ROBOTIZED LIGHTING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD

摘要

A lighting apparatus comprises a head (14) with a light source directed in a light beam and a motorised kinematic structure (25) for spatially directing the head. An image sensor (30) is arranged in the head and it is directed in the direction of the light beam. Electronic processing means (25, 30) process the images taken by the image sensor (30) to distinguish at least one hand of a user inserted into the beam, to distinguish a gesture therein from among a predetermined series of preset gestures in the control system and control a corresponding interactive behaviour of the light source. Further distance sensors and sensors for identifying the position of acoustic sources are provided for further additional interactive behaviours of the apparatus.
