the received effect control data group has already been stored in the second buffer 123. It is determined whether or not the data is stored (step S406).

  At this time, if the storage control unit 142 determines that the terminal effect control data for the own device included in the received effect control data group is data already stored in the second buffer 123, step S408 is performed. If it is determined that the terminal effect control data for the own device included in the received effect control data group is not already stored in the second buffer 123, the process proceeds to step S407. To do.

  Next, if the storage control unit 142 determines that the terminal effect control data for the own device included in the received effect control data group is data that is not already stored in the second buffer 123, the received effect The terminal effect control data for the own device included in the control data group is stored in the second buffer 123 (step S407).

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the terminal effect control data for the own device is not included in the received effect control data group, the communication control unit 146 determines that there is no storage area in the second buffer 123. Or when it is determined that the terminal effect control data for the own device included in the received effect control data group is already stored in the second buffer 123, the received effect control data group is discarded. (Step S408).

  Finally, the communication control unit 146 determines whether or not data for releasing the control of the penlight 100 accompanying the event presentation transmitted from the control device 300 has been received (step S409). At this time, if the communication control unit 146 has not received data for canceling the control of the penlight 100 accompanying the event presentation transmitted from the control device 300, the communication control unit 146 proceeds to the process of step S403, and When data for canceling is received, this operation is terminated.

  In the process of step S410, the communication control unit 146 may instruct the effect control unit 145 to end this operation. In this case, the effect control unit 145 is instructed to end the operation. This operation ends.

(Production control processing in penlight)
First, when the production control unit 145 starts production control based on the terminal production control data stored in the second buffer 123 based on the progress time in conjunction with the time management unit 141 by the process of step S402, It is determined whether the earliest effect execution time stored in the second buffer 123 in conjunction with the management unit 141 matches the progress time, or whether the progress time has passed the earliest effect execution time. (Step S421).

  At this time, the effect control unit 145 determines that the earliest effect execution time stored in the second buffer 123 matches the progress time, or the progress time has passed the earliest effect execution time. If determined, the terminal effect control data having the effect execution time is read in conjunction with the storage control unit 142 and the effect mode is executed (step S422), and the process proceeds to step S424. At this time, the storage control unit 142 discards the read terminal effect control data.

  On the other hand, the effect control unit 145 determines that the earliest effect execution time stored in the second buffer 123 and the progress time do not match, or the progress time has passed the earliest effect execution time. If it is determined that it is not, it waits for a predetermined time (for example, 1 second) (step S423) and repeats the process of step S422.

  Next, the storage control unit 142 determines whether or not the terminal effect control data is still stored in the second buffer 123 (step S424). If the terminal effect control data is stored, step S421 is performed. If the terminal effect control data is not stored, the operation is terminated.

5.2.2 Penlight Single Control Next, an example of processing of penlight control (penlight single control) in event production will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16.

  FIG. 15 is an example of terminal effect control data setting processing at the time of penlight control (penlight single control) in the event effect of this embodiment, and FIG. 16 is a pen in the event effect of this embodiment. It is an example of the terminal effect control data execution process at the time of light control (single control of penlight).

  In this operation, the various setting information unit 124 stores various data for setting the production mode in the light emitting unit 101, such as the command data of the light emission mode executed in conjunction with the operation of the operation unit 103 or the acceleration detection unit 110. Already remembered.

(Terminal effect control data setting process)
First, when it is detected that the operation input processing unit 143 performs setting input of terminal effect control data by the user based on the operation of the operation unit 103 or the like (step S501), the operation input processing unit 143 receives the second buffer. Predetermined initialization such as initialization of 123 is executed (step S502).

  Next, the operation input processing unit 143 receives the light emitting mode of the light emitting unit 101 set by the user, that is, the production mode, in conjunction with the operating unit 103, the acceleration detecting unit 110, or them (step S503).

  Next, the operation input processing unit 143 converts the received effect mode into terminal effect control data and stores it in the second buffer 123 (step S504), and ends this operation.

(Terminal effect control data execution processing)
First, when the effect control unit 145 detects that the terminal effect control data is executed by the user based on an operation of the operation unit 103 or an instruction from the control device 300 by the wireless communication unit 130 (step S511), the effect control is performed. Unit 145 reads the terminal effect control data stored in second buffer 123 (step S512).

  Next, the effect control unit 145 starts controlling the light emission mode of the light emitting unit 101 based on the read terminal effect control data (step S513), and ends this operation.

It is possible to reliably link with event effects such as switching to 300-led effects or prohibiting use.

  In addition, since the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment acquires and stores in advance the terminal presentation control data that defines the presentation mode in the penlight 100, while eliminating the need for complicated operations by the user during the event, The terminal effect control data for controlling the effect mode is accurately obtained, and the effect mode can be reliably executed even during the event, and the user can be surely participated in the event, so the user participates. You can enhance the sense of unity in the event through the production.

  And event production system 10 of this embodiment can prevent unreception by various problems, such as a communication failure, a transmission error, or a reception error, by receiving terminal production control data repeatedly in penlight 100. Therefore, it is possible to accurately receive an instruction from the master station and reliably execute the event.

  Moreover, the event presentation system 10 of this embodiment can synchronize the penlight 100, the repeater 200, and the control apparatus 300, and synchronizes the timing which performs the terminal presentation control data in the penlight 100 with the control apparatus 300. As a result, the production of the event and the production executed by the own machine can be reliably linked.

  Moreover, since the event presentation system 10 of this embodiment memorize | stores the terminal presentation control data containing the presentation execution time which is continuous on time in the penlight 100, it is possible to perform the presentation of an event continuously. Thus, it is possible to execute a complicated production mode in accordance with the production of the event by performing the production performed by the own device such as matching with the music.

  Further, the event presentation system 10 of the present embodiment is such that the received terminal presentation control data is the same as the stored terminal presentation control data in the penlight 100, and the received terminal presentation control data is irrelevant to the own device. Terminal presentation control data, or when the storage control means has no storable area, the terminal presentation control data received is discarded without being stored, so that only the necessary terminal presentation control data is stored accurately. Alternatively, it is possible to reliably hold and execute unexecuted terminal effect control data.

  In the present embodiment, the penlight 100 having the light emitting unit 101 has been described as the terminal device of the present invention, but a liquid crystal monitor or other display device, or a portable music player or other sound output device may be used. The present invention can be applied to a communication terminal device having an effect unit capable of executing a predetermined effect.

  In this embodiment, the synchronization of the control device 300, the repeater 200, and each penlight 100 is established by the protocol or by the differential time, but each device acquires the absolute time provided from the outside. By doing so, synchronization may be established.
