Abstract

Disclosed is an apparatus based on wireless optical communication, which may include: a light source outputting light; an optical circulator outputting the light in at least one direction; a collimator converting and outputting the light output through the optical circulator into a parallel beam; an optical regulator reflecting the light converted into the parallel beam, and transferring the reflected light to an external apparatus, and receiving the reflected light from the external apparatus, the reflected light being light output by reversely reflecting the light by the external apparatus; an optical detector converting the reflected light into an electric signal to generate an optical signal; and a controller analyzing the optical signal and acquiring an intensity of the reflected light, and calculating central coordinate information of the external apparatus based on the intensity value of the reflected light.
