Abstract
A method of controlling at least one light source to discourage unwanted behavior at a spectator event comprising a plurality of spectator areas, the method comprising: detecting, based on sensor input received from a sensor at the spectator event, at least one spectator exhibiting unwanted behavior within a first one of the spectator areas; determining a location of the first spectator area; identifying a second one of the spectator areas as being a target of the unwanted behavior and determining a location of the second spectator area; and controlling at least one light source based on the determined locations to increase an amount of glare along at least one line of sight between the first and second spectator areas and thereby discourage the spectator from looking towards the second spectator area to discourage the unwanted behavior.
