Abstract
A method (900) of storing object identifiers is disclosed. The method (900) comprises detecting (902) light emitted by a light source (110), which light comprises an embedded code representative of an identifier of an object (120), retrieving (904) the code from the light, retrieving (906) the identifier from the code, receiving (908) a user input indicative of a selection of the object (120), storing (910) the identifier of the object (120) in a memory upon receiving the user input, and changing (912) the color, saturation and/or the intensity of the light emitted by the light source (110) upon receiving the user input.
Claims15
A method of adding an object to a list stored in a memory, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a light detector, light emitted by a light source, which light comprises an embedded code representative of an identifier of the object, the object being associated with the light source,
- retrieving the code from the light,
- retrieving the identifier from the code,
- receiving, via a user interface, a user input indicative of a selection of the object,
- adding the identifier of the object to the list stored in the memory upon receiving the user input, and
- changing, by a controller, the color, saturation and/or the intensity of the light emitted by the light source upon receiving the user input.
A system for adding an object to a list stored in a memory, the system comprising:
- a mobile device comprising:
- a light detector for detecting light emitted by a light source, which light comprises an embedded code representative of an identifier of the object, the object being associated with the light source,
- a processor for retrieving the code from the light and for retrieving the identifier from the code, and
- a user interface for receiving a user input indicative of a selection of the object, wherein the processor is arranged for adding the identifier of the object to the list stored in the memory upon receiving the user input, and
- wherein the system further comprises a controller for changing the color, saturation and/or the intensity of the light emitted by the light source upon receiving the user input.
