Abstract

A light information receiving method, a method and a unit for the recognition of light-emitting objects are provided. The light information receiving method includes the following steps. A light-emitting object array is captured to obtain a plurality of images, wherein the light-emitting object array includes at least one light-emitting object. A temporal filtering process is performed to the images to recognize a light-emitting object. A light-emitting status of the light-emitting object array is recognized according to the light-emitting object location. A decoding process is performed according to the light-emitting status to output an item of information.
