  • the present disclosure relates to controlling the illumination emitted by one or more lighting components (illumination sources) in order to accompany the playing of the game.
  • Connected lighting systems are a class of lighting systems comprising networked illumination sources, preferably connected by a wireless network so that the illumination sources are wirelessly controllable.
  • These illumination sources or lighting components can be controlled from various user interfaces, such a smartphone and tablet applications, via Internet services or via connected physical devices that are sensors and switches.
  • the behaviour that can be assigned to a connected lighting system offers more opportunities than a traditional lighting system. For an end user it is possible to specify how he wants his lighting system to behave. It is even possible to specify different forms of behaviour at different moments in time. In other words, a user is now able to use his or her lighting systems not only for illumination or atmosphere creation but as a way to support or enhance any other activity happening in his environment or online, e.g. for entertainment, security, notifications, etc.
  • WO 2013/096412 describes an illumination device which can be integrated into portable signage, apparel or furniture and can be associated with seat/ticket information.
  • the illumination devices can receive signals from a central controller to provide illumination effects in the arena.
  • US 2007/0213126 discloses a sports training and testing apparatus for at least one athlete, said apparatus including a control unit adapted to implement a predetermined protocol; a plurality of remote units for providing a series of stimuli for said at least one athlete in accordance with the protocol; at least one sensor for providing to said control unit feedback information associated with said at least one athlete's response to the stimuli; and a communications network providing communications between the control unit and the plurality of remote units including said at least one sensor
  • aspects of the present invention provide a system to encourage children to play more outdoors by enhancing their outdoor playing experience, for example in the case of ball sports like football or tennis. Children are more and more involved in indoor activities like education, gaming etc. Playing outdoors has several benefits, one of which is the reduced probability of developing early myopia. Myopia scientists estimate that if children spend about three hours per day under light levels of at least 10,000 lux they are more protected against myopia (light levels in the classroom are about 500 lux) . In many parts of both the Western and the Asian developed countries, this is not met and is a fast growing problem. Embodiments of the invention described herein encourage children to play more outdoors and therefore enjoy all the health related benefits by providing an interactive systems that can enhance outdoor playing experience.

  • Another aspect of the invention provides a computer program product for controlling illumination emitted by one or more lighting components of a lighting system to accompany a game played by multiple mobile players, each player carrying a wearable device having a communication interface for communicating position related information of the player to the lighting controller
  • the computer program product comprises code embodied on a computer readable medium and configured so as when run on one or more control modules to perform operations of: accessing a set of lighting rules, the set of lighting rules specifying lighting outputs mapped to game events or states that can occur within the game; receiving input signals generated at the wearable devices of the player to identify a game state or event based on position related information of the players; based on the accessed set of lighting rules for the identified state or game event, controlling the lighting component to deliver the specified lighting output.
  • Another aspect of the invention provides a method of controlling illuminations emitted by one or more lighting components of a lighting system to accompany a game played by multiple mobile players, each player carrying a wearable device having a communication interface for communicating position related information of the player to the lighting controller, wherein the method comprises: accessing the set of lighting rules, the set of lighting rules specifying lighting outputs mapped to game events that can occur within the game; receiving input signals generated at the wearable devices of the players to identify a game state or event based on the position related information of the players; based on the accessed set of lighting rules for the identified state or game event, controlling the lighting component to deliver the specified lighting output.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an environment in which a game is being played by multiple mobile players.
  • Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a system for enhancing game play.
  • Lighting is perceived by end users not only as a functionality, but also something to play with in order to create atmosphere and adapt it to the need or desire of the moment. Lighting can also be utilised as a means of visual communication of information thanks to colours, dimming, dynamic effect, etc.
  • Children are increasingly involved in indoor activities like education, gaming etc. Playing outdoors has many benefits, one of which is a reduced probability of developing early myopia.

  • Wearable user interfaces such as smart bracelets and smart rings are available in the market. These devices are designed to always be carried by a user and can be connected with a smartphone or tablet, or with each other. Such devices provide a new paradigm for interaction with smart devices thanks to the capability of detecting specific moves and gestures via MEMS sensors that they have on board, such as 3D accelerometer and 3D gyroscope. Such smart devices can be configured to have connectivity to a smartphone/tablet (e.g. via Bluetooth) and/or to the Internet (for example, via Wi-Fi). Such devices may also be connected to other connected infrastructures around the person, such as smart lighting. Digital lighting systems are readily available due to digitisation trends and the increasing manufacture of illumination devices using LEDs. These allow illumination sources to be embedded in objects and textiles and allow light to be controlled in a digital way and connected to other systems by wireless and/or wired communication.
  • Embodiments of the invention described herein utilise wearable devices and controllable lighting to provide an interactive system which enhances an outdoor playing experience for children.
  • the outdoor playing experience may be experienced by adults as well as children.

  • Figure 2 is a highly schematic version of one embodiment of the apparatus in accordance with the invention. It differs from the apparatus of Figure 1 in that the lighting controller is embodied in one or more local module of the wearable devices 8. Thus, Figure 2 illustrates three wearable devices 8, each comprising a local control module 80.
  • the local control module operates as the lighting controller, either by itself or in communication with local controllers of other wearable devices in a distributed computing fashion.

  • Position related information 30 is supplied from the wearable devices 8 to the lighting controller 10. This is via the network 18. It will readily be understood that even though the lighting controller 10 may be implemented in one or more of the wearable devices, the communication from each wearable device to the lighting controller is likely to take place via the network 18. It may be possible for there to be local interconnections on each wearable device between the proximity detector 82 and the GPS 84 to the local control module 80, as an alternative embodiment. This would allow for local communication within a wearable device. Communication of position related information from other wearable devices would come via the network 18.

This maps various lighting outputs onto identifiable game events or game states. For example, the system can advise how to play, by highlighting spots in the environment (using lighting components 14) or players (using lighting components 12) where a ball may need to move to. External light sources that project spotlights or clothes with embedded lighting can be used. Smart algorithms running in the lighting controller 10 combine the position related information 30 from the devices and elicit feedback as explained above, from one or more of the light sources in the system based on the rules and the game play being played.
