請參閱第5圖,其係為本發明之定位系統之第三實施例之示意圖;第5 圖舉例說明了定位系統採用之紫蜂(ZigBee)定位演算法之另一個較佳的例子。 Please refer to FIG. 5, which is a schematic diagram of a third embodiment of the positioning system of the present invention; The figure illustrates another preferred example of the ZigBee positioning algorithm used by the positioning system.

如圖所示,定位系統1可包含複數個定位裝置11.1~11.25及控制裝置12,控制裝置12及該些定位裝置11.1~11.25可使紫蜂無線通訊協定進行無線通訊。 As shown in the figure, the positioning system 1 may include a plurality of positioning devices 11.1 to 11.25 and a control device 12. The control device 12 and the positioning devices 11.1 to 11.25 may enable the Zigbee wireless communication protocol to perform wireless communication.

由於若僅根據訊號強度建構多個三角形,並無法確切判斷該些三角形確切方向,故本實施例採取以下演算法,其可計算出該些三角形與座標軸之確切關係,並設定定位裝置11.2為已定義點。 Since it is impossible to determine the exact directions of the triangles based on the strength of the signal alone, this embodiment adopts the following algorithm, which can calculate the exact relationship between the triangles and the coordinate axis, and sets the positioning device 11.2 as the Define points.

步驟1:控制裝置12可設定已位於中心之定位裝置11.1向外延伸三角形之三角形為A(11.1;11.4;11.9)、F(11.1;11.9;11.11)、E(11.1;11.11;11.22)、C(11.1;11.22;11.2)、B(11.1;11.2;11.3)及D(11.1;11.3;11.4)。 Step 1: The control device 12 may set the triangle of the positioning device 11.1 which has been located at the center to the outwardly extending triangle as A (11.1; 11.4; 11.9), F (11.1; 11.9; 11.11), E (11.1; 11.11; 11.22), C (11.1; 11.22; 11.2), B (11.1; 11.2; 11.3), and D (11.1; 11.3; 11.4).

因A(11.1;11.4;11.9)與F(11.1;11.9;11.11)及D(11.1;11.3;11.4)有共同點,即定位裝置11.9及定位裝置11.4,故控制裝置12可判斷F(11.1;11.9;11.11)及D(11.1;11.3;11.4)位於A(11.1;11.4;11.9)之左右兩側。 Because A (11.1; 11.4; 11.9) has the same points with F (11.1; 11.9; 11.11) and D (11.1; 11.3; 11.4), namely the positioning device 11.9 and the positioning device 11.4, the control device 12 can judge F (11.1; 11.9; 11.11) and D (11.1; 11.3; 11.4) are located on the left and right sides of A (11.1; 11.4; 11.9).

因F(11.1;11.9;11.11)與A(11.1;11.4;11.9)及、E(11.1;11.11;11.22)有共同點,即定位裝置11.9及定位裝置11.11,故控制裝置12可判斷A(11.1;11.4;11.9)及E(11.1;11.11;11.22)位於F(11.1;11.9;11.11)左右兩側;以此類推,最後控制裝置12可得到以下資訊:A、F及D相鄰;F、E及A相鄰;E、C及F相鄰;C、B及E相鄰;B、D及C相鄰;D、A及B相鄰。 Because F (11.1; 11.9; 11.11) and A (11.1; 11.4; 11.9) and E (11.1; 11.11; 11.22) have common points, that is, the positioning device 11.9 and the positioning device 11.11, the control device 12 can judge A (11.1 11.4; 11.9) and E (11.1; 11.11; 11.22) are located on the left and right sides of F (11.1; 11.9; 11.11); and so on, the control device 12 can finally obtain the following information: A, F and D are adjacent; F, E and A are adjacent; E, C and F are adjacent; C, B and E are adjacent; B, D and C are adjacent; D, A and B are adjacent.

藉由以上可判斷三角形順序為A-F-E-C-B-D-A;最後再由已定義點,即定位裝置11.2(與三角形C比較)判斷確切完整三角形相對於座標軸之切確方向,重覆進行上述的步驟即可向外延伸對所有三角形進行完整且正確的定位。 Based on the above, it can be judged that the triangle order is AFECBDA. Finally, the defined point, that is, the positioning device 11.2 (compared with the triangle C), determines the exact direction of the complete triangle relative to the coordinate axis. Repeat the above steps to extend outward. Full and correct positioning of all triangles.

當然,上述僅為舉例,定位系統1採用之定位演算法均可依實際情況改變,本發明並不以此為限。 Of course, the above is only an example, and the positioning algorithms used by the positioning system 1 can be changed according to actual conditions, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

值得一提的是,由於頻寬及其它技術問題,習知技藝之定位技術無法在一空間中對大量的定位目標同時進行定位。相反的,根據本發明之實施例,定位系統可利用特殊的相對位置演算法計算複數個定位裝置彼此之間的相對位置,並可透過紫蜂通訊協定與該些定位裝置通訊,因此可以克服頻寬等技術問題,故可對大量的定位裝置進行定位。 It is worth mentioning that due to bandwidth and other technical issues, the positioning technology of the conventional art cannot locate a large number of positioning targets in one space at the same time. On the contrary, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the positioning system can use a special relative position algorithm to calculate the relative positions of the plurality of positioning devices with each other, and can communicate with the positioning devices through the Zigbee communication protocol, so the frequency can be overcome. Wide technical issues, so a large number of positioning devices can be positioned.

又,習知技藝之定位技術也無法有效地追蹤可移動的定位目標。相反的,根據本發明之實施例,定位系統可持續接收各個定位裝置之定位資訊更新該些定位裝置彼此之間的相對位置,並可再透過座標網格來計算該些定位裝置的絕對位置,因此即使該些定位裝置可是移動的,定位系統仍可有效地追蹤並控制這些定位裝置。 In addition, the positioning technology of the conventional technique cannot effectively track the movable positioning target. On the contrary, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the positioning system can continuously receive the positioning information of each positioning device to update the relative positions of the positioning devices, and then calculate the absolute positions of the positioning devices through the coordinate grid. Therefore, even if the positioning devices are mobile, the positioning system can still effectively track and control the positioning devices.

此外,根據本發明之實施例,定位系統不但可針對分佈於二維空間的定位裝置進行定位,更可針對分佈於三維空間的定位裝置進行定位,因此使用上更具彈性。 In addition, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the positioning system can perform positioning not only on positioning devices distributed in a two-dimensional space, but also on positioning devices distributed in a three-dimensional space, so it is more flexible in use.

請參閱第6圖、第7圖及第8圖,其係為本發明之定位系統之第四實施例之第一示意圖、第二示意圖及第三示意圖。如第6圖所示,定位系統2可設置於用於演唱會場館,演唱會場館聚集了大量的觀眾以觀看表演。定位系統2可包含複數個定位裝置及控制裝置;在本實施例中,定位裝置可為螢光棒21(或螢光手觸及其它類似的裝置),而演唱會場館之各個觀眾可手持一個螢光棒21觀看表演,而控制裝置可為電腦主機22,及該些螢光棒21可透過紫蜂無線通訊協定與電腦主機22進行無線通訊。 Please refer to FIGS. 6, 7 and 8, which are a first schematic diagram, a second schematic diagram, and a third schematic diagram of the fourth embodiment of the positioning system of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the positioning system 2 can be installed in a concert venue, and the concert venue gathers a large number of audiences to watch the performance. The positioning system 2 may include a plurality of positioning devices and control devices; in this embodiment, the positioning device may be a fluorescent stick 21 (or fluorescent hand touches other similar devices), and each audience at the concert venue may hold a fluorescent device The light stick 21 watches the performance, and the control device may be the computer host 22, and the fluorescent sticks 21 may perform wireless communication with the computer host 22 through the Zigbee wireless communication protocol.

任一個螢光棒21可根據由鄰近的其它該些螢光棒21中選擇訊號強度超過一預設訊號強度門檻值的複數個螢光棒21,並可產生定位資訊。定位 資訊可包含此螢光棒21與各個選定的螢光棒21之間的訊號強度,該些選定的螢光棒21之間的訊號強度及上述各個裝置之識別碼。 Any one of the fluorescent rods 21 may select a plurality of fluorescent rods 21 with a signal intensity exceeding a preset signal intensity threshold value from other adjacent fluorescent rods 21 and may generate positioning information. Positioning The information may include the signal strength between the fluorescent stick 21 and each selected fluorescent stick 21, the signal strength between the selected fluorescent sticks 21, and the identification code of each of the devices.

同樣的,電腦主機22可根據上述定位資訊執行一相對位置演算法,以計算該些螢光棒21彼此之間的相對位置。其中,電腦主機22可根據此螢光棒21與該些選定的螢光棒21之間的訊號強度計算此螢光棒21與該些選定的螢光棒21之間的距離,並可根據該些選定的螢光棒21之間的訊號強度計算該些選定的螢光棒21之間的距離,並可根據此螢光棒21與該些選定的螢光棒21之間的訊號強度計算該螢光棒21與任二個相鄰的該些選定的螢光棒21之間形成的夾角。 Similarly, the computer host 22 may execute a relative position algorithm based on the positioning information to calculate the relative positions of the fluorescent rods 21 to each other. The host computer 22 can calculate the distance between the fluorescent stick 21 and the selected fluorescent sticks 21 according to the signal strength between the fluorescent stick 21 and the selected fluorescent sticks 21, and can calculate the distance between the fluorescent sticks 21 and the selected fluorescent sticks 21. The signal strength between the selected fluorescent sticks 21 is used to calculate the distance between the selected fluorescent sticks 21, and the signal strength between the selected fluorescent sticks 21 and the selected fluorescent sticks 21 can be used to calculate the An included angle formed between the fluorescent rod 21 and any two adjacent selected fluorescent rods 21.

透過上述的方式,電腦主機22可計算任一個螢光棒21與相鄰的該些螢光棒21彼此之間的相對位置,進而獲得所有螢光棒21彼此之間的相對位置;此時,雖然電腦主機22尚無法得知該些觀眾的確實位置,但己可獲得該些觀眾在演唱會場館的分佈情形。 In the above manner, the host computer 22 can calculate the relative positions of any one of the fluorescent rods 21 and the adjacent fluorescent rods 21 to obtain the relative positions of all the fluorescent rods 21; at this time, Although the host computer 22 has not been able to know the exact locations of the audiences, it can already obtain the distribution of the audiences in the concert venues.

如第7圖所示,電腦主機22可根據其本身的位置做為參考點以產生座標網格G,並可根據電腦主機22與各個螢光棒21之間的距離、座標網格G及該些螢光棒21彼此之間的相對位置計算各個螢光棒21的絕對位置。接下來,電腦主機22則可根據該些螢光棒21的識別碼發送控制訊號控制任一個螢光棒21。在本實施例中,由於觀眾僅分布於二維空間,因此座標網格G可為二維座標網格以針對分佈於二維空間的觀眾進行定位;當然,若觀眾分布於三維空間,座標網格G而為三維座標網格,以針對分佈於三維空間的觀眾進行定位。 As shown in FIG. 7, the computer host 22 can generate a coordinate grid G according to its own position as a reference point, and can also calculate the coordinate grid G and the distance between the computer host 22 and each fluorescent rod 21, The relative positions of these fluorescent rods 21 to each other are used to calculate the absolute position of each fluorescent rod 21. Next, the host computer 22 can send a control signal to control any one of the fluorescent sticks 21 according to the identification codes of the fluorescent sticks 21. In this embodiment, since the audience is only distributed in a two-dimensional space, the coordinate grid G may be a two-dimensional coordinate grid to locate the audience distributed in a two-dimensional space; of course, if the audience is distributed in a three-dimensional space, Grid G is a three-dimensional coordinate grid to locate viewers distributed in three-dimensional space.

此外,電腦主機22可持續接收各個螢光棒21之定位資訊,以更新該些螢光棒21彼此之間的相對位置,進而追蹤該些螢光棒21的絕對位置,因此即使手持該些螢光棒21的觀眾不斷在演唱會場館中移動,電腦主機22 仍可準確地定位該些螢光棒21。 In addition, the host computer 22 can continuously receive the positioning information of each fluorescent stick 21 to update the relative positions of the fluorescent sticks 21 and track the absolute positions of the fluorescent sticks 21, so even if the fluorescent sticks 21 are held in hand, The audience of the light stick 21 is constantly moving in the concert venue, and the computer host 22 The fluorescent rods 21 can still be accurately positioned.

如第8圖所示,電腦主機22可視演唱會進行的狀況,如演唱者演唱的曲目及出場的來賓等等,發出控制訊號以控制該些螢光棒21發出光線,以形成特殊的圖案,如此可提供特殊的視覺效果並增添演唱會的氣份;其中,電腦主機22可透過廣播的方式根據識別碼發出控制訊號至指定的螢光棒21,並可透過其它的螢光棒21做為資料橋接路徑將控制訊號傳送至指定的螢光棒21。 As shown in FIG. 8, the computer host 22 can send a control signal to control the light emitted by the fluorescent sticks 21 to form a special pattern according to the status of the concert, such as the songs sung by the singer and the guests who are present. In this way, it can provide special visual effects and increase the vitality of the concert. Among them, the computer host 22 can send a control signal to the designated fluorescent stick 21 according to the identification code through broadcasting, and can use other fluorescent sticks 21 as The data bridging path transmits the control signal to the specified fluorescent stick 21.

此外,由於電腦主機22可持續更新該些螢光棒21的絕對位置,因此若手持該些螢光棒21的觀眾的位置改變,電腦主機22可控制其它的螢光棒21發光,使形成的圖案能維持不變。 In addition, since the host computer 22 can continuously update the absolute positions of the fluorescent sticks 21, if the position of the audience holding the fluorescent sticks 21 is changed, the computer host 22 can control the other fluorescent sticks 21 to emit light, so that The pattern can remain unchanged.

由上述可知,定位系統2可有效地追蹤該些可移動的螢光棒21,故很適合應用於大型場館之燈光系統,如演唱會等,並可精確控制該些螢光棒21,使位於特定位置發出光線以形成特殊圖案,因此可達到更佳的效能。 From the above, it can be known that the positioning system 2 can effectively track the movable fluorescent sticks 21, so it is very suitable for the lighting systems of large venues, such as concerts, etc., and can accurately control the fluorescent sticks 21 so that Light is emitted at a specific position to form a special pattern, thus achieving better performance.

當然,上述僅為舉例,定位系統2之各元件及其運作方式均可依實際情況改變,本發明並不以此為限。 Of course, the above is only an example, and each element of the positioning system 2 and its operation mode can be changed according to actual conditions, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

In this embodiment, the positioning device may be a tracking device 21a, and each diver may be equipped with a tracking device 21a, and the control device may be a computer host 22.

同樣的,定位系統2可透過可根據該些追蹤裝置21a提供的定位資訊執行相對位置演算法,以計算該些追蹤裝置21a彼此之間的相對位置,進而計算該些追蹤裝置21a的絕對位置。因此,若任一潛水者發生危險時,定位系統2可準確的提供救難人員正確的資訊,以及時對發生危險的潛水者進行救援。 Similarly, the positioning system 2 can perform a relative position algorithm based on the positioning information provided by the tracking devices 21a to calculate the relative positions of the tracking devices 21a to each other, and then calculate the absolute positions of the tracking devices 21a. Therefore, if any of the divers is in danger, the positioning system 2 can accurately provide the correct information of the rescuers and timely rescue the divers who are in danger.

由上述可知,根據本發明之實施例,定位系統不但可應用於大型場館之燈光系統,如演唱會、運動會、選舉造勢大會等,更可應用於體感控制系統、醫學復建系統、潛水安全系統或燈光裝置藝術系統等,因此應用上極為廣泛。 As can be seen from the above, according to the embodiments of the present invention, the positioning system can be applied not only to the lighting systems of large venues, such as concerts, sports meets, electoral contests, etc., but also to somatosensory control systems, medical rehabilitation systems, and diving safety System or lighting installation art system, etc., so it is extremely widely used.
