The people with visual impairment have problems in mobility and orientation, especially in the outdoor environment. Recently, traffic lights systems, which is a facility where someone crosses do not support visually implaired people so they still need help from others in crossing the road. In this study, a system that integrates traffic lights is implemented using Visible Light Communication (VLC) technology, where the VLC transmitter is mounted on a traffic light, and the VLC receiver is installed as a wearable device that can be used with the audio information signal. The measurement  is done by considering the use of color filters. The measurement results show that the transmitter system has been able to send signals with audio frequencies from 300 Hz to 4000 Hz. Besides that, receiving an information signal consisting of a audio signal from a transmitter mounted on a traffic light with a red, yellow and green color filter can be received by a VLC receiver that is placed on a visually impaired person of good quality with the signal voltage received above 4 Vpp, where the use of a yellow filter shows the best signal reception results with a voltage output of 5.00 Vpp at a frequency of 2400 Hz compared to other color filters.ABSTRAK: Penyandang tuna netra memiliki masalah dalam hal mobilitas dan orientasi, khususnya di lingkungan luar (outdoor). Pada sistem yang terdapat pada lampu lalu lintas (traffic light) yang merupakan fasilitas dimana seseorang menyebrang saat ini belum mendukung penyandang tuna netra, sehingga sampai saat ini masih membutuhkan bantuan orang lain dalam menyebrang jalan. Pada penelitian ini, sebuah sistem yang diintegrasikan pada lampu lalu lintas diimplementasikan menggunakan teknologi Visible Light Communication (VLC), dimana VLC transmitter dipasang pada lampu lalu lintas dan VLC receiver dipasang sebagai wearable device dengan sinyal informasi suara digunakan oleh penyandang tunanetra sehingga dapat menerima informasi mengenai kondisi lampu lalu lintas pada saat itu. Pengujian sistem dilakukan dengan mempertimbangkan penggunaan filter berwarna. Hasil pengukuran menunjukan bahwa sistem transmitter telah dapat mengirimkan sinyal dengan frekuensi suara dari 300 Hz sampai 4000 Hz. Disamping itu, penerimaan sinyal informasi berupa sinyal suara dari transmitter yang terpasang pada lampu lalu lintas dengan filter warna Merah, Kuning dan Hijau  telah dapat diterima oleh receiver yang ditempatkan pada penyandang tuna netra dengan kualitas baik dengan tegangan sinyal yang diterima diatas 4 Vpp, dimana penggunaan filter warna kuning menunjukan hasil penerimaan sinyal yang paling baik dengan tegangan output 5,00 Vpp pada frekuensi 2400 Hz dibandingkan dibandingkan penggunaan filter warna lainnya

This design is based on Visible Light Communication Technology, to achieve outdoor visible light communications and image recognition etc. through traffic lights. It will play a role on promoting the utilization of traffic lights. The system uses a LED dot matrix to imitate the traffic light, loading QR Code information on the LED dot matrix and then transporting it in a very high-speed flashing. In receiving terminal, first, webcam OV7670 collects information which from the LED dot matrix, then conveys the picture to FPGA, which is the processor. FPGA will handle the picture by gray scale processing, medium filtering and binary processing at last. Thus, the picture from the LED dot matrix will change to ‘0’ and ‘1’ in binary area. Secondly, as there’s a relationship between LED dot matrix and webcam pixels, we can count how many pixels represent one LED. Finally, we can decode the QR Code based on its own style, and display the final result on the TFT screen.

In this paper, a novel bidirectional underwater visible light communication (BiUVLC) is proposed. The VLC transmitter transmits an information signal using the one of RGB LED through the water tank that represents an underwater environment and then is received by VLC receiver via a color filter. The color LEDs and color filters are utilized in bidirectional systems. The single link is created by a LED on the transmitter and the color filter on the receiver with the same color which represents a single wavelength. The performance of the proposed BiUVLC system was evaluated via implementations. The experimental result shows that the transmitted signal undergoes attenuation over the underwater optical channel and the pair of the blue wavelength in link 1 and the green wavelength in link 2 have the best performance than the other wavelength pair. In the crosstalk measurement, the red wavelength color is the worst in the underwater environment.

Kegiatan masyarakat di era sekarang yang serba digital menggunakan teknologi tanpa kabel (wireless). Teknologi tanpa kabel menjadi andalan komunikasi, namun seiring perkembangann zaman, ada sebuah teknologi tanpa kabel dengan memanfaatkan cahaya tampak.  Teknologi ini dikenal dengan istilah visible light communication (VLC). Sistem VLC terdiri dari bagian transmitter dan receiver. Transmitter berupa komponen-komponen elektronika yang terintegrasi dengan cahaya tampak sebagai media transmisi. Pada penelitian ini membuat bagian transmitter dan receiver untuk komunikasi audio. Cahaya tampak sebagai media transmisi menggunakan laser led karena cahaya dari laser led ini lebih fokus dan pancaran cahayanya lebih jauh dibandingkan dengan yang lain. Sedangkan di sisi receiver menggunakan solar panel sebagai penerima sinyal informasi yang dikirimkan. Penelitian ini berhasil membuat sebuah sistem komunikasi audio berbasis visible light communication. Variasi jarak antara transmitter dan receiver mempengaruhi kualitas suara yang diterima. Pada jarak 500 cm kualitas suara yaitu 99,2 dB pada kondisi gelap dan 99,1 dB kondisi terang. Perubahan sudut pancar transmitter terhadap receiver juga mempengaruhi hasil kualitas suara. Kualitas suara terbaik pada sudut 900 di kondisi terang dengan jarak 50 cm sebesar 97,9 dB sedangkan di kondisi gelap dengan jarak 50 cm  pada sudut 1000 sebesar 98,1 dB.   Abstract The people activities in today's digital era use wireless technology. Wireless technology has become the mainstay of communication, but along with the times, there is a wireless technology that uses visible light. This technology is known as visible light communication (VLC). The VLC system consist of transmitter and receiver. Transmitters are electronic components that are integrated with visible light as a transmission medium. In this study, the transmitter and receiver are made for audio communication. Visible light as a transmission medium uses an LED laser because the light from this LED laser is more focused and the light beam is farther away than the others. While on the receiver side using a solar panel as a receiver of the information signal that is sent. This research succeeded in making an audio communication system based on visible light communication. Variations in the distance between the transmitter and receiver affect the quality of the received sound. At a distance of 500 cm in dark conditions, the sound quality is 99.2 dB in light conditions and 99.1 dB. Changes in the beam angle of tranmitter to receiver also affect the sound quality. The best sound quality at an angle of 900 in bright conditions with a distance of 50 cm is 97.9 dB while in dark conditions with a distance of 50 cm at an angle of 1000 is 98.1 dB.

According to the low positioning precision and high cost of traditional vehicle positioning technologies, and combined advantages of the newly arisen visible light communication like no extra transmitter needed, no electromagnetic interference and free license, this paper proposed a vehicle positioning method based on traffic light, which could generate the vehicle's position with the time difference of arrival of the signal light. Also its improved methods based on plan revolution theory were discussed to overcome the deficient in non-coplanar condition and improve the positioning precision. Simulation results showed that these methods, with simple computation and low implementation cost, could realize a real-time high-precision positioning performance, and could meet the requirements of the intelligence transportation system.
