METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING AN ILLUMINATION DEVICE AND RELATED LIGHTING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- obtaining an image of an illumination device, thereby capturing an illumination pattern generated by the illumination device based on a visible light communication technique;
identifying the illumination pattern based on the image;
determining a unique identification code of the illumination device based on the illumination pattern;
representing the illumination device in a computer-generated image based on the unique identification code; and
controlling the illumination device using a physical gesture-based graphic user interface.

Abstract
A method for controlling an illumination device is provided. The method includes obtaining an image of an illumination device, thereby capturing an illumination pattern generated by the illumination device based on a visible light communication technique. The method also includes identifying the illumination pattern based on the image. The method further includes determining a unique identification code of the illumination device based on the illumination pattern. The method also includes representing the illumination device in a computer-generated image based on the unique identification code. The method further includes controlling the illumination device using a physical gesture-based graphic user interface.
