Patent attributes
A lighting system comprising multiple illumination sources is operable to vary a first and second light attribute over an array of locations. A user selects a first layer comprising an image having different values of the first attribute at different positions within the image, and at least one further layer representing motion. The first attribute at different locations in the array is mapped to the values of the first attribute at different positions in the first layer image, and the second attribute is varied based on the further layer so as to create an appearance of motion. The further layer comprises an algorithm selected by the user from amongst a plurality of predetermined algorithms, each configured so as to create the appearance of motion of a plurality of discrete, virtual lighting objects across the array, the motion of each of the virtual lighting objects being related but not coincident.
