CALL FOR CamCom APPLICATIONS
Contributions are requested for the IEEE P802.15 LED ID Study Group for applications of Camera Communication (CamCom) technology in which LED lighting sources are data modulated with a waveform that can be received and processed by a camera image sensor or detector.
The focus of the Study Group is to draft a PAR and 5C for a PHY amendment to IEEE 802.15.7 for implementing optical Camera communications for enabling scalable data rate, positioning/localization, and message broadcasting using the flash, display and image sensor as possible transmitting and receiving devices.
for the detection (recovery or demodulation) of modulated data.
RELEASE DATE: November, 2013
DUE DATE: Presentations at November 2013 meeting

IEEE P802.15 LED ID Interest Group is chartered to study emerging applications of LED modulated lights with interest in transitioning to a Study Group in anticipation of creating a Project Authorization Request (PAR) and Five Criteria (5C) utilizing the camera image sensor as the receiver. This Call for Applications (CFA) solicits data which will help in the creation of the Study Group and hence the PAR and 5C.
The following is a list of some CamCom characteristics which may be leveraged in a particular application.
· The receiver is the image sensor associated with a camera. The objective is to enable the reception of data modulated light without making any hardware modifications to the camera enabled platform.
· The lens associated with the camera offers spatial separation of light sources; that is, the camera can resolve individual LED lights provided the angular separation between the lights is not too small. The ability to do spatial separation opens up the possibility of doing MIMO data transmissions.
· There have been a number of CamCom demonstrates uploaded to YouTube, using different modulation and detection methods, as listed below.
a) Under-sampled Frequency Shifted ON-OFF Keying (UFSOOK) (Intel Labs)

b) Nyquist Sampled Picapicamera (Casio)

c) Rolling Shutter Sampling (PureVLC)
