1. A system comprising:

  • a plurality of solid-state luminaires, including;

    a first solid-state luminaire configured to emit a first pulsing light signal encoded with first data via a first color of light and a second pulsing light signal encoded with second data via a second color of light; and

    a second solid-state luminaire neighboring the first solid-state luminaire and configured to emit the first pulsing light signal encoded with the first data via the first color of light and the second pulsing light signal encoded with the second data via the second color of light; and

    at least one controller configured to control light emitted by the plurality of solid-state luminaires such that neighboring solid-state luminaires in the plurality of luminaires emit light of different colors at the same time,wherein the first data encoded in the first pulsing light signal and the second data encoded in the second pulsing light signal are transmitted to a receiver, and the receiver is able to separate the first data and the second data.
