Abstract
A control method includes determining a first control signal of a first control unit, determining a second control signal of a second control unit, and controlling a light effect of the illumination device according to a control rule, the first control signal, and the second control signal. The first control signal is used to control an illumination device to generate a first light effect. The second control signal is used to control the illumination device to generate a second light effect.
Claims13
A control method, comprising:
- determining a first control signal of a first control unit, the first control signal being used to control an illumination device to generate a first light effect;
- determining a second control signal of a second control unit, the second control signal being used to control the illumination device to generate a second light effect, the first light effect and the second light effect being generated by the same illumination device;
- and
- controlling a light effect of the illumination device according to a control rule, the first control signal, and the second control signal, including:
- selecting the first control signal with a high priority to control the illumination device to generate the first effect according to predetermined priorities and ignoring the second control signal;
- or
- controlling the illumination device to generate a third light effect according to a predetermined processing rule, the first control signal, and the second control signal, a combined light effect of the first light effect and the second light effect being different from the third light effect.
