Method and device for controlling output devices based on generating a grid from sensor device inputs and location information

A method of controlling output devices, the method comprising:

• receiving inputs from sensor devices,
• identifying, for each sensor device, a specific type of the sensor device and a different specific function for accessing the respective specific type of sensor device,
• accessing location information defining a location of each sensor device,
• generating a final grid from the received inputs and the accessed location information, the final grid containing non-zero values at the locations of the sensor devices for which an input has been received and containing non-zero values at locations related to the locations of the sensor devices for which an input has been received, wherein generating of the final grid comprises generating a plurality of intermediate grids, each intermediate grid representing inputs from a different specific type of sensor device and where each input received from a sensor device is processed with the different specific function for accessing the respective specific type of sensor device, and generating the final grid from the plurality of intermediate grids,
• accessing location information defining a location of each output device;
• and
• transmitting outputs to those output devices whose value at the location of the respective output device within the grid is above a predetermined threshold.
