Title: |
Method and Apparatus for Controlling Images With Image Projection Lighting Devices |
Abstract: |
A lighting system includes a central controller and multiparameter lights,
including IPLDs. A display of the multiparameter lights at the central
controller includes the IPLDs and their image parameters, which are used
to evoke a display of graphics tools at the central controller for
originating images. Images originating at the central controller are
transmitted to the IPLDs either by or under control of the central
controller. The graphics tools may also be able to manipulate images. The
central controller is provided with one or more image editors, which
include the graphics tools. The outputs of the image editors, which are
referred to as "image banks," are routed to multiple multiparameter lights
(including IPLDs) in accordance with assignments made by the operator of
the central controller. The central controller also uses a collage display
screen of a collage generator to allow the operator to select an image to
collage.
