Abstract
A system is configured to receive a geographical indicator, to determine at least one light beacon (61-69) based on the geographical indicator, to output information (82) identifying the at least one light beacon, to receive a selection of one or more (61-68) of the at least one light beacon, to receive a content item or a reference to a content item in relation to the one or more light beacons, and to associate the content item with the one or more light beacons. The association causes the one or more light beacons to transmit data via visible light which enables reproduction of the content item.
Claims15
A system for associating content with one or more light beacons, comprising a server, the server comprising:
- at least one input interface for receiving input;
- an output interface for providing output;
- and
- at least one processor configured:
- to receive a geographical indicator,
- to determine a set of at least one light beacon based on said geographical indicator, each of said at least one light beacon being configured to transmit data via visible light,
- to use said output interface to output information identifying said set of at least one light beacon,
- to use said at least one input interface to receive a selection of one or more light beacons of said set of at least one light beacon,
- to use said at least one input interface to receive a content item or a reference to a content item to be associated with said one or more light beacons, and
- to associate said content item with said one or more light beacons, said association causing said one or more light beacons to transmit data via visible light which enables reproduction of said content item.
A method of associating content with one or more light beacons, comprising:
- receiving a geographical indicator;
- determining a set of at least one light beacon based on said geographical indicator, each of said at least one light beacon being configured to transmit data via visible light;
- outputting information identifying said at least one light beacon;
- receiving a selection of one or more light beacons of said set of at least one light beacon;
- receiving a content item or a reference to a content item to be associated with said one or more light beacons;
- and
- associating said content item with said one or more light beacons, said association causing said one or more light beacons to transmit data via visible light which enables reproduction of said content item.
