Abstract
A synchronized pattern sequence system including a processor and a timing receiver configured to receive a time reference signal to set a time of the electronic device. The system further includes sequence receiver configured to receive a sequence pattern and a timing for presenting the sequence pattern and a pattern indicator configured to present the sequence pattern. The system also has a memory and machine-readable code stored in the memory. The machine-readable code is configured to cause the processor to direct the pattern indicator to present the sequence pattern as a recognizable pattern according to the received timing in synchronization with the sequence pattern presented on at least one other electronic device.
Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- a processor;
- a timing receiver configured to receive a reference time signal to set a time of the electronic device;
- a sequence receiver configured to receive a sequence pattern and a timing for presenting the sequence pattern;
- a light-emitting diode configured to display the sequence pattern as a visual display;
- and
- a memory configured with non-transitory machine-readable code stored, the non-transitory machine-readable code configured to cause the processor to direct the light-emitting diode to present the sequence pattern as a visually recognizable pattern according to the received sequence pattern, and the received timing for presenting the sequence pattern in synchronization with the sequence pattern presented on at least one other electronic device.
A method of presenting an audio, visual or vibratory sequence pattern at a plurality of electronic devices, comprising:
- receiving a same time reference signal at a timing receiver of each of the plurality of the electronic devices;
- setting a time for each of the electronic devices according to the received time reference signal;
- receiving a sequence pattern and a timing for presenting the sequence pattern at a sequence receiver of each of the electronic devices;
- and
- presenting the sequence pattern as a synchronous audio, visual or vibratory indicator on each of the electronic devices according to the received sequence pattern and the received timing.
An electronic device comprising:
- a processor;
- a timing receiver configured to receive a time reference signal to set a time of the electronic device;
- a sequence receiver configured to receive a sequence pattern and a timing for presenting the sequence pattern;
- a pattern indicator configured to present the sequence pattern;
- and
- a memory configured with non-transitory machine-readable code stored, the machine-readable code configured to cause the processor to direct the pattern indicator to present the sequence pattern as a visual, audio or vibratory sequence that is perceivable by humans according to the received timing in synchronization with the sequence pattern presented on at least one other electronic device.
