LED LIGHT COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An LED light and communication system comprising:
- at least one optical transceiver, the optical transceiver comprising;
a light support having a plurality of light emitting diodes and at least one photodetector attached thereto, the light emitting diodes receiving power from a power source, the plurality of light emitting diodes generating illumination observable to the unaided eyes of an individual, said illumination comprising a plurality of flashes of illumination, said flashes of illumination not being observable to the unaided eyes of an individual;
a processor in communication with the light emitting diodes and the at least one photodetector, the processor being constructed and arranged to regulate said plurality of flashes of illumination into at least one communication signal wherein the at least one communication signal comprises at least one data packet.

Abstract
An LED light and communication system includes at least one optical transceiver, the optical transceiver including a light support and a processor. The light support has a plurality of light emitting diodes and at least one photodetector attached thereto, the light emitting diodes receiving power from a power source. The processor is in communication with the light emitting diodes and the at least one photodetector, the processor capable of illuminating the light emitting diodes to simultaneously create at least one first light signal, and at least one second light signal, the first light signal being observable to the unaided eyes of an individual and the second light signal not being observable to the unaided eyes of the individual. The second light signal includes at least one data packet. The at least one data packet comprises global positioning system (GPS) location information.
