Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional light-emitting devices lack the ability to provide cheering effects that correspond to sound sources encountered in everyday settings, requiring separate pairing operations for synchronization with sound sources in performance and non-performance environments.
Innovation Solution
A light-emitting device equipped with a communication unit, sensing unit, and processor that can receive sound sources and generate light emission control signals, either from a database or based on real-time sound recognition, to produce synchronized light effects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional light-emitting devices are used, then basic lighting function is provided, but they cannot provide cheering effects that correspond to sound sources encountered in everyday settings
Solution Approach 1:
The light-emitting device is designed to perform multiple functions: it can operate in a first mode for performance venue lighting effects and in a second mode for everyday sound source synchronization. The processor selectively switches between these modes based on the operating environment, allowing a single device to serve both specialized and general purposes without requiring separate devices for each function.
Solution Approach 2:
In the second mode, the device automatically receives sound sources from the outside environment through the sensing unit, generates corresponding light emission control signals based on the sound characteristics, and controls the light-emitting unit without requiring external control devices or manual pairing operations. This self-service capability enables the device to autonomously provide cheering effects for everyday sound sources.
2Ease of operation
If separate pairing operations are required for synchronization, then precise sound-light synchronization is achieved, but the operation process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The device automatically detects sound sources from the outside environment through the sensing unit and generates light emission control signals based on the detected sound characteristics. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for manual pairing operations with external control devices, allowing users to simply activate the device and have it automatically synchronize with the ambient sound source, thereby saving time and simplifying operation.
3Productivity
If the device can recognize and respond to sound sources in real-time, then cheering effects are enhanced, but the processing requirements and energy consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The processor selectively activates the sound recognition and light emission control functions based on the operating mode. In the first mode for performance venues, the device operates with full functionality for precise control. In the second mode for everyday use, the device activates only the essential sound detection and basic light response functions, reducing processing requirements and energy consumption while still providing effective cheering effects for the given context.
Data Source
AI summary
A light emission control device includes an antenna, a communication unit, a sensing unit, and a processor connected to the antenna, the communication unit, and the sensing unit. The processor receives a sound source output from the outside through the sensing unit. When the light emission control device is equipped with a database in which at least one sound source and light emission control information respectively mapped to the at least one sound source are stored, the processor searches the database for light emission control information mapped to a sound source identical to the received sound source. When the light emission control device is not equipped with the database, the processor generates light emission control information for instructing light emission of a specific color and pattern based on the received sound source, and transmits a light emission control signal corresponding to the searched or generated light emission control information.
