Description

Lighting control system and method supporting multiple modes {SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING LIGHTING SUPPORTING MULTIPLE MODES}

This disclosure relates to lighting control systems and methods. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to lighting control systems and methods that support multiple modes.

In general, a lighting device refers to a light-emitting device that achieves the purpose of lighting by reflecting, refracting, and transmitting light from a light source. Lighting devices can be classified according to light distribution into indirect lighting devices, semi-indirect lighting devices, diffuse lighting devices, semi-direct lighting devices, and direct lighting devices.

Due to technological advancements, lighting devices are being used for various purposes. For example, lighting devices are used to create a media facade. A media facade refers to implementing media functions by installing lighting devices on the exterior walls of a building.

As another example, lighting devices are sometimes used as small cheering tools in sports games or concerts held in environments below a certain level of illumination. However, in this environment, it is difficult to create a systematic lighting pattern or shape because a plurality of lighting fixtures are individually controlled. Additionally, it is not easy to achieve the desired cheering effect just by using the light source placed in the lighting device.

Therefore, in order to specifically solve the above problems, there is a demand for the introduction of a method that can control multiple lighting devices in batches and produce various performances in performance halls such as sports games or concerts through such control. .

In addition, by providing various performance production effects performed at the performance venue to audiences in other places (i.e., remote locations) other than the performance venue, not only the audience at the actual performance site but also the audience who were not present at the performance venue can experience the same effects as the actual performance. We need a way to feel the same experience. In particular, it is necessary to provide an environment in which remote audiences can use cheering tools while watching the performance from the audience seats in the performance hall to provide a cheering effect by controlling the cheering tools held by remote audiences in conjunction with the cheering tools of the performance hall. there is.

Hereinafter, the operating principle and embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the attached drawings.

1 and 2 are diagrams showing the network structure of a lighting control system supporting multiple modes according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the lighting control system 10 supporting multiple modes according to an embodiment of the present disclosure links the performance hall (A) and the remote location (B) to control at least one cheering light carried by the audience. It can be implemented so that the devices 400 can be controlled simultaneously. At this time, there may be multiple performance halls (A) and remote locations (B), and the separation distance and number thereof are not limited.

At this time, the performance hall (A) refers to a performance venue such as a sports stadium or a concert hall, and may mean a place where performances such as actual sports games or concerts are performed (progressed). Audiences who wish to watch the actual performance enter the performance hall (A) with their own cheering lighting devices 400 and can sit in their respective seats within the performance hall (A) or be located in a designated area.

Meanwhile, a remote location (B) refers to a place other than the performance hall (A), and may be a place that implements the same performance production effect as the performance hall (A) in a place other than the performance hall (A) where the actual performance is being performed. . For example, the remote location (B) may be a public place where a large number of people can gather, such as a theater, or a private space or small space such as a house. At this time, it is desirable that performance data identical to the actual performance performed at the performance hall (A) be transmitted in real time from the performance hall (A) to the remote location (B). However, it is not limited to this, and various recording media such as CD, DVD, HD-DVD, Blueray DISC, as well as physical media such as various flash memories such as SD (Secure Digital) memory card, memory stick, or MMC (Multi-Media Card) The actual performance data of the performance hall (A) can be checked from a remote location (B) through a storage medium (not shown). This performance data may refer to either live performance data to provide a live performance in real time or performance live recording data that captures the live performance, and the live performance data and live performance filming data are all forms related to the live performance, respectively. Data may include, for example, video, voice, image, or text.

Specifically, the live performance data is streamed and played in real time through an application pre-installed on the smart device 300 or an online video service such as YouTube, and the live performance is confirmed at a remote location (B) in the same way as at the performance hall (A). In addition, the live performance recording data can be streamed or downloaded and played through an application pre-installed on the smart device 300 or an online video providing service such as YouTube, so that the live performance can be confirmed from a remote location (B).

At a remote location (B), audiences who wish to receive the same performance scene and performance production effects as the actual performance performed at the performance venue (A) may have their own cheering lighting device (400).

That is, the lighting control system 10 supporting multiple modes according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes lighting devices 400 for cheering on audiences in the performance hall (A), and lighting devices for cheering on audiences in a remote location (B). The fields 400 can be linked and controlled together at the same time.

However, for convenience of explanation, the identification numbers of the same components provided at the performance venue (A) and the remote location (B) are all written the same.

Specifically, the lighting control system 10 supporting multiple modes according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a server 100, a master device 200, a smart device 300, and at least one cheering lighting device 400. may include. At this time, the master device 200, the smart device 300, and at least one cheering lighting device 400 are individually provided at each performance venue (A) and/or remote location (B).

The server 100 provides performance information to the smart device 300 based on the performance, and provides a signal for controlling at least one cheering lighting device 400 according to the flow of the performance (i.e., the playback section of the performance). A wireless control signal is generated and provided to the master device 400. At this time, the performance information includes at least one of schedule information, location information, performance venue information, organizer (Agency) information, performer (Artist) information, provided service information, image information, group information, control information, and performance data for the performance. do. In addition, the wireless control signal and control information are configured to enable group control, and as an example, the packet structure of the wireless control signal can be shown as in <Table 1> below.

As described above, the wireless control signal uses CRC16bit (2Byte) as a fixed packet length and can be transmitted using the 2.4GHz ISM band.

Additionally, the packet of the wireless control signal may support a coordinate system number such as xy for function expansion. In this way, the calculation value according to the command can be transmitted.

As an example, the group information (group allocation information) provided to each cheering lighting device may introduce and apply a virtual coordinate system to the entire audience in the performance hall, thereby defining the entire audience as a specific coordinate range. One auditorium seat may have a specific xy coordinate value, or a plurality of adjacent auditorium seats may have the same xy coordinate value. Additionally, the location of the audience seats can be specified by introducing a coordinate system other than the commonly used xy coordinate system. At this time, the group information provided to each cheering light-emitting device may be stored in advance before the performance, and if part or all of this group information is recorded as coordinate information, a wireless control signal transmitted in real time from the performance site (performance hall) In order to specify a cheering lighting device that emits light in a specific color, based on one or more specific coordinate values or a specific coordinate range, the cheering lighting device within the corresponding coordinate value range can be made to emit light in a specific color. In this case, the cheering lighting device receives a wireless control signal during the performance or the performance video is played, determines whether it is included in specific group information based on the coordinate value to which it belongs, and makes appropriate adjustments accordingly. Can emit color. If group information according to a coordinate system set for the entire audience of the performance hall (actual performance hall or virtual performance hall) is stored in advance in the cheering lighting device, an impromptu audience lighting scene may be possible with only a small amount of data transmission. That is, specific coordinates It is possible to create variable audience lighting by generating or modifying a wireless control signal and broadcasting it so that only the cheering lighting devices in the range emit light in a predetermined color.

For example, the entire audience seat of a performance hall (real or virtual performance hall) is defined in the xy coordinate system, and each cheering lighting device is assigned a predetermined xy coordinate in the production section of a specific performance (playback section of the performance) in advance. In this case, when implementing the performance production section or the performance playback section in the process of performing the performance or playing the performance video, a specific coordinate range (ex. {10, 10} to {20, 15}) is displayed in red (255, When a wireless control signal set to emit light (0, 0) is transmitted, the plurality of cheering lighting devices that received it are in the range from {10, 10} to {20, 15} based on the coordinate information given to them. Each person can determine whether they belong, and if they fall into this category, they can emit red light.

To this end, the master device 200 may create a lighting map to express the production shape or support a user tool for creating a lighting map. A lighting map is a rendering map that contains the number of all possible rendering cases that can be expressed with at least one rendering object. The director of a performance can create a dynamic effect by selectively emitting light from a plurality of light-emitting devices located in the auditorium of the performance hall using at least part of the lighting map. This lighting map may include a plurality of partial objects, and each partial object may form one presentation object or form a part of one presentation object. In other words, a presentation object may include at least one partial object. Additionally, the lighting map may be generated differently depending on the size, shape, number of seats, performance type (including on-site performance and non-face-to-face online performance), and type of performance (concert, sports game, etc.) of the audience. The director can create a lighting map that matches the type of each performance through the master device 200.

According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the audience seating can be interpreted as a coordinate space of the x-axis and y-axis. For example, 20 audience seats horizontally and 20 audience seats vertically, for a total of 400 seats, can be set as unit objects for producing one scene (SCENE). However, the technical idea of the present disclosure is not limited to the disclosed numbers and can be transformed into unit objects with various horizontal and vertical values.

According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a presentation object may include an object origin (OO), and the location of the object origin (OO) in coordinate space may be referred to as a reference coordinate.

The object origin (OO) can be set in advance or defined as a specific location. For example, the object origin may be set or defined as a characteristic part of the presentation object, the midpoint of the outline of the presentation object, the center of mass (COM) of the presentation object, etc. For example, if the object origin for a specific presentation object has already been set, the server 100 may omit the operation of newly setting the object origin for the same presentation object.

For example, the center coordinate of the lighting map of the production shape may be set to the object origin (OO) (absolute coordinate method). However, it is not limited to this and the positions of various presentation shapes can be set and changed as the object origin (OO). The object origin (OO) may be defined in advance, and the master device 200 and the cheering lighting device 400 may share the same object origin defined for each presentation shape.

According to the absolute coordinate method as an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when transmitting reference coordinates, which are coordinate information of the object origin (OO) of an object, through a control packet, the reference coordinates may be the absolute object origin (OO). For example, when the reference coordinates of the first object are (10, 10), the reference coordinates of the second object are (30, 10), the reference coordinates of the third object are (50, 10), and the reference coordinates of the fourth object are (260, 10). can be assumed. Among these, in order to transmit values containing 260 without problems, 1 byte (8 bits) with an expression range of 0 to 255 cannot be used, and 2 bytes (16 bits) with a data expression range greater than that (0 to 65535) must be used. Must use. In other words, there is a case where 2 bytes of coordinate data space is allocated to the packet, but this is not a problem if the packet size is sufficient. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the object origin (OO) is determined in advance according to the presentation shape. It can be determined, or it can be set and stored under the control of the master device 200 (relative coordinate method). The object origin (OO) can be changed under the control of the master device 200. When the object origin changes, the cheering lighting device 400 can maintain synchronization with the master device 200 by updating coordinate information according to the changed standard.

Meanwhile, the detailed configuration of the payload in <Table 1> above can be shown as <Table 2> below as an example.

location payload[0] payload[1] payload[2] payload[3] payload[4] payload[5] payload[6] payload[7] payload[8] payload[9] designation Command Agency ID Artist ID Group A top Group A lower level Group B top Group B lower RED GREEN BLUE size 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte 1Byte representative value

Basically, the condition for operation is that the Agency ID and Artist ID must match the values pre-stored in the light stick. As an exception, if you enter 0x00 (decimal 0) in each ID, it becomes a condition for unconditional operation even if they do not match. If the command value is not supported by the lightstick firmware, the lightstick maintains the previously received command or existing operation.

Meanwhile, group A and group B have a maximum of 16 bits (2 bytes), and in the case of group control, one or more of the group A and group B values in the group control packet are input into the application according to the command and compared with the value stored in the light stick. If there is a match, the action is determined (i.e. group control). Meanwhile, depending on the command (the production scene storage number may be indicated), only group A values may be recognized and group B values may become Don’t Care, or only group B may be recognized and group A values may become Don’t Care.

If the function is developed according to the packet specifications, the specific command value can be operated for purposes such as an exact match for the group A value, a certain range for the group B value, or above or below (less than, greater than) the group B value.

Group A Upper, Group A Lower, Group B Upper, and Group B Lower just write down representative functions, and can operate as fields within a packet that transmit values used to process commands, that is, transmitting condition variables.

Meanwhile, group information and seat information are mapped for each performance stage according to the flow of the performance. At this time, the group information may be set by dividing at least one cheering lighting device into a plurality of groups. Additionally, a plurality of light-emitting elements provided in each cheering lighting device can also be divided into a plurality of groups and set. In this case, when mapping group information and seat information for each performance stage, device group information that groups a plurality of light-emitting devices is further mapped. Accordingly, not only can at least one cheering lighting device be grouped and controlled based on the seat, but also a plurality of light emitting elements provided in each cheering lighting device can also be grouped and controlled.

Meanwhile, the master device 200 broadcasts this wireless control signal while performance data (live performance data or live performance filming data) is provided. This wireless control signal may be generated based on control information included in the performance information in a form for controlling at least one cheering lighting device 400 through wireless communication.

In addition, the smart device 300 is a terminal of a user who wishes to receive various services related to the performance, and an application that provides the various services may be installed, and the user may perform membership registration and/or payment procedures based on the installed application. By performing , you can be granted the authority to receive the various services.

Specifically, the user runs the application pre-installed on the smart device 300 and then manually enters the information included in the ticket or automatically recognizes it based on the electronic code information and responds to the performance from the server 100. Receive performance information. Afterwards, the smart device 300 performs connection by mapping at least one cheering lighting device to the performance information. At this time, the smart device 300 individually controls at least one cheering lighting device (400-1, 400-2, ..., 400-n) located in the performance hall (A) and/or remote location (B). Can be controlled simultaneously.

Meanwhile, when the smart device 300 performs the connection, it checks whether a connection history exists based on the light stick information of each of the selected at least one cheering lighting device and the previously stored light stick information, and as a result of the confirmation, the connection is made. Connection to a cheering lighting device that has a history can be performed preferentially.

Here, the pre-stored cheering stick information is for each of at least one cheering lighting device that has a history of being connected to the smart device 300. In addition, the lightstick information includes at least the name, nickname, agency information, artist information, MAC address, broadcasting name, broadcasting description, broadcasting message, serial number, hardware version information, and firmware version information for the cheering lighting device. It can contain one.

On the other hand, when the connection between the smart device 300 and at least one cheering lighting device is completed and the connected at least one cheering lighting device is registered on the application, the cheering stick information is added to the previously stored cheering stick information, Update the previously saved light stick information.

Meanwhile, one of at least one piece of information included in the light stick information may be set as the ID information of the corresponding cheering lighting device. In this case, when the smart device 300 checks whether a connection history exists, the smart device 300 stores the cheering stick information. In the pole information, check whether there is a cheering lighting device with ID information that matches the ID information of the cheering lighting device, and if a cheering lighting device with the matching ID information is confirmed, the connection history exists. It is determined that this is the case, and reconnection is performed based on the ID information of the confirmed cheering lighting device. In addition, if a cheering lighting device with the matching ID information is not confirmed, it is determined that there is no connection history, that is, it is a new connection, and the connection is performed based on the ID information of the cheering lighting device. do.

This smart device 300 is an electronic device with a video playback function and a remote communication function, for example, a smartphone, tablet, wearable device, desktop PC, laptop PC, netbook computer, HMD (head mounted display), PAD. It may be a smart device that can be carried by an individual, such as personal digital assistants, virtual reality (VR) devices, smart cars, etc., or may include or be linked to some of the components of such smart devices. It can be composed of various forms. That is, the smart device 300 may include a display device capable of outputting performance data, and may receive and process performance data and control information (control data) according to the performance data through a physical storage medium. For example, the smart device 300 supports various recording media such as CD, DVD, HD-DVD, and Blueray DISC, as well as various flash memories such as SD (Secure Digital) memory card, memory stick, or MMC (Multi-Media Card). Performance data and control information (control data) according to the performance data can be received through a physical storage medium including the like. In this way, when performance data is checked at a remote location (B) using a physical storage medium, audiences located at a remote location (B) can have the same experience as watching a performance at a performance hall regardless of time and place. In addition, the smart device 300 can be connected to a separate playback device (not shown) (eg, beam projector, monitor, TV, etc.) to output performance data.

If the smart device 300 is comprised of a smartphone among smart devices, performance data is played through the smartphone screen and control information is analyzed and confirmed using an application program (application program or application) to communicate through wired or wireless communication. By transmitting in this way, at least one cheering lighting device 400 owned by each audience member in the performance hall (A) or remote location (B) can be controlled. At this time, the application program (application) may be downloaded through the server 100 or other service providing servers through wireless communication.

In explaining the present disclosure, the master device 200 and the smart device 300 are shown one by one, but this is only for convenience of explanation, and the master device 200 and the smart device 300 are used in one performance hall (A ) or a plurality of them may be provided at a remote location (B), and the number is not limited. If the remote location (B) is a public place where a large number of audiences are located (or when a large number of audiences are located in a private space), a plurality of smart devices are connected to a plurality of cheering lighting devices (400-1, 400-2). , ..., 400-n) can be connected one-to-one and controlled individually, or one smart device can be connected one-to-one with multiple cheering lighting devices (400-1, 400-2, ..., 400-n). can be connected and controlled individually or simultaneously.

At this time, when the smart device 300 is set to be connected on a one-to-one basis, the smart device 300 compares the wireless field strength (RSSI) values of each of at least one cheering lighting device 400 and compares the cheering lighting device with the largest wireless field strength value. Perform the connection. In addition, when the smart device 300 is set to connect one to many, the wireless electric field strength value of each of the at least one cheering lighting device is compared with a preset threshold value and at least one device has a wireless electric field strength value greater than the preset threshold value. Connect to the cheering lighting device.

On the other hand, the master device 200 may not be separately provided, and any one of a plurality of smart devices may be designated (set) as the master device to perform its function, and the server 100 may be directly connected through wired or wireless communication. It is also possible to transmit a wireless control signal.

Meanwhile, at least one cheering lighting device 400 is a small cheering tool (e.g., cheering stick) carried by an audience (user) located at the performance venue (A) or a remote location (B), and is connected to the smart device 300. It is connected to and controls operation in either the first mode or the second mode.

At this time, the first mode is a mode for control based on a personal area network (PAN), and is divided into a state waiting to participate in the personal area network or a state participating in the personal area network, and the second mode is a mode for control based on a branching wireless control method, and corresponds to a performance control mode for individually controlling at least one cheering lighting device based on control data or wireless control signals synchronized with the performance data. .

At this time, in order to convert the operation mode from the first mode to the second mode, or to convert the operation mode from the second mode to the first mode, by inputting a preset operation signal through at least one cheering lighting device 400. Conversion can be performed. At this time, the preset operation signal may be a rule that is basically stored in each of the at least one cheering lighting device 400, or may be one that the user sets and stores according to his or her convenience. For example, the preset manipulation signal may be at least one of a method of touching a button provided on the cheering lighting device, a method of performing a gesture, and a method of inputting a voice.

Specifically, when controlling the operation in the operation mode of the first mode, at least one cheering lighting device 400 controls the operation based on a pre-stored control pattern and controls the operation in the operation mode of the second mode. At the time, at least one cheering lighting device 400 controls its operation based on a wireless control signal or control information included in the performance information (control data synchronized to the performance data). Here, the pre-stored control pattern may be pre-stored in each of at least one cheering lighting device 400.

In other words, the wireless control signal provides control data in real time to control at least one cheering lighting device 400 located at the performance hall (A) where the performance is held or at a remote location (B) where the performance data is streamed. The goal is to make it happen. Meanwhile, the control information included in the performance information is provided to at least one cheering lighting device 400 located at the performance venue (A) where the performance is held or at a remote location (B) where the performance data is streamed, when the performance information is provided. The performance data included in the performance information and the control data synchronized with the performance data are stored, and while streaming or downloading the performance data, control corresponding to the current playback section is performed based on the previously stored control data.

As a result, control of at least one of light emission, vibration and sound of at least one cheering lighting device 400, that is, each of the cheering lighting devices 400-1, 400-2, ..., 400-n is performed. It can be performed to realize various types of performance production effects.

This at least one cheering lighting device 400 can be equipped with RGB or RGBW-based LEDs and can be controlled only with RGB (Red, Green, Blue) values. If the RGB values are all at their maximum, the Red, Green, and Blue LEDs turn off, and only the White LED emits light. As a result, it is possible to reduce power consumption and enable more reliable expression.

Generally, LEDs controlled by PWM are used, but LEDs that operate by receiving 1-wire or 2-wire communication, called smart LEDs, can also be installed.

When each cheering lighting device 400 is equipped with a plurality of LEDs, that is, a plurality of light-emitting elements, the control pattern for each light-emitting element to operate individually is stored in the cheering lighting device, and is operated by pressing a button. It can be changed and operated every time a signal is input.

In addition, in this case, when a specific command or pattern value is instructed wirelessly, it operates according to the control pattern stored in the cheering lighting device, but since there are a plurality of light-emitting devices, the operation pattern is sent as one control packet to each light-emitting device. If it is not possible to completely indicate, a number is assigned to each packet, the first packet is in the form of an all-emitting LED, and then the emission of the LEDs can be controlled by shifting in the order in which they are received. If the desired effect cannot be achieved by shifting alone, the data can be split into packets, then a command packet to operate optimally can be sent, and the data accumulated up to this point can be emitted at once to indicate pattern operation. This can equally be applied to group control.

As briefly described above, the control information is provided in synchronization with the performance data and may include control data synchronized in response to the current playback section of the performance data. Accordingly, when performance data is streamed or downloaded and played through the smart device 300, control of at least one cheering lighting device 400 connected to the smart device 300 is performed based on control data synchronized with the performance data. can be performed.

In one embodiment, the control data synchronized with the performance data is so that it is synchronized with the performance data using time code information generated based on the performance data or time code information generated based on the performance at the performance venue (A). It may be configured by mapping time code information to . That is, using time code information, performance data at the performance venue (A) or a remote location (B) and at least one cheering lighting device 400 located at the performance venue (A) or a remote location (B) can be synchronized with each other. Accordingly, in this disclosure, the time code information is described as being generated based on performance data or a performance at the performance hall (A), but the time code information is not limited to this. For example, the time code information mapped to the synchronized control data corresponding to the current playback section of the performance data is provided by at least one of the server 100, the master device 200, the smart device, and at least one cheering lighting device 400. It can be caused by one thing. In other words, since the time code information is included in the control data corresponding to the performance data to be transmitted to the remote location (B), it may be shared and controlled by various devices located in the remote location (B) that can control the control data.

Moreover, in order to solve the playback delay phenomenon caused by intentional delayed broadcasting or technical limitations of long-distance transmission, at least one cheering lighting device 400 is provided at the performance venue A according to the performance data. When transmitting performance data to a remote location (B), transmit the control data together or separately, but include time code information in the control data to control the time code information included in the performance data when playing the performance data from a remote location (B). By mapping the data, the control data and performance data of at least one cheering lighting device 400 located in a remote location can be synchronized. Accordingly, the audience in the remote location (B) can enjoy a more realistic performance by matching the performance data and at least one cheering lighting device 400 hovering over the remote location (B). In addition, even when the actual performance data is played through physical storage media such as CD, DVD, HD-DVD, Blueray DISC, etc., or through online video provision services such as YouTube, the performance is played using time code information. The sense of immersion can be maximized by matching the data and the control data of the cheering lighting device.

To this end, the smart device 300 extracts time code information and mapped control data corresponding to the current playback section of the performance data from control data synchronized with the performance data, and at least one cheering lighting device (400) located remotely. ) can be provided to.

In other words, at least one cheering lighting device 400 located in the performance hall (A) and the remote location (B) is controlled based on control data and functions to produce various types of performance production effects in real time or in synchronization. can be performed.

Figure 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a performance production effect produced on the audience seats of a performance hall according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 3, the lighting control system 10 supporting multiple modes is used to implement a performance production effect using at least one cheering lighting device 400 located corresponding to each seat in the performance hall (A). Performance information and wireless control signals can be generated.

At this time, the performance information can be generated by the server 100, and the wireless control signal can be generated by the server 100 or the master device 200 based on the performance information. However, for convenience of explanation, the following description will be limited to generating a wireless control signal in the server 100.

The server 100 creates a production scene to be produced using at least one cheering lighting device 400 located at the performer A during the performance time held at the performance hall A, and at this time, the production scene is performed. Accordingly, each production scene can be configured for each performance stage. For example, in the first performance production section (e.g., first time), a first production scene (e.g., first scene) is created, and in the second performance production section (e.g., second time), a second production scene (e.g., second time) is created. Example: a second scene) can be created.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the audience seats in the performance hall (A) are configured, in the first performance production section, a first production scene displayed in different luminous colors for each seat of the audience along with specific text as in FIG. 3 can be created. You can. In addition, in the second performance production section, a second production scene that is different from the first production scene, for example, may be created with a specific shape or pattern.

The server 100 may group the audience seats in the performance hall (A) into a plurality of groups based on each production scene created for each performance production section and generate group information for each of the grouped plurality groups. For example, if there are a plurality of group units that can be grouped into a similar or identical luminous form to the first production scene to be produced in the first performance production section, the audience seats in the performance hall (A) are divided into a plurality of areas corresponding to the group units. You can divide it and create each divided area into each group. In other words, the first production scene of the first performance production section may include a plurality of groups.

Referring to FIG. 3, seats in the audience area marked with specific text are designated as a first group 310, and seats in the audience area with the same luminous color are distinguished from each other to form second to fifth groups 320, 330, and 340, respectively. , 350).

The server 100 can map information about a plurality of groups created for each performance production section (performance production scene) with seat information in the audience seats, and configure the mapped information into performance data for each performance production section. For example, the server 100 may configure performance data by mapping a plurality of group information corresponding to production information for each section, as shown in Table 1 below. Here, the group information refers to group-specific control information for controlling at least one cheering lighting device 400 for each group in response to each production scene for each performance production section. For example, control information for each group may include group assignment information (i.e., group identification information) and light emission state information set corresponding thereto. That is, at least one cheering lighting device 400 having the same group allocation information for each performance stage may include the same luminous state information.

Additionally, at least one cheering lighting device 400 having the same group allocation information may be different for each performance section. For example, the cheering lighting device 400-1 having group A allocation information in the first performance production section (first performance production scene) has group B allocation information in the second performance production section (second performance production scene). It can be set to . In other words, the cheering lighting device belonging to group A in the first performance production section (first performance production scene) and the cheering lighting device belonging to group A in the second performance production section (second performance production scene) may be different from each other. there is.

Figure 4 is a flowchart showing a lighting control method in a lighting control system supporting multiple modes according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 4, the smart device 300 executes a pre-installed application (S401), and based on this, information included in the ticket is manually entered or automatically recognized to register the ticket (S403).

For this purpose, a list of performances is provided based on the executed application, and the user can select the performance for which he or she wishes to enter the information contained in the ticket. Once a performance is selected, the information contained in the ticket is used to select the performance. You can register tickets for the selected performance.

At this time, in order to automatically recognize the information included in the ticket, the ticket may be provided with electronic code information, and the electronic code information may be, for example, at least one of a barcode, QR code, and RFID tag.

In order to complete the connection, the operation mode of each of the searched at least one cheering lighting devices 400 is converted to enter the first mode (S419), and accordingly, the smart device 300 and the searched at least one cheering lighting device 400 are converted into a first mode. When the connection between the lighting devices 400 is completed (S421), the operating mode of each of the connected cheering lighting devices 400 is converted to enter the second mode (S423). Although step S423 is shown in Figure 4 as being performed after step S421, it can be performed at any time after step S419. That is, step S423 may be performed after step S419 is performed, or may be performed at any time after step S421 is performed.

For example, when performing a connection, the smart device 300 may display guide information instructing the user to approach the cheering lighting device through an application to facilitate connection.

In addition, at least one connected cheering lighting device emits light in a color and color pattern specified by the application as the connection is completed, or emits or vibrates in a color and color pattern preset to the cheering lighting device to ensure that the current connection is correct. You can allow the user to check whether it was performed or not. If the color of the cheering lighting device guided to the smart device 300 matches the color change of the actual cheering lighting device, it is determined that the connection has been performed correctly. If it does not match, search and connect again. Perform the operation to ensure correct connection.

Meanwhile, although not shown in FIG. 4, after the connection is completed, the smart device 300 determines whether to transmit notification information by checking the status information of each of the connected at least one cheering lighting device, and according to the decision, Notification information can be sent.

For example, based on the light stick information of each of at least one connected cheering lighting device, the firmware version information is checked as status information to determine whether the firmware version needs to be updated, and as a result of the determination, it is determined that an update is necessary. An update request notification can be transmitted to at least one cheering lighting device. In addition, the remaining battery capacity of each of the connected cheering lighting devices is checked at preset intervals, and a low-battery notification is sent to at least one cheering lighting device for which the confirmed battery remaining amount is determined to be less than a preset threshold. You can.

Meanwhile, when converting the operating mode in steps S419 and S423, a guide for operations to change the operating mode may be provided on the application, and the user can convert the operating mode based on the guide.

If the operation signal to enter the second mode is not input in step S423, and the state of the first mode entered in step S419 continues, the second mode is switched when the duration is longer than a preset time. It can be set to automatically convert. Additionally, when converted to the second mode, conversion to the first mode may be restricted.

Next, at least one connected cheering lighting device 400 detects a wireless control signal according to a preset cycle (S425) and performs control depending on whether the wireless control signal is detected (S427).

However, this is only one embodiment, and the smart device 300 detects a wireless control signal and controls at least one cheering lighting device 400 connected to the smart device 300 depending on whether the wireless control signal is detected. You may.

Meanwhile, independently of performing each of the steps described above, the server 100 generates a wireless control signal for the performance while the performance is in progress or performance data is played (S416-1), and transmits the wireless control signal. After saving (S416-2), it is provided to the master device 200 (S416-3). Next, the master device 200 stores the wireless control signal (S416-4) and provides it to the smart device 300 (S416-5). Next, the smart device 300 stores the wireless control signal (S416-6), and then uses the performance information previously stored in step S415 and/or the wireless control signal stored in step S416-6 to support at least one cheering device. It can be provided as a lighting device 400 (S416-7). Here, step S416-7 is an operation performed as needed and is not an operation that must be performed necessarily. Additionally, the master device 200 broadcasts a wireless control signal after step S416-5 (S416-8). In Figure 4, step S416-8 is shown as being performed after steps S416-6 to S416-7, but it can be performed at any time after step S416-5.

Step S416 (step S416-1 to S416-84), described above, can be performed repeatedly while the performance is in progress, and the wireless control signals generated by the repeated performance are accumulated and stored along with time information for the performance. It can be stored as control information for . Accordingly, when streaming or downloading performance data for the performance is played, the control information is included in the performance information and provided to the smart device 300, so that at least one cheering lighting device connected to the smart device 300 (400) can be controlled.

Meanwhile, Figure 4 shows a case where a workstation (not shown) and a server 100 are configured as one device.
