Group-Controlled Cheering Light Devices for Dynamic Venue Patterns
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing illumination devices in sports and performance venues struggle with systematic illumination patterns and unsatisfactory cheering effects due to individual control of multiple devices, limiting group-performance presentations.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for controlling cheering light-emitting devices in groups, assigning group identification information, and creating mapping data to synchronize color changes across devices based on spectator positions, allowing real-time group-based control and reduced data transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple illumination devices are individually controlled, then each device can be independently adjusted, but it becomes difficult to create systematic illumination patterns and achieve satisfactory cheering effects
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the audience seating area into multiple zones or segments, with each zone assigned a specific illumination pattern and color scheme. This segmentation allows systematic control of large numbers of devices while maintaining individual device independence, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent combines multiple individually controlled illumination devices into coordinated groups that operate synchronously. By merging the control of multiple devices through a centralized system that coordinates their operation, the patent achieves systematic illumination patterns while preserving the adaptability of individual device adjustment.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a large number of illumination devices are used for group-performance presentations, then more comprehensive illumination effects can be achieved, but data transmission and control complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the control system into hierarchical levels, with a central control unit that manages overall coordination and regional control units that manage specific zones. This segmentation reduces the complexity of controlling large numbers of devices by distributing the control burden while maintaining comprehensive illumination effects.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the control parameters from individual device-level control to zone-level or group-level control. By aggregating control at higher levels and using parameters such as zone identification and group coordination, the system manages comprehensive illumination effects without proportionally increasing control complexity.
3Speed
If real-time control of cheering light-emitting devices is implemented, then dynamic illumination effects can be achieved, but data transmission delays may occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data transmission system into distributed communication channels, with regional control units receiving and processing control signals locally. This segmentation reduces the distance and time for data transmission, enabling real-time control while minimizing transmission delays through hierarchical data distribution.

AI summary
Disclosed is a method for controlling seats-based group-performance in a sports or performance venue using a plurality of cheering light-emitting devices. The method includes recording group identification information corresponding to spectator or audience seats position information obtained based on ticket information into the plurality of cheering light-emitting devices; grouping some of the cheering light-emitting devices rendering the same color for a specific group-performance presentation period into a single group; assigning the same group identification information to said some of the cheering light-emitting devices; and selectively turning on or off the plurality of cheering light-emitting devices corresponding to individual spectator or audience seats of the sports or performance venue, thereby to present an image from the spectator or audience seats of the sports or performance venue for a specific group-performance presentation period.
