Abstract
Aspects of this technical solution can include a first layer having a first region and a second region, the first region and the second region having a first transmissivity property corresponding to a first portion of a spectrum of light and a second portion of the spectrum of light, having the first transmissivity property, and a second layer disposed over the first layer and having a third region and a fourth region, the third region and the fourth region having a second transmissivity property corresponding to the first portion of the spectrum of light and the second portion of the spectrum of light.
Claims20
An apparatus, comprising:
- a first region and a second region, the first region and the second region having a first transmissivity property corresponding to a first portion of a spectrum of light and a second portion of the spectrum of light;
- and
- a third region and a fourth region, the third region and the fourth region having a second transmissivity property corresponding to the first portion of the spectrum of light and the second portion of the spectrum of light.
A method of detection of codes in a plurality of spectra of light, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a sensor of a vehicle configured to detect a first portion of a spectrum of light, a first region and a second region of an object, the first region and the second region having a first transmissivity property corresponding to the first portion of a spectrum of light and a second portion of the spectrum of light;
- and
- decoding, by a processor, a first encoding defined by the first region and the second region, the first encoding corresponding to a first machine-readable code visible in the first portion of the spectrum of light and invisible in the second portion of the spectrum of light.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a first layer having a first region and a second region, the first region and the second region having a first transmissivity property corresponding to a first portion of a spectrum of light and a second portion of the spectrum of light;
- and
- a second layer disposed over the first layer and having a third region and a fourth region, the third region and the fourth region having a second transmissivity property corresponding to the first portion of the spectrum of light and the second portion of the spectrum of light;
- wherein the first layer defines a first encoding, and the second layer defines a second encoding, at least one of the first encoding or the second encoding including metadata associated with the first encoding.
