Method for controlling a lighting system

1. A method for controlling a lighting system with an operating element and at least one color display, wherein the at least one color display can represent all colors of an RGB color space with variable intensity, the method comprising:

detecting a touch to the operating element;

altering a color of light emitted by the lighting system when the touch to the operating element is detected such that the light emitted by the lighting system traverses the RGB color space on a predetermined trajectory and the at least one color display assumes the color of the light emitted by the lighting system;

wherein the RGB color space is traversed such that the color of the light emitted by the lighting system is periodically altered between a saturated color and a white point of the RGB color space.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein an intensity of the light emitted by the lighting system is set as a preset color.

3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

setting a color temperature of white light.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the operating element is a touch sensor operable to detect a spatial alteration of the touch, and part of the predetermined trajectory in the RGB color space is traversed in accordance with the alteration.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein a larger or smaller part of the predetermined trajectory is traversed depending on a speed of an alteration of the touch.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the operating element has identified locations at which a defined color or intensity of the light is set by the operating element being touched in a punctiform manner.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the identified locations of the operating element are each identified by color displays which indicate a settable color or intensity.

8. An arrangement comprising:

at least one operating element;

a lighting system having a plurality of light-emitting diodes comprising luminous means;

at least one color display; and

at least one control device comprising at least one microprocessor;

wherein the control device is configured to control the lighting system with the at least one color display;

wherein the at least one color display is configured to represent all colors of an RGB color space with variable intensity;

wherein, when a touch to the at least one operating element is detected, a color of light emitted by the lighting system is altered such that the light emitted by the lighting system traverses the RGB color space on a predetermined trajectory and the at least one color display assumes the color of the light emitted by the lighting system; and

wherein the RGB color space is traversed such that the color of the light emitted by the lighting system is periodically altered between a saturated color and a white point of the RGB color space.

9. The arrangement according to claim 8 , wherein the lighting system comprises a plurality of RGB light-emitting diodes, wherein each light-emitting diode chip of an RGB light-emitting diode of the plurality of RGB light-emitting diodes is drivable individually.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the RGB color space is traversed in a flower pattern.

11. A method for controlling a lighting system with an operating element and at least one color display, wherein the at least one color display can represent all colors of an RGB color space with variable intensity, the method comprising:

detecting a touch to the operating element;

altering a color of light emitted by the lighting system when the touch to the operating element is detected such that the light emitted by the lighting system traverses the RGB color space on a predetermined trajectory and the at least one color display assumes the color of the light emitted by the lighting system;

wherein the RGB color space is traversed along the predetermined trajectory through the RGB color space such that the color of the light emitted by the lighting system is periodically altered between a saturated color and a white point of the RGB color space;

wherein the predetermined trajectory through the RGB color space is established in a pattern to set a hue of the light emitted from the lighting system, beginning at the saturated color, leading to the white point of the RGB color space and returning to another saturated color; and

wherein the at least one color display assumes the color of the light emitted by the lighting system.

12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the pattern is a flower pattern.
