Abstract: A communication system includes: a plurality of cameras that generate image data by capturing images; a server that stores the image data generated by each of the plurality of cameras; and a plurality of transmission devices in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of cameras. Each of the plurality of transmission devices transmits light including, as a visible light communication signal, information related to communication for accessing a storage location at which the image data generated by a corresponding one of the plurality of cameras is stored in the server.

Abstract: A transmission method includes: in a first period, causing a light source to emit light having a first luminance; and in a second period, causing the light source to transmit an optical signal by causing the light source to alternately emit light having a second luminance and light having a third luminance lower than the second luminance.

Abstract: An access point includes a first interface that wirelessly communicates using a first band; a second interface that wirelessly communicates using a second band; and a controller that selects one type of request to send (RTS)/clear to send (CTS) control from among three mutually different types using at least one of the first interface and the second interface, and carries out the selected one type of RTS/CTS control with a terminal.

Abstract: A communication system includes one or more chargers and a server capable of communicating with the one or more chargers. The server obtains first information from a first vehicle via a first charger included in the one or more chargers, during charging of the first vehicle by the first charger, and supplies second information based on the first information to a second vehicle via a second charger included in the one or more chargers, during charging of the second vehicle by the second charger.

Abstract: A reproduction apparatus includes circuitry and memory coupled to the circuitry. In operation, the circuitry: obtains a first segment including first subpictures corresponding to points of time and a second segment including second subpictures corresponding to the points of time; combines the first subpictures and the second subpictures to generate access units corresponding to the points of time; and reproduces the access units generated.
