Information processing method, information processing system, and electric light bulb light source apparatus

An electric light bulb light source apparatus, comprising:

• a lighting unit including a light source;
• a functional unit having a predetermined function;
• a setting unit that selects, from any of a parent mode and a child mode, an operation mode for cooperative control with a different electric light bulb light source apparatus with respect to the predetermined function, and sets the selected operation mode;
• a first control unit that causes, in a case where the parent mode is set, the lighting unit to execute a first lighting operation for the parent mode in response to a predetermined lighting control signal relating to an operation of the lighting unit, and transmits, to the different electric light bulb light source apparatus set to the child mode, a cooperative control signal for causing a second lighting operation for the child mode to be executed, the second lighting operation for the child mode being different from the first lighting operation;
• and
• a second control unit that causes, in a case where the child mode is set, the lighting unit to execute the second lighting operation on the basis of the cooperative control signal transmitted from the different electric light bulb light source apparatus set to the parent mode.

An information processing system, comprising:

• one or more electric light bulb light source apparatuses, the one or more electric light bulb light source apparatuses each including
• a lighting unit including a light source,
• a functional unit having a predetermined function,
• a setting unit that selects, from any of a parent mode and a child mode, an operation mode for cooperative control with a different electric light bulb light source apparatus with respect to the predetermined function, and sets the selected operation mode,
• a first control unit that causes, in a case where the parent mode is set, the lighting unit to execute a first lighting operation for the parent mode in response to a predetermined lighting control signal relating to an operation of the lighting unit, and transmits, to the different electric light bulb light source apparatus set to the child mode, a cooperative control signal for causing a second lighting operation for the child mode to be executed, the second lighting operation for the child mode being different from the first lighting operation, and
• a second control unit that causes, in a case where the child mode is set, the lighting unit to execute the second lighting operation on the basis of the cooperative control signal transmitted from the different electric light bulb light source apparatus set to the parent mode;
• and
• a remote controller that transmits the predetermined lighting control signal to the electric light bulb light source apparatus set to the parent mode among the one or more electric light bulb light source apparatuses.
