Abstract:
An information communication method which enables communication using a variety of devices includes: a step (SK91) in which a light-exposure time for an image sensor is set such that a plurality of bright lines corresponding to a plurality of light-exposure lines included in the image sensor are generated, in accordance with the brightness change of an object, in an image obtained by using the image sensor to photograph the object; a step (SK92) in which a bright-line image including the plurality of bright lines is acquired by using the image sensor to photograph, for the set light-exposure time, the object having a changing brightness; and a step (SK93) in which information is acquired by demodulating data identified by patterns of the plurality of bright lines included in the acquired bright-line image. In step (SK92), for each of the plurality of light-exposure lines, light exposure is started at sequentially different times, and light exposure is started after a prescribed idling time has elapsed since the completion of light exposure for an adjacent light-exposure line adjacent to the current light-exposure line.

An information communication method, which enables communication using a plurality of devices, and in which brightness is changed to transmit signals, includes: a determination step (SK11) in which a brightness change pattern is determined by modulating a signal to be transmitted; and a transmission step (SK12) in which the brightness of a plurality of light-emission bodies is changed in accordance with the determined brightness change pattern to transmit the signal to be transmitted. The plurality of light-emission bodies are arranged upon a surface such that a non-brightness-change area where brightness is not changed and which is outside the plurality of light-emission bodies, said area being on the surface having the plurality of light-emission bodies arranged thereon, does not intersect the surface along the horizontal direction and/or the vertical direction of the surface via spaces between the plurality of light-emission bodies.

Abstract:
An information processing program causes a computer to execute: encoding information to be transmitted, to determine a luminance change frequency SA11; and outputting a signal of the determined luminance change frequency to cause a light emitter to change in luminance according to the determined luminance change frequency to transmit the information SA 12. In the encoding SA11, each of a first frequency and a second frequency different from the first frequency is determined as the luminance change frequency. In the outputting SA12, each of a signal of the first frequency and a signal of the second frequency is output as the signal of the determined luminance change frequency, to cause the light emitter to change in luminance according to the first frequency during a first time and change in luminance according to the second frequency during a second time different from the first time after the first time elapses.
