Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein include a light-based communication system. The system includes a plurality of luminaires, in which each of the plurality of luminaires is configured to transmit light-based communication (LCom) signals, and a server communicatively coupled to the plurality of luminaires. The server is configured to assign an identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, transmit the assigned identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, in which each of the plurality of luminaires transmits the assigned identifier via LCom signals, rotate, in response to receiving a trigger signal, the assigned identifier for each of the plurality of luminaires, and transmit the rotated identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, in which each of the plurality of luminaires transmits the rotated identifier via LCom signals.

Abstract: A method for performing an inventory of the hardware components connected to a control unit test system, wherein control units can be tested with the test system in an environment simulated by the test system by means of a model, and wherein the test system comprises at least one computer) and hardware components that are connected to one another by means of at least one network. For at least a portion of the hardware components, in particular of all simulation-specific hardware components, at least one item of component information that uniquely and digitally identifies the hardware component is read therefrom, and all identifying component information that has been read out is stored.
