Patent ID: 11761618

Abstract:
Wearable devices for monitoring light sources, and light fixtures are presented. For instance, a device includes a light detection sensor, a user interface device, and a controller operably coupled to the light detection sensor and the user interface device. The controller configured to: monitor a plurality of light sources for an availability status indication; determine, from the status data availability indication, that status data of the equipment is available from the light source; receive a modulated light signal from the light source; decode the modulated light signal into decoded status data; determine a status of the equipment based on the decoded status data; process the decoded status data to determine a diagnosis of the equipment; and indicate via the user interface device the diagnosis of the equipment and a diagnostic action related thereto. The light fixture includes a light source and a controller operably coupled to the light source, The controller is configured to receive status data from equipment, encode the status data in a modulated light signal, and output the modulated light signal using the light source.
