Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing stage representation systems face limitations in content representation due to increased complexity and spatial constraints as the number of LEDs increases, leading to restricted dynamic motion and lighting control.
Innovation Solution
A stage representation system utilizing adjustable suspension lines and elevating units to control the position and angle of display panels with integrated LEDs, allowing for dynamic lighting and motion control, enabling arbitrary three-dimensional object representation with increased LED density and depth perception.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the number of LEDs is increased to enhance content representation, then the representable content richness is improved, but the number of suspension lines increases leading to spatial limitations on the stage
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple LEDs onto a single suspension line, allowing multiple light sources to be controlled independently while reducing the total number of suspension lines required. This merging approach maintains the ability to represent rich content with multiple LEDs while overcoming the spatial limitations caused by excessive suspension lines
2Ease of operation
If the number of suspension lines is increased to control more LEDs, then the lighting control capability is improved, but the spatial limitations on the stage increase
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple LEDs are merged onto single suspension lines, reducing the number of suspension lines needed and thereby freeing up stage space while maintaining independent control capability for each LED through the control system
3Quantity of substance
If traditional suspension systems are used with increased LED density, then the lighting coverage is improved, but the weight and responsiveness of the system deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple LEDs are combined onto single suspension lines, which reduces the overall number of suspension components and their associated weights. This merging strategy allows higher LED density to be achieved without proportionally increasing the weight of the suspension system
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs flexible suspension lines that can accommodate multiple LEDs along their length, allowing for compact arrangements that reduce overall system weight while maintaining high LED density for improved lighting coverage

AI summary
There is provided a novel representation without depending on a limitation of space on a stage. A stage representation system includes a display panel (121, 122, 123) suspended via a plurality of suspension lines (111, 112, 113) from a ceiling of a stage and a control unit (130) configured to dynamically control lengths of the plurality of suspension lines (111, 112, 113) in space of the stage and display of the display panel (121, 122, 123).
