Abstract
Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, computer-/processor-readable media, and other implementations, including a method to process one or more light-based signals that includes determining mobile device data and coarse previous field-of-view (FOV) data representative of pixels of a light-capture device of a mobile device that detected light-based signals from at least one light device located in an area where the mobile device is located, determining, based on the mobile device data and the coarse previous FOV data, predicted one or more pixels of the light-capture device of the mobile device likely to receive light signals from one or more light devices, in the area where the mobile device is located, capable of emitting one or more light-based communications, and activating the predicted one or more pixels of the light-capture device.
