The handle 310 is disposed on the upper button 330 and the lower button 340, which is configured on the operation unit (180 of FIG. 1). When the upper button 330 is pressed for about 2 seconds, the upper button 330 is switched to the normal mode and the rhythm beat mode. In other words, when the upper button 330 is pressed for about 2 seconds, the mode is switched from the normal mode to the rhythm beat mode. In this state, when the upper button 330 is pressed again for about two seconds, the rhythm beat mode is switched to the searchlight mode.

On the other hand, when the upper button 330 is pressed for about 5 seconds, the power ON / OFF (Power ON / OFF) is selectively executed. In other words, when the upper button 330 is first pressed for about 5 seconds, the power is turned on, and when the upper button 330 is pressed for about 5 seconds, the power is turned off.

The lower button 340 is used to switch the color mode from the normal mode. In other words, whenever the lower button 340 is pressed in the normal mode, the color is Red-> Blue-> Green-> Orange. And so on. Of course, the lower button 340 may also be used in the rhythm beat mode. In other words, when the lower button 340 is pressed in the rhythm beat mode, the sensitivity of the sensor (160 in FIG. 1) is switched to the high / medium / low level. That is, it may be switched in the order of being pressed continuously, or may be switched according to the number of times of being pressed continuously.

In addition, when the lower button 340 is pressed for about 3 seconds or more in the normal mode or the rhythm beat mode, the search light (190 in FIG. 1) is turned on / off. In other words, the search light 190 is turned on when the lower button 340 is pressed once for about 3 seconds in the normal mode or the rhythm beat mode.

Normal mode, on the other hand, writes in a single color (eg, Red, Yellow, White, Blue, Green, etc.). Briefly pressing the lower button 340 in the normal mode, the color mode is switched. In addition, by linking with the app 220, the app 220 can be converted to 256 colors, the brightness can be adjusted. In addition, three lighting schemes in which the color is continuously changed are possible. For example, for a period of time, lighting of Red + Yellow + Blue is possible. Or, for example, for a certain time, you can write in the order of Red-> Yellow-> Blue.

5 is a front view of the light stick 300 showing a rhythm beat mode state according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, the rhythm beat mode is a mode in which light is flickered according to the music sound by detecting a signal of a music sound heard from the surroundings in real time through the sensor 160. When the upper button 330 of FIG. 3 is pressed for about 2 seconds, the normal button may be switched from the normal mode to the rhythm beat mode.

In other words, the sound wave signal of the speaker obtained from the surrounding situation is obtained through the sensor 160, and the magnitude (intensity) of the sound wave signal is calculated to be at a level higher than or equal to the threshold value from the obtained sound wave signal. The first to nth light emitting lamps 140-1 to 140-n of the light emitting block 140 are turned on in correspondence with the calculated sound wave signal.

In other words, the light is sequentially turned on in accordance with the arrival order of the sound wave signals. That is, when the performance attendees are positioned facing the speaker, the distance from the speaker may vary. Therefore, since the sound of the speaker also arrives with a time difference, the first to nth luminous lamps 140-1 to 140-n of the portable light emitting device 100 at the corresponding position are turned on according to the arrival time. Of course, all of them may be turned on, but only a light emitting lamp corresponding to some colors may be turned on.

Further, the first to nth light emitting lamps 140-1 to 140-of the portable light emitting device 100 may be adjusted based on left and right direction information and / or depth direction information based on the speaker by adjusting the volume of the left and right channels with respect to the speaker. n) may be turned on.

In addition, when the lower button 340 of FIG. 3 is briefly pressed in the rhythm beat mode, the sensitivity of the sensor 160 is switched to the high / medium / low level. Therefore, it is possible to select and use an appropriate sensitivity level according to the loudness of the use environment.

In addition, the app 220 installed in the mobile communication terminal 210 may be switched to the rhythm beat mode, and the sensitivity of the sensor 160 may be adjusted up / down. In other words, app integration is possible.

Referring to FIG. 9, the controller 110 of FIG. 1 determines whether one of the normal mode, the rhythm beat mode, and the search write mode is selected by the user in the standby mode (steps S910 and S920).

If the normal mode is selected in step S920, color conversion is performed (steps S930 and S931).

In contrast, when the rhythm beat mode is selected in step S920, sensing of the surrounding environment is performed through the sensor (160 in FIG. 1) to generate the surrounding environment information (steps S940 and S941).

The controller 110 calculates the magnitude (or intensity) of the sound wave signal of the speaker among the surrounding environment information to adjust the flicker of the light output of the light emitting blocks 140-1 to 140-n of the light emitting block 140. (Steps S943, S945).

On the other hand, if the search light mode is selected in step S920, the controller 110 performs a light output for the logo through the search light 190 (steps S950, S951).
