Providing high data rates is one of the drivers in visible light communication (VLC) systems. This paper introduces a VLC system that employs transmitters diversity with beam steering to provide high data rates. In this work, red, yellow,…

Visible light communication (VLC) utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit wireless data. A VLC network can also be used to localize mobile users in indoor environments, where the global positioning system (GPS) signals are weak.…

This paper proposes an indoor visible light communication (VLC) system with multiple transmitters and receivers. Due to diffusivity of LED light beams, photodiode receive signals from many directions. We use one concave and one convex lens…

Computer vision is used in this work to detect lighting elements in buildings with the goal of improving the accuracy of previous methods to provide a precise inventory of the location and state of lamps. Using the framework developed in…

Optical beam center position on an array of detectors is an important (hidden) parameter that is essential not only from a tracking perspective, but is also important for optimal detection of Pulse Position Modulation symbols in free-space…

In this paper, we present a dataset capturing diverse visual data formats that target varying luminance conditions. While RGB cameras provide nourishing and intuitive information, changes in lighting conditions potentially result in…

The world is often stricken by catastrophic disasters. On-demand drone-mounted visible light communication (VLC) networks are suitable for monitoring disaster-stricken areas for leveraging disaster-response operations. The concept of an…

In many fields of robotics, knowing the relative position and orientation between two sensors is a mandatory precondition to operate with multiple sensing modalities. In this context, the pair LiDAR-RGB cameras offer complementary features:…

Luminosity correlations of long Gamma-ray bursts (GRB) are extensively proposed as an effective complementarity to trace the Hubble diagram of Universe at high redshifts, which is of great importance to explore properties of dark energy.…

In increasing number of electronic devices implement wideband radio technologies for localization and sensing purposes, like ultra-wideband (UWB). Such radio technologies benefit from a large number of antennas, but space for antennas is…

Large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) have been increasingly used in robotics for high-level cognition, but their use for low-level cognition, such as interpreting sensor information, remains underexplored. In…

Novel radio map estimation in optical wireless communications is proposed based on ML prediction rather than simulation techniques. ML training is performed on simulation and experimentally generated synthetic data and in both cases,…

Visible Light Communication (VLC) technology using light emitting diodes (LEDs) has been gaining increasing attention in recent years as it is appealing for a wide range of applications such as indoor positioning. Orthogonal frequency…

In this paper, localization using narrowband communication signals are considered in the presence of fading channels with time of arrival measurements. When narrowband signals are used for localization, due to existing hardware constraints,…

We provide a simple method and relevant theoretical analysis for efficiently estimating higher-order lp distances. While the analysis mainly focuses on l4, our methodology extends naturally to p = 6,8,10..., (i.e., when p is even).…

We propose a self-supervised approach for visual robot detection and heading estimation by learning to estimate the states (OFF or ON) of four independent robot-mounted LEDs. Experimental results show a median image-space position error of…

This paper considers the Cram\`er-Rao lower Bound (CRB) for the source localization problem in the near field. More specifically, we use the exact expression of the delay parameter for the CRB derivation and show how this exact CRB can be…
