    摘要: Systems an methods are provided that disclose providing a positioning service for devices based on light received from one or more light sources. This light based positioning service uses light information transmitted by each light source to determine the position of the device. The positioning information can include three dimension position information in a building that can then be used to deliver services and information to a mobile device. The content delivered to a mobile device can include multimedia, text, audio, and/or pictorial information. The positioning information along with other location or positioning information can be used in providing augmented reality or location aware services. The light sources can be independent beacons that broadcast information in visible light at a rate that is undetectable by the human eye. Content can be retrieved from a server over a communications connection.

    摘要: In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method for demodulating a modulated light signal in a light based positioning system. In some embodiments, the method includes receiving a modulated light signal at a device, the modulated light signal transmitting an arbitrary identifier of a light source, recording the modulated light signal using a rolling shutter image sensor to create a raw image having alternating spaced apart stripes, subtracting background information from the raw image to create an isolated image, taking a Fourier transform of an image representative of the isolated image to calculate a Fourier transformed signal, and determining the arbitrary identifier of the light source based on the Fourier transformed signal.

    摘要: In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method of detecting information transmitted by a light source in a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor by detecting a frequency of light pulses produced by the light source. In some embodiments, the method includes capturing on the CMOS image sensor with a rolling shutter an image in which different portions of the CMOS image sensor are exposed at different points in time; detecting visible distortions that include alternating stripes in the image; measuring a width of the alternating stripes present in the image; and selecting a symbol based on the width of the alternating stripes present in the image to recover information encoded in the frequency of light pulses produced by the light source captured in the image.

    摘要: An advertising system and method in which an advertising mural is segmented and portions of the advertising mural are formed on each one of a plurality of laterally aligned overhead stowage bin doors in a commercial aircraft. Each segment of the advertising mural is formed on an independent, strippable laminate panel that is secured to its associated stowage bin door so as to be generally non-removable therefrom without the aide of a heat gun or like implement. Changing the advertising mural involves using a heat gun or like implement to remove each laminate panel from its associated bin door. New laminate panels collectively forming a different advertising mural can then be individually applied to the bin doors. Accordingly, the same bin doors can be re-used to present a different advertising mural.

    摘要: An advertising system and method in which an advertising mural is segmented and portions of the advertising mural are formed on each one of a plurality of laterally aligned overhead stowage bin doors in a commercial aircraft. Each segment of the advertising mural is furthermore integrally formed with its associated stowage bin door so as to be non-removable therefrom. Thus, an advertising mural can be changed simply and quickly by removing the stowage bin doors making up the mural and replacing them with a different set of stowage bin doors having a different advertising mural formed thereon.
