Abstract:
One variation of a method for automatically mapping light elements in light structures arranged in an assembly includes: defining a sequence of test frames—each specifying activation of a unique subset of light elements in the assembly—executable by the set of light structures; serving the sequence of test frames to the assembly for execution; receiving photographic test images of the assembly, each photographic test image recorded during execution of one test frame by the assembly; for each photographic test image, identifying a location of a particular light element based on a local change in light level represented in the photographic test image, the particular light element activated by the set of light structures according to a test frame during recordation of the photographic test image; and aggregating locations of light elements identified in photographic test images into a virtual map representing positions of light elements within the assembly.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 7 :\n wherein defining the sequence of test frames comprises:\n defining a first test frame comprising a first set of numerical arrays, specifying activation of a first light element in a first light structure within the assembly, and specifying deactivation of remaining light elements in light structures within the assembly; and \n defining a second test frame comprising a second set of numerical arrays, specifying activation of a second light element in a second light structure within the assembly, and specifying deactivation of remaining light elements in light structures within the assembly; \n wherein serving the sequence of test frames to the assembly for execution by the set of light structures comprises:\n at a first time, serving the first test frame to the assembly for execution by the set of light structures to activate the first light element in the first light structure; and \n at a second time succeeding the first time, serving the second test frame to the assembly for execution by the set of light structures to activate the second light element in the second light structure; \n wherein receiving the set of optical test images of the assembly comprises:\n receiving a first optical test image of the assembly recorded by the imaging system at approximately the first time; and \n receiving a second optical test image of the assembly recorded by the imaging system at approximately the second time.
