Abstract

Disclosed is a method for controlling a plurality of wireless lighting devices. In an example embodiment of the present disclosure, the method includes the steps of: acquiring coordinate information having the plurality of wireless lighting devices mapped to coordinate values of a coordinate system; generating lighting control information indicating a response of at least one of the plurality of wireless lighting devices to produce a lighting shape of the coordinate system; and transmitting the lighting control information, wherein the lighting control information includes response information and function information, the response information indicates a lighting response of the wireless lighting device, and the function information indicates a response or non-response of the at least one wireless lighting device based on the coordinate values.

Claims (26)

1. A method for controlling a plurality of wireless lighting devices, the method comprising the steps of:

acquiring coordinate information having the plurality of wireless lighting devices mapped to coordinate values of a coordinate system;

generating lighting control information to produce a lighting shape of the coordinate system; and

transmitting the lighting control information,

wherein the lighting control information includes response information and function information, the response information indicates a lighting color of the wireless lighting device in case of responding, and the function information indicates the lighting shape and whether or not the at least one wireless lighting device responds, and

wherein the lighting control information is broadcasted to the plurality of the wireless lighting devices and whether to respond to the lighting control information is determined by the plurality of the wireless lighting devices by applying the coordinate values to the function information respectively, and

wherein the function information includes function indicator information which indicates at least one function representing basic lighting shape of the plurality of wireless lighting devices and shape variation information which indicates variation of the basic lighting shape by at least one parameter or index relating to the at least one function.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the shape variation information includes at least one of function parameter information, region index information and region parameter information, the function parameter information indicates a parameter value of the function, the region index information indicates an interpretation mode of the function, and the region parameter information indicates scaling of the function.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the function information includes a specific value, the lighting control information indicates entire responses of the plurality of wireless lighting devices, regardless of the coordinate values.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the function indicator information includes at least one of function index information representing an index of at least one function of a plurality of pre-stored functions or text function information providing a description of the at least one function.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of wireless lighting devices are mapped to the coordinate values of the coordinate system based on a seat number of a venue, respectively.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the lighting control information further includes code information, and the code information identifies product codes of the wireless lighting devices.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the lighting information additionally indicates at least one of acoustic response information and haptic response information of the wireless lighting devices selectively.

8. A controlling device for a plurality of wireless lighting devices, the controlling device comprising:

a memory storing data;

a communication unit performing communication with an external device; and

a processor connected to the memory and the communication unit and operating the controlling device,

wherein the processor acquires coordinate information having the plurality of wireless lighting devices mapped to coordinate values of a coordinate system, generates lighting control information to produce a lighting shape of the coordinate system, and transmits the lighting control information, and wherein the lighting control information includes response information and function information, the response information indicates a lighting color of the wireless lighting device in case of responding, and the function information indicates the lighting shape and whether or not the at least one wireless lighting device responds, and

wherein the lighting control information is broadcasted to the plurality of the wireless lighting devices and whether to respond to the lighting control information is determined by the plurality of the wireless lighting devices by applying the coordinate values to the function information respectively, and

wherein the function information includes function indicator information which indicates at least one function representing basic lighting shape of the plurality of wireless lighting devices and shape variation information which indicates variation of the basic lighting shape by at least one parameter or index relating to the at least one function.

9. The controlling device of claim 8 , wherein the shape variation information includes at least one of function parameter information, region index information and region parameter information, the function parameter information indicates a parameter value of the function, the region index information indicates an interpretation mode of the function, and the region parameter information indicates scaling of the function.

10. The controlling device of claim 8 , wherein when the function information includes a specific value, the lighting control information indicates entire responses of the plurality of wireless lighting devices, regardless of the coordinate values.

11. The controlling device of claim 8 , wherein the function indicator information includes at least one of function index information representing an index of at least one function of a plurality of pre-stored functions or text function information providing a description of the at least one function.

12. The controlling device of claim 8 , wherein the plurality of wireless lighting devices are mapped to the coordinate values of the coordinate system based on a seat number of a venue, respectively.

13. The controlling device of claim 8 , wherein the lighting control information further includes code information, and the code information identifies product codes of the wireless lighting devices.

14. The controlling device of claim 8 , wherein the lighting information additionally indicates at least one of acoustic response information and haptic response information of the wireless lighting devices selectively.
