However, in some scenarios where the trigger frequency of the light effect is required to be inconsistent with the frequency of the trigger signal, this simple single-shot triggering mechanism is difficult to meet the requirements, making it difficult to achieve diversified and personalized lighting effects.

[0020] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application, the following briefly introduces the drawings required for use in the embodiments or descriptions of the prior art. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present application. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative work.

[0022] FIG2 is a schematic diagram of a second flow chart of a lighting control method provided in an embodiment of the present application;

[0023] FIG3 is a schematic structural diagram of a lighting control device provided in an embodiment of the present application;

[0024] FIG4 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a terminal device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0025] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures and techniques are provided for purposes of illustration rather than limitation to facilitate a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present application may be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to avoid obscuring the description of the present application with unnecessary detail.

[0026] It will also be understood that the term "and / or" used in this specification and the appended claims refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0027] In addition, in the description of the present application specification and the appended claims, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used to distinguish the descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0028] References to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" in this specification mean that one or more embodiments of the present application include a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with that embodiment. Thus, phrases such as "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," and "in other embodiments" appearing in various places in this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more but not all embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. The terms "including," "comprising," "having," and their variations all mean "including but not limited to," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. "Multiple" means "two" or "more than two."

[0029] An example of the present application provides a triggering method for a lighting device, which controls the lighting effect of the lamp by detecting the rising edge or falling edge of the voltage or current signal, and the length of time that a certain level is maintained; specifically, when it is detected that the input signal jumps from a low level to a high level instantaneously, the control system of the lighting device will immediately respond and perform related actions, such as turning the light on or off; conversely, when it is detected that the input signal drops rapidly from a high level to a low level instantaneously, the control system of the lighting device will also respond and perform corresponding actions; in addition, unlike the level triggering of rising edge triggering or falling edge triggering, it requires that the input signal maintain a specific high level or low level state for a period of time before triggering the corresponding action. For example, when the high level is maintained for a period of time (such as 3 seconds), the lighting device is turned on; conversely, when the signal remains at a low level for a period of time, the lighting device is turned off.

[0030] Although the above triggering methods can respond to trigger signals in a timely manner, when the frequency of the required light effect changes is inconsistent with the frequency of the trigger signal, it is extremely difficult to implement a single action that simply relies on rising edge, falling edge, or level triggering. For example, in some advanced light shows or dynamic lighting scenes, the lights may be expected to exhibit a certain periodic or non-uniform change effect, which requires that the frequency of the light effect change is not synchronized with the trigger signal. In this case, a simple single trigger mechanism cannot meet such complex and changing light effect requirements.

[0031] Therefore, an embodiment of the present application provides a lighting control method, which configures control data of a lighting device according to user input information, where the control data includes an initial counting parameter, a preset counting cycle range, a light effect trigger condition, and a trigger time factor of a light channel of the lighting device; then a light effect trigger signal is received, and the initial counting parameter is updated according to the light effect trigger signal; if the updated initial counting parameter is within the preset counting cycle range, it is determined whether the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect trigger condition; if the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect trigger condition, the light effect is triggered according to the light effect trigger signal and the trigger time factor. In this way, the problem that existing lighting equipment cannot meet the light effect triggering requirements when the trigger frequency of the light effect is inconsistent with the frequency of the trigger signal can be effectively solved, and efficient and accurate triggering of various complex light effects can be achieved.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] As shown in FIG1 , the lighting control method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps S1 to S4:

[0034] Step S1: Configure the control data of the lighting device according to the user's input information, and then proceed to step S2.

[0035] In applications, different scenarios require different user input information. Based on this information, the control data of the lighting device can be configured to meet the application requirements of different scenarios and the user's personalized needs. User input information includes, but is not limited to, information related to the lighting device's brightness, color, color temperature, on / off status, flashing mode, gradient effect, etc.

[0036] In one embodiment, the control data includes an initial counting parameter, a preset counting cycle range, a light effect triggering condition, and a triggering time factor of a light channel of the light device.

[0037] In the application, the control data includes but is not limited to the initial counting parameters, the preset counting cycle range, the light effect triggering conditions and the triggering time factor of the light channel of the lighting device. According to the user's input information, the control data may also include the light output intensity, the light output mode, etc. This is just an example and does not constitute a limitation.

[0038] In one embodiment, the trigger time factor includes light effect trigger delay, light effect duration, and light effect end delay;

[0039] The light effect triggering delay is the time delay from when the light channel receives the light effect triggering signal to when it starts to trigger the light effect;

[0040] The light effect duration is the duration after the light channel triggers the light effect;

[0041] The light effect end delay is the time from the end of the light effect triggering of the light channel to the next reception of the light effect triggering signal.

[0042] In the application, the trigger time factors corresponding to different scenarios may be partially the same, completely the same, or completely different, and can be configured based on the user's input information. Among them, the light effect trigger delay, light effect duration, and light effect end delay can be time values ​​in milliseconds, seconds, or any other time value with time units, and there is no limitation here. The light effect trigger delay and light effect end delay can be the same or different. The light effect trigger delay and light effect end delay can also be zero at the same time, non-zero at the same time, or one of them can be zero.

[0043] In applications, by configuring the trigger time factor, you can effectively solve the problem of light effect triggering when the trigger frequency of the light effect is inconsistent with the frequency of the trigger signal. For example, when the trigger frequency of the light effect is 72 Hz (triggering 72 light effect changes per second) and the trigger signal frequency is 96 Hz (sending 96 trigger signals per second), in order to ensure that each trigger signal can accurately correspond to and trigger a light effect change, you can achieve precise triggering of the light effect by configuring the trigger time factor.

[0044] In one embodiment, the control data further includes lighting channel parameters, and the lighting channel parameters include at least one of lighting output intensity, lighting output mode, and lighting output frequency.

[0045] In the application, the light channel parameters include but are not limited to light output intensity, light output mode, and light output frequency. According to actual needs, users can also set other light channel parameters.

[0046] Step S2: Receive a light effect trigger signal, update the initial counting parameter according to the light effect trigger signal, and proceed to step S3.

[0047] In the application, after configuring the control data of the lighting equipment, you can start receiving light effect trigger signals. When the received light effect trigger information meets certain light effect trigger conditions, the light effect can be triggered.

[0048] In the application, during the data configuration process of step S1, an initial value can be configured for the initial counting parameter. The initial value can be configured to 0 or any other value, which is not limited here. Each time a light effect trigger signal is received, the initial counting parameter is updated and saved.

[0049] In application, the light effect trigger signal may be a pulse signal, or any type of signal that can be used to implement the method provided in this application, which is not limited here.

[0050] In one embodiment, step S2 specifically includes:

[0051] Each time a light effect trigger signal is received, the value of the initial counting parameter is increased by 1 and saved.

[0052] In the application, each time a light effect trigger signal is received, the initial counting parameter is added by 1 based on the current value and saved.

[0053] Step S3: If the updated initial counting parameter is within the preset counting cycle range, determine whether the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition, and enter step S4.

[0054] In application, the preset counting cycle range can be configured according to the actual needs of the user and is not limited here.

[0055] In the application, if the updated initial counting parameter is within the pre-set counting cycle range, it is necessary to determine whether the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition. If the light effect triggering condition is met, the light effect can be triggered; if the light effect triggering condition is not met, the light effect is not triggered.

[0056] Step S4: If the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition, trigger the light effect according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor.

[0057] In the application, if the updated initial counting parameters meet the light effect triggering conditions, the light effect is triggered according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor. Moreover, when other light effect triggering signals are received during the process of triggering the light effect, the light effect triggering signal is not processed. Only after the current light effect triggering process is completely completed (that is, after the light effect end delay), the received light effect triggering signal is processed accordingly.

[0058] In the application, after the light effect triggering is completed, the user can choose to end the current light effect triggering process and re-execute step S1, or return to step S2 without processing.

[0059] In one embodiment, the light effect triggering condition includes a light effect triggering condition of at least one light channel of a lighting device or a light effect triggering condition of multiple light channels of multiple lighting devices;

[0060] Correspondingly, step S4 specifically further includes:

[0061] If the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition of the at least one light channel or the target light channel among the multiple light channels, the target light channel is controlled to trigger the light effect according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor.

[0062] In applications, a lighting channel can represent not only the physical channel of a lighting device, but also a logical channel with logical functions that can achieve a certain lighting effect, or a combination of the two, without limitation here. For example, a lighting device with a five-color lamp combination physically has five independent lighting channels (one channel for each color). At the same time, the combination of lamps of different colors can form a logical channel with a clear logical function (for example, in color temperature (CCT) mode, the five-color lamps are combined to control color temperature. In this mode, color temperature (Color Temperature) and DUV offset can independently control the color temperature offset of the light, and the brightness channel controls the overall brightness. In this case, these three functions constitute three independent logical channels.).

[0063] In the application, if there is only one lighting device in a scene, the light effect triggering condition includes the light effect triggering condition of one lighting channel of the lighting device or the light effect triggering conditions of multiple lighting channels; if there are multiple lighting devices in a scene, the light effect triggering condition includes the light effect triggering conditions of multiple lighting channels (including multiple physical channels and / or multiple logical channels) of multiple lighting devices.

[0064] In the application, if the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition of one lighting channel or multiple lighting channels of a lighting device, then the one lighting channel or multiple lighting channels are controlled to trigger the light effect according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor corresponding to each lighting channel; if the updated initial counting parameter meets (at least one) target light channel among multiple lighting channels of multiple lighting devices, then (at least one) target light channel among multiple lighting channels of multiple lighting devices is controlled to trigger the light effect according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor corresponding to each light channel.

[0065] It is understandable that the above-mentioned multiple lighting devices can be controlled by one lighting control device or lighting control device.

[0066] In one embodiment, the light effect triggering condition further includes a preset triggering time;

[0067] Correspondingly, step S4 specifically further includes:

[0068] If the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition, the light effect is triggered at the preset triggering time according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor.

[0069] In applications, in some cases where the light effect does not need to be triggered immediately, a preset trigger time can be set in advance. On the premise that the updated initial counting parameters meet the light effect trigger conditions, if the preset trigger time is reached, the light effect is triggered according to the light effect trigger signal and the trigger time factor.

[0070] In the application, the preset trigger time can be set according to the user's actual needs. For example, the user can set one or more preset trigger times for one lighting channel or multiple lighting channels of a lighting device, or set one (the same) or multiple (different) preset trigger times for multiple lighting channels of multiple lighting devices. There is no limitation here.

[0071] In one embodiment, the light effect triggering condition further includes a preset advance time;

[0072] Correspondingly, step S4 specifically further includes:

[0073] If the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition, triggering the light effect at the actual triggering time according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor;

[0074] The actual trigger time is a time obtained by advancing the preset trigger time by the preset advance time.

[0075] In applications, some lighting devices, due to their inherent characteristics, require a certain ramp-up time (warm-up time) from fully dark to fully bright when triggering a lighting effect, which can affect exposure accuracy. Therefore, the impact of this ramp-up time can be addressed by setting a preset lead time (including one or more scheduled lead times for a single lighting channel or multiple lighting channels). For example, if the preset trigger time is A and the preset lead time is B, the preset trigger time is advanced by the preset lead time to obtain the actual trigger time. If the updated initial count parameters meet the light effect trigger conditions, the light effect is triggered at the actual trigger time AB, based on the light effect trigger signal and the trigger time factor.

[0076] In the application, the preset advance time can be set according to the actual needs of the user and is not limited here.

[0077] In application, the embodiment of the present application pre-configures the control data of the lighting device. Then, upon receiving a light effect trigger signal, the initial counting parameter is updated and the updated initial counting parameter is judged. When the light effect trigger condition is met, the light effect is triggered according to the light effect trigger signal and the trigger time factor. By setting the light effect trigger condition, the embodiment of the present application can achieve accurate and efficient light effect triggering, more easily meeting the different needs of users and improving the user experience.

[0078] Example 2

[0079] As shown in FIG2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a lighting control method, including the following steps S1, S2, S3 or S31, S311 or S312, S4 or S41; wherein the specific implementation of steps S1, S2, S3, and S4 is the same as that in the first embodiment and will not be repeated here. Steps S31, S311, and S312 are under the opposite conditions to those described in step S3 in the first embodiment, and step S41 is under the opposite conditions to those described in step S4 in the first embodiment. The lighting control method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0080] Step S1: Configure the control data of the lighting device according to the user's input information, and then proceed to step S2;

[0081] Step S2, receiving a light effect trigger signal, updating the initial counting parameter according to the light effect trigger signal, and proceeding to step S3 or S31;

[0082] Step S3: If the updated initial counting parameter is within the preset counting cycle range, determine whether the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition, and proceed to step S4 or S41;

[0083] Step S4: if the updated initial counting parameter meets the light effect triggering condition, triggering the light effect according to the light effect triggering signal and the triggering time factor;

[0084] Step S41: if the updated initial counting parameter does not meet the light effect triggering condition, returning to the step of receiving a light effect triggering signal and updating the initial counting parameter according to the light effect triggering signal;

[0085] Step S31: If the updated initial counting parameter is outside the preset counting cycle range, the updated initial counting parameter is restored to the initial value, and the restoration times are updated, and the process proceeds to step S311 or S312;

[0086] Step S311: If the updated number of recovery times meets the preset recovery condition, returning to the step of receiving a light effect trigger signal and updating the initial counting parameter according to the light effect trigger signal;

[0087] Step S312: If the updated number of restoration times does not meet the preset restoration condition, the current light effect triggering process is terminated and the process returns to the step of configuring the control data of the lighting device according to the user's input information.

[0088] In one embodiment, the control data further includes the number of times the initial counting parameter is restored and a preset restoration condition.

[0089] In the application, the number of recovery times and preset recovery conditions can be partially / fully configured or not configured according to the actual scenario and user needs, and are not limited here. In addition, parameters such as the initial value of the initial counting parameter, the preset counting cycle range, the light effect trigger condition, the trigger time factor, etc. can also be partially / fully configured or not configured according to the actual scenario and user needs, and are not limited here.

[0090] The following is a further explanation of the present application with reference to specific embodiments:

[0091] Take single-channel color temperature adjustment as an example:

[0092] (1) The user sets the relevant information of the light effect, for example, setting the color temperature of the channel in CCT mode to 3200K, the light output mode to normal mode, the brightness to 100%, immediate triggering when the light effect triggering conditions are met, the light effect lasting for 1000ms, no delay when the light effect ends, the excitation number of light channel A to 1, and the light effect executed 3 times;

[0093] Configure the control data of the lighting device, including setting the initial value of the initial count parameter to 0, the preset count cycle range to [0, 2], the light effect trigger condition to be updated with the initial count parameter to 1, the light effect trigger delay T0 of the light channel to 0, the light effect duration T1 to 1000ms, the light effect end delay T2 to 0, the default recovery number to 0, and the preset recovery condition to be updated with the recovery number less than 3;

[0094] (2) Upon receiving the first light effect trigger signal, the initial count parameter is updated to 1. The updated initial count parameter 1 is within the preset count cycle range [0, 2] and meets the light effect trigger condition. Light channel A immediately triggers the light effect according to the light effect trigger signal, and the light effect ends after lasting for 1000ms.

[0095] (3) Upon receiving the second light effect trigger signal, the initial count parameter is updated to 2. The updated initial count parameter 2 is within the preset count cycle range [0, 2], but does not meet the light effect trigger condition, and the process returns to step S2.

[0096] (4) Upon receiving the third light effect trigger signal, the initial count parameter is updated to 3. If the updated initial count parameter 3 is outside the preset count cycle range [0, 2], the updated initial count parameter 3 is restored to the initial value 0, the value of the number of restoration times is updated to 1, and the updated number of restoration times meets the preset restoration condition, and the process returns to step S2;

[0097] The fourth light effect trigger signal is received, which is consistent with the process of (2) above;

[0098] The fifth light effect trigger signal is received, which is consistent with the process of (3) above;

[0099] Upon receiving the sixth light effect trigger signal, the initial count parameter is updated to 3. If the updated initial count parameter 3 is outside the preset count cycle range [0, 2], the updated initial count parameter 3 is restored to the initial value 0, the value of the number of restoration times is updated to 2, and the updated number of restoration times meets the preset restoration condition, the process returns to step S2.

[0100] After receiving the seventh light effect trigger signal, the third light effect trigger is completed in the same manner as in the above (2). At this time, the user can choose to end the current light effect trigger process, or can choose to automatically end the current light effect trigger process after receiving the ninth light effect trigger signal.

[0101] Take dual-channel color temperature adjustment as an example:

[0102] (1) User-set information about light effects, for example, setting the color temperature in C channel CCT mode to 3200K, the color temperature in D channel CCT mode to 5600K, the light output mode to normal mode, the brightness to 100%, immediate triggering when the light effect triggering conditions are met, the light effect lasting 10ms, no delay when the light effect ends, the excitation number of light channel C to 1, the excitation number of light channel D to 2, and each light effect executed once;

[0103] Configure the control data of the lighting device, including configuring the initial value of the initial count parameter to be 0, the preset count cycle range to be [0, 2], the light effect triggering condition to trigger the light effect of light channel C when the updated initial count parameter is 1, and to trigger the light effect of light channel D when the updated initial count parameter is 2, the light effect triggering delay T0 of the light channel is 0, the light effect duration T1 is 10ms, the light effect end delay T2 is 0, the default recovery number is 0, and the preset recovery condition is that the updated recovery number is less than 1;

[0104] (2) Upon receiving the first light effect trigger signal, the initial count parameter is updated to 1. The updated initial count parameter 1 is within the preset count cycle range [0, 2] and meets the light effect trigger condition. Light channel C immediately triggers the light effect according to the light effect trigger signal, and the light effect ends after lasting for 10ms.

[0105] (3) When the second light effect trigger signal is received, the initial count parameter is updated to 2. The updated initial count parameter 2 is within the preset count cycle range [0, 2] and meets the light effect trigger condition. Light channel D immediately triggers the light effect according to the light effect trigger signal, and the light effect ends after lasting for 10ms. At this time, the user can choose to end the current light effect trigger process, or choose to automatically end the current light effect trigger process after receiving the third light effect trigger signal.

[0106] It should be understood that the above embodiments are merely examples and do not constitute a limitation of the present application. In actual applications, the methods provided in the embodiments of the present application may have more usage scenarios, which are not listed here one by one.

[0108] The control data of the lighting device is pre-configured. Then, when a light effect trigger signal is received, the initial counting parameter is updated and the updated initial counting parameter is judged. When the light effect trigger condition is met, the light effect is triggered according to the light effect trigger signal and the trigger time factor. By setting the light effect trigger condition, the embodiment of the application can achieve accurate and efficient light effect triggering, more easily meet the different needs of users, and improve the user experience.
