Poster: Real-time material and texture recognition using visible light communication

In response to the challenges presented by conventional material and texture recognition methods, our research introduces a system using visible light communication (VLC) technology. This approach provides a non-contact, non-destructive, dual-functional solution, overcoming the limitations of cost, safety, and environmental adaptability associated with traditional methods. Through a comprehensive design integrating hardware and software, our system utilizes VLC for precise and efficient recognition. Extensive testing confirms its effectiveness, achieving 97.7% accuracy in material identification and 93.8% in texture detection. This study highlights VLC’s potential in enhancing automated recognition systems across various applications.
