Abstract
An independent display control apparatus communicates with a plurality of display devices. The display control apparatus includes a receiving module, a signal generating module, and a signal transmitting module. The receiving module receives the location information of a plurality of display devices and the signal generating module generates control signals based on the received locations, different locations can thus receive different control signals. Each of the control signals corresponds to a different segment of a predetermined media file transmitted to each display device and the group of display devices can thus be made to simulate the flight and bursting of a firework, or simulate the echoing of a single sound for example.
Claims12
A method for controlling multiple display devices, the method comprising:
- receiving location information of a plurality of display devices;
- generating different control signals based on the location information of the display devices, each control signal corresponding to a different segment of a predetermined media file stored in a display control apparatus;
- and
- transmitting a control signal from amongst the different control signals to each one of the display devices thereby causing each one of the display devices to display a segment of the predetermined media file not displayed by another display device from amongst the plurality of display devices.
A display control apparatus communicates with a plurality of display devices;
- the display control apparatus comprising:
- a storage device configured to store a predetermined media file;
- a receiving module configured to receive location information of the display devices;
- a signal generating module configured to generate different control signals based on the received location information;
- each of the control signals corresponding to a different segment of the predetermined media file;
- a signal transmitting module configured to transmit a control signal from amongst the different control signals to each one of the display device thereby causing each one of the display device to display a segment of the predetermined media file not displayed by another display device from amongst the plurality of electronic devices.
