Disney researchers last week demonstrated Linux Light Bulbs -- a protocol for a communications system that transmits data using visible light communication, or VLC, technology. The key to the project's success was the Linux software that enabled the signals to work with the Internet Protocol. The VLC-enabled Bulbs served as broadcast beacons, which made it possible to detect the location of objects on the network and to communicate with them.
