Abstract
A system and method for managing large numbers of computing devices in a data center are disclosed. The computing devices are configured to flash their indicator lights in a pattern that encodes a device ID, and an image capture device such as a mobile phone or tablet captures the flashes in a series of images/video of the data center. The images/video are processed to create a three-dimensional (3D) model of the data center with computing device IDs positioned therein. The 3D model, including correctly positioned device ID indicators, can be rendered for the user of the mobile device to enable the user to more easily identify computing device locations.
