Abstract
An electronic device employing optical communications including a light cell array, each light cell individually operable to output a controllable collimated light beam, the light beams of the light cell array to form a data encoded optical output signal to transmit to a destination electronic device. A photocell array receives a data encoded optical input signal from the destination electronic device, each photocell to provide an output signal representative of an amount of energy received from the optical input signal. A controller measures an overlap of the optical input signal with the photocell array based on the output signals of the array of photocells, and adjusts a position of the photocell array based on the measured overlap to align the photocell array with the with the optical input signal.
