Title: |
Systems and Methods of Directing a Lighting Fixture in a Venue |
Abstract: |
Methods and systems are provided for directing a lighting fixture in a
venue. A user device is paired with a three-dimensional model space that
represents a physical space of the venue. A lighting beam destination is
indicated with the user device using a position and an orientation of the
user device. The indicated lighting beam destination is converted into
coordinates in the three-dimensional model space. A lighting fixture
orientation value to direct a lighting beam of the lighting fixture to
the lighting beam destination in the physical space of the venue is
determined based on the coordinates of the lighting beam destination in
the three-dimensional model space of the venue. A motor associated with
the lighting fixture is actuated to move the lighting fixture to a
lighting fixture orientation in the physical space of the venue based on
the lighting fixture orientation values.
