On human to database interface based on visible light communication

Abstract

This paper provides a Visible Light Communication (VLC) based system design allowing a smart warehouse management. Goods in the warehouse use VLC transmitters, whose signal is captured by smart glasses and data about stored articles is presented to the user thanks to the Augmented Reality (AR). The system takes advantage of new technologies of the Internet of Things (IoT) in order to facilitate human to database interface applied to warehouse management. In this article, a proof of concept implementation of proposed system using OpenCV is provided.
