Abstract
A multi-track illumination content editing system allows creation or alteration of content using multiple input tracks representing illumination or other electromagnetic emissions and auxiliary content representing presentations other than electronic emissions, e.g., images, audio, or video. The editing system may particularly perform mixed media editing that manipulates both illumination and auxiliary content so that output illumination or auxiliary tracks depend on both illumination and auxiliary input tracks.
Claims16
A process for producing illumination, the process comprising:
- receiving source illumination content representing illumination, the source illumination content being formatted for a source illumination system to play;
- using the source illumination content in determining a target spectral power distribution for illumination from a target light source in a target illumination system, the target illumination system being different from the source illumination system;
- calculating control parameters that would cause the target light source to produce illumination approximating the target spectral power distribution;
- and
- applying the control parameters to the target light source to produce illumination.
A method for operating an illumination system including one or more light sources, the method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of tracks representing illumination, the tracks respectively corresponding to a plurality of categories of light sources;
- selecting from among the plurality of categories, a first category for a first light source in the illumination system, wherein the first category indicates a position of the first light source in an environment to be illuminated;
- and
- using the first light source for playing the track that corresponds to the first category.
