  • Visible light communication system and method
    Patent number: 10075237
    Abstract: Disclosed are a visible light communication system and a visible light communication method. In this system, a signal transmitter sends a visible light signal, and a signal light receiver capture an image of the visible light signal to recover the visible light signal according to the captured image. The signal receiver includes an image capturing module, an image processing module and a signal recovery module. The method includes: capturing an image of a visible light signal; processing the captured image of the visible light signal; determining whether there is a complete packet according to the processed image; if yes, directly recovering the visible light signal according to the processed image; but if no, executing a packet recovery process according to the processed image of the visible light signal, then obtaining the complete packet and recovering the visible light signal transmitted from the signal transmitter.
