Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that obtain information from a first electronic device (e.g., to improve interactions for a CGR environment). In some implementations at a second electronic device having a processor, event camera data is obtained corresponding to modulated light (e.g., light including an information signal in its modulation) emitted by an optical source on the first electronic device and received at an event camera. The second electronic device is able to identify information from the first electronic device based on detecting a modulation pattern of the modulated light based on the event camera data. In some implementations, second electronic device is the same electronic device that has the event camera (e.g., laptop) or a different electronic device that receives the event data (e.g., a server receiving the event data from a laptop computer).
