Abstract

A plurality of lighting devices and a method for integrated control of the plurality of lighting devices according to an embodiment of the present invention, as a method for integrated control of a plurality of lighting devices by a directing application executed by at least one processor of a director terminal, comprises transmitting a default control signal instructing execution, suspension, or termination of a light emission pattern based on a basic library stored in a lighting device to a plurality of lighting devices; and implementing integrated lighting control performance directing according to the transmitted default control signal, wherein the integrated lighting control performance operates each of the plurality of lighting devices collectively in a predetermined light emission pattern to produce a specific light emission pattern as a whole.

Claims (28)

1. A method for integrated control of a plurality of lighting devices by a directing application, the method comprising:

transmitting a combined control signal to a plurality of lighting devices, wherein the combined control signal comprises a default control signal and a custom control signal; and

implementing an integrated lighting control performance according to the transmitted combined control signal,

wherein the default control signal is to instruct execution, suspension, or termination of a light emission pattern based on a basic library stored in at least one lighting device among the plurality of lighting devices,

wherein the basic library is a default library stored in firmware of the at least one lighting device among the plurality of lighting devices by default and operates based on the default control signal, and

wherein the integrated lighting control performance is to make each of the plurality of lighting devices operate collectively in a predetermined light emission pattern to produce a specific light emission pattern as a whole.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing an initial setting for at least part of the plurality of lighting devices.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the initial setting comprises an event registration process that defines a control protocol for controlling the lighting device and a pairing process that stores performance preparation data into the lighting device.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the performance preparation data comprises at least one of a library for setting a specific emission pattern for the lighting device and a scenario for setting a specific emission pattern for the lighting device for a predetermined period.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

transmitting the combined control signal with the custom control signal to a setting-type lighting device among the plurality of lighting devices and

implementing an integrated lighting control performance according to the transmitted custom control signal,

wherein the custom control signal is to instruct execution, suspension, or termination of a light emission pattern based on the performance preparation data stored in the setting-type lighting device, and

wherein the setting-type lighting device is the part of the plurality of lighting devices that has completed the initial setting.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the integrated lighting control performance according to the combined control signal comprises:

determining whether the setting-type lighting device receives the combined control signal; and

applying the custom control signal included in the combined control signal to the setting-type lighting device first if the setting-type lighting device receives the combined control signal.

7. A lighting device comprising:

at least one storage unit for storing a basic library, wherein the basic library is a default library stored in firmware of the lighting device by default and operates based on a default control signal;

at least one communication unit;

at least one light source unit; and

at least one processor, wherein the processor is configured to:

receive performance preparation data through the communication unit;

store the received performance preparation data in the storage unit;

receive a combined control signal through the communication unit, wherein the combined control signal comprises the default control signal and a custom control signal;

read out at least one of a library or a scenario corresponding to the received combined control signal from the basic library or the performance preparation data stored in the storage unit, wherein a scenario is preset data to operate the lighting device in a specific emission pattern for a predetermined period; and

execute a light emission operation according to at least one of the read-out library and scenario by controlling the light source unit.
