Devices and methods for providing a distributed manifestation in an environment

摘要

The present invention concerns a projection system for providing a distributed manifestation within an environment. The projection system includes a data generator for generating a plurality of data sets of associated state data and spatial coordinate data. The projection system also includes a projector in communication with the data generator for receiving the data sets. The projector is provided with a signal generating module for generating a plurality of electromagnetic signals, and a projecting module for projecting each of the electromagnetic signals towards a target location within the environment. The projection system also includes a plurality of receiving units distributed within the environment, each receiving unit having a receiver for receiving one of the electromagnetic signals when the receiving unit is positioned in the corresponding target location, each receiving unit being adapted to perform a change of state in response to the state data.

主权项

1. A system, comprising:
a plurality of receiving units; and a transmitter unit configured to transmit data to the plurality of receiving units, the data comprising state information corresponding to each of a plurality of spatial coordinates; wherein each one of the plurality of receiving units is configured to receive the data at a target location described by the spatial coordinates, to process the data, and to express a state in accordance with the state information that corresponds to the spatial coordinates describing the target location, as a result of the one receiving unit being at the target location when the data is received.
