Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for communication between a mobile device and a target device are disclosed. Information of a target device is determined by means of at least one element of a mobile device for providing an optical link with the target device. An optical component of the mobile device is then aligned with an optical component of the target device based on said information determined by the mobile device. The target device can obtain information of relative positioning of the target device and the mobile device determined for the purposes of providing an optical link between the target device and the mobile device and the optical component thereof can be aligned with the optical component of the mobile device based on the information.
