Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for selective use of light-sensing devices in light-based communication (LCom). In accordance with some embodiments, the disclosed techniques can be used, for example, in determining how and when to utilize a given light-sensitive device, such as a camera or an ambient light sensor, of a receiver device for purposes of detecting the pulsing light of LCom signals transmitted by an LCom-enabled luminaire. In accordance with some embodiments, determination of whether to utilize only a camera, only an ambient light sensor, or a combination thereof in gathering LCom data may be based, in part or in whole, on factors including time, location, and/or context. In some cases, improvements in system resource usage may be realized using the disclosed techniques.
