Adaptive Light Effects for Live Broadcast Synchronization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to provide an effective lighting experience for live broadcasts at remote locations with minimal user input, as they require manual adjustment of settings for each broadcast, which is cumbersome and often not feasible.
Innovation Solution
A system that determines lighting effects based on input signals, identifies unadjusted settings, and adjusts them using values derived from other users' adjustments, allowing for automatic synchronization with audio and video content, including delay compensation and event-specific effects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If manual adjustment of lighting settings is performed for each live broadcast, then lighting quality is improved, but user effort and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by collecting and storing lighting setting adjustments from multiple users across different systems before they are needed. When a user wants to adjust lighting for a live broadcast, the system has already gathered adjustment data from other users, allowing immediate application of optimized settings without requiring the current user to manually experiment with each parameter.
Solution Approach 2:
The system copies successful lighting setting adjustments made by one user to other users who are watching the same live broadcast. Instead of each user independently adjusting settings, the system identifies effective adjustments from multiple users and replicates them across the network, allowing users to benefit from collective optimization without performing the manual adjustment themselves.
2Ease of operation
If lighting settings are automatically determined in real-time, then user effort is reduced, but lighting quality deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by collecting adjustment data from multiple users who are watching the same live broadcast and using this aggregated information to automatically determine optimal lighting settings. The system continuously monitors what adjustments users make and uses this feedback to refine and improve automatic lighting determination, combining the ease of automation with the quality of manual optimization.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing users to make individual lighting adjustments that automatically benefit other users watching the same broadcast. Each user's adjustments are fed back into the system and automatically applied to improve the lighting experience for the entire user base, eliminating the need for each user to manually optimize settings while maintaining high lighting quality.
3Ease of operation
If default lighting settings are used for live broadcasts, then ease of operation is improved, but adaptability to different broadcasts deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies dynamics by transitioning from static default lighting settings to dynamic, adaptive settings that automatically adjust based on the specific live broadcast content and real-time user feedback. The system monitors user adjustments during broadcasts and dynamically modifies lighting parameters to suit different types of content (sports events, concerts, news), maintaining both ease of operation and adaptability.

AI summary
A system (1) for controlling a lighting device (11-12) to render adjusted light effects in relation to audio and/or video content while a media rendering device (23) renders this content is configured to receive one or more input signals, determine light effects based on the input signals, identify one or more settings which have not been adjusted by a user of the system in relation to the audio and/or video content, and determine one or more values for the settings based on the input signals. The values are based on adjustments made by one or more users of one or more other systems (48,49) to the settings in relation to the audio and/or video content. The system is further configured to adjust the light effects based on the values and control the lighting device to render the adjusted light effects.
