  • Patent number: 12041704
    Abstract: A synchronous control system is provided. A transmission device 1 includes a reception unit 11 that receives a control signal for a lighting device in a live event site and a transmission unit 13 that transmits, to a reception device in a live viewing site, the control signal to which an output time is appended. The output time is obtained by adding a predetermined period of time to a receipt time at which the control signal is received.
