AN2052: Intelligent Light Effects’ Controller for Entertainment Systems.

The controller is intended for creating visual effects during various entertainment performances: concert shows, discotheques, varieties, presentations. As opposed to existing pre- programmed or manually/sound controlled lighting systems, the novel approach for generation of visual effects is proposed. The participants’ movements are used to create visual effects in developed system. The Doppler Effect on ultrasound frequency is used for obtaining participants’ movement information. The controller is performing Doppler frequency spectrum analysis to determine performance participants’ movements speed, rhythm and create corresponding visual effects.
