TOKYO, Oct 22 (Bernama) --
Rhizomatiks Co., Ltd. and Evixar Inc., both based in Tokyo, have jointly developed the "Home Sync Light" device for enjoying live streaming at home with lights synchronized with live performance. The two companies tested the device during the special performance at "P.O.P (Perfume Online Present) Festival" held on Monday, September 21 (a public holiday).
- Home Sync Light
The Home Sync Light device emits light to enhance the pleasure of live streaming experience at home by synchronizing with streamed sounds at high precision. The light from the LED in sync with live video productions, lighting, lasers, etc. spreads throughout the room, making the viewing experience of live streaming more immersive.
Conventionally, wireless-based wearable LED devices have been used in live entertainment production. Although more people are currently watching live performances with streaming at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic that restricts live events with a large crowd, having those LED devices synced up with live performance for home use puts a considerable burden on users and restricts a viewing environment. It usually needs device configuration and app installment on smartphones for syncing, or a specific web page to watch the streaming.
Home Sync Light makes use of acoustic communication "Another Track (R)" developed by Evixar to sync through sound on the device alone. Users just need to turn on their device and put it where they can hear the streaming sound for the LED to automatically start flashing in sync with the music. In addition, synchronization takes only about one second even if the user starts watching the streaming from halfway through. Furthermore, the streaming platform is not restricted since no dedicated smartphone apps or special web pages are required for device communication. Acoustic communication allows users to enjoy exactly the same light as at the venue even on live streaming when the actual live performance is carried out simultaneously with online streaming after the pandemic, providing an enhanced sense of unity.
Although this device was designed with LED strips wrapping around a cylindrical body, it can be enjoyed in many different ways at home by, for example, standing the device as it is as a light stand or stretching it out and arranging it around the monitor. It can also be created with an original body in a completely new design without having to change the internal circuit configuration.
