Abstract
An apparatus for facilitating light based communications includes a transceiver, a processing device, and a user interface device. The transceiver includes light emitters and a light receiver. The light emitters emit light. The light receiver is configured for detecting an incoming light signal. The processing device is operatively coupled with the transceiver. The processing device is configured for generating an incoming coded message based on the detecting, decoding the incoming coded message into an incoming message, provisioning the incoming message based on the decoding, obtaining an outgoing message, encoding the outgoing message based on the obtaining of the outgoing message, generating an encoded outgoing message based on the encoding, and generating a command for the transceiver based on the encoding of the encoded outgoing message. Further, at least one of the light emitters is configured for emitting an outgoing light signal based on the command.
