A lighting device is disposed on an actual image of the subject area, And a portable terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet PC equipped with a data processing means for superimposing and displaying the image of the object zone on the image of the object zone so as to easily visualize and display the light design clan for the object zone.

To this end, the smart terminal 100 is provided with an illumination design app that is programmed to visualize and display an illumination design cistern that can be implemented in an actual image of the object area acquired using a photographing means such as a camera .

As shown in FIG. 1, the smart terminal 100 having the lighting design app installed therein sets the size of the unit grid for matching the target area to which the lighting device is to be installed, A grid setting unit 110 for generating a grid pattern in which the unit grid is extended in the longitudinal direction and the height direction according to the selected grid pattern, And an image activating unit 130 for superimposing and displaying the image on the display unit together with the grid pattern by activating the object zone image obtained by photographing the object zone and taking the illuminating device on the grid pattern into account, ), Adjusting the grid pattern to match the area to be illuminated on the subject area image, A grid adjustment unit 140 for arranging the illumination devices disposed on the pattern on the object zone image, a grid adjustment unit 140 for converting the object zone image into a dark night environment, And a lighting effect implementing unit (150) for visualizing the lighting design cue in a state where a lighting device is installed in the subject area and displaying the visualized lighting cue on the display means.

At this time, the smart terminal 100 on which the lighting design app is installed is not limited to simply displaying a lighting device that is lit up regardless of the size and the perspective of a target area to which the lighting device is to be installed, It is possible to visualize a lighting design cue as if it shows a demonstration form after the lighting apparatus has been installed, by showing a lighting apparatus lighting example of a form adjusted together according to the size or perspective of the object zone on the image.

Accordingly, in the present invention, as a means for matching the environment of the subject area so that the lighting device and each lighting device can be displayed in a state in which the light distribution in the lighting state is adjusted in accordance with the size or perspective of the subject area image A unit grid and a grid pattern are adopted and a grid setting unit 110 and a grid adjusting unit 140 are adopted to match the unit grid and the grid pattern to the object zone image.

After the illumination design app installed in the smart terminal is activated, the grid setting unit 110 sets the shape and size of the unit grid on the screen displayed on the display unit as shown in FIG. 5, As shown in FIG. 6, the unit grid is extended in the longitudinal direction and the height direction on the screen displayed on the display means to generate a grid pattern.

In this case, although the unit grid is set to a square of 1 m in the longitudinal direction and the height direction in FIG. 5, the size and shape of the target area or the target area or the size of the lighting equipment to be installed Accordingly, it is needless to say that the size and shape of the unit grid can be set differently.

In FIG. 6, it is shown that the environment of the subject area or the target area is an outer wall having a length of 32 m and a height of 3 m, and a plurality of unit grids are repeated in the longitudinal direction and the height direction to form a grid pattern. However, It goes without saying that the size in the longitudinal direction and the height direction can be changed depending on the environment.

In this manner, the grid setting unit 110 can generate a basic grid pattern to be matched with the target area or the target site by inputting the basic environment of the target area or the target site.

In addition, the lighting arrangement unit 120 selects a desired lighting apparatus while observing the outline and detailed specifications of the lighting apparatuses to be installed in the target area, and selects a desired lighting apparatus based on the size of the selected lighting apparatus, Respectively.
