The invention relates to a structure, and more particularly to a structure capable of receiving an audio signal, processing the audio signal in real time, and converting into a programmable control system.
With the advancement of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for quality of life is beginning to increase, and music playback is an element of the basic quality of life. Therefore, many people play music through speakers, but playing music only through speakers is relatively monotonous, so there are many control systems designed to control the electronic device to produce corresponding action in response to the playback of music. For example, when the control system receives an audio signal, the control system will control the electronic device to generate a light change corresponding to the audio signal, and the conventional control system mainly receives a measured tempo of the audio signal, which is commonly known as musical rhythm (BPM, beats per minute). The control system first needs to capture the complete waveform of the audio signal in the set loop time interval before receiving the measured tempo to generate corresponding action, the control system then calculates the average value of the captured audio signal to obtain the measured tempo, and then controls the electronic device to produce corresponding action according to the measured tempo, so the control system needs to capture the complete waveform in order to be capable of calculating the measured tempo. However, there is a time difference in capturing between generation of the audio signal and the action of the electronic device, which causes the control system being incapable of making the electronic device produce synchronous control effect in real time while the audio signal is generated.

In addition, the second audio transforming module 32 uses the Mel-frequency filter bank filter detection to capture a frequency of the highest energy in the audio energy to generate a second frequency value within one second. After the second audio transforming module 32 generates the second frequency value, the sound processing unit 3 simultaneously captures a musical beat (Hz multiplied by 60 seconds) of the second frequency value for comparing with the second storage data 42 and generates a second control signal S2. The second control signal S2 is transmitted to the control signal unit 5, and the control signal unit 5 controls the light-emitting element to generate a corresponding light flickering rhythm through the second control signal S2, that is, a flickering speed of light source is controlled through the second control signal S2; for example: fast speed flickering light if the data in the second storage data 42 is 134˜196 bpm, normal speed flickering light for 71˜133 bpm, and slow speed flickering light for 1˜70 bpm. When a musical beat (Hz multiplied by 60 seconds) of the second frequency value is 50 bpm, the sound processing unit 3 compares and determines that the musical beat (Hz multiplied by 60 seconds) of the second frequency value falls within the range of 1˜70 bpm of the second storage data 42, so the control signal unit controls the light-emitting element to generate a slow speed flickering light.
In addition, the audio energy module 33 of the sound processing unit 3 captures the audio energy and obtains an audio energy value. After the audio energy module 33 generates the audio energy value, the sound processing unit 3 simultaneously captures the audio energy value, compares the audio energy value with the third storage data 43, and generates a third control signal S3. The third control signal S3 is transmitted to the control signal unit 5, and the control signal unit 5 controls the light-emitting element to generate a corresponding light brightness through the third control signal S3, that is, a brightness of light source is controlled through the third control signal S3; for example: high light brightness if the data in the third storage data 43 is 70˜115db, normal light brightness for 40˜76db, and low light brightness for 3˜42db. When the third frequency value is 59db, the sound processing unit 3 compares and determines that the third frequency value falls within the range of 40˜76db of the third storage data 43, so the control signal unit 5 controls the light-emitting element to generate a normal light brightness.
Thereby, the sound processing unit 3 of the control system 1 is capable of processing the audio signal in real time when the audio playback device 8 generates the audio signal, and performing transformation through self-programmed lighting effects, and controlling the electronic device 7 to generate corresponding light source color, flickering speed, and light source brightness within one second, so that the electronic device 7 is capable of instantaneously generating a light source effect synchronized with the audio signal.
