Abstract

A visual light communication emitter for a vehicle, arranged to communicate a status of the vehicle, includes a first light emitter arranged to emit flash light which is modulated at a first target frequency in a dedicated non-visible spectrum, and a second light emitter arranged to emit flash light which is modulated at a second target frequency in the dedicated non-visible spectrum. A difference between the first target frequency and the second target frequency is predetermined, so as to authenticate the status of the vehicle.
