1. A method for processing data, comprising:
- identifying time signatures generated by a plurality of infra-red (IR) beacons where each of the time signatures includes a unique transmission of an IR signal; and
creating a historical profile for the IR beacons based on the time signatures identified, wherein at least one of the identifying and creating procedures is performed by a processor.
