| A method and an apparatus for processing laser point cloud data includes obtaining laser point data to be used by a data receiver comprising an acquisition time; determining a timestamp for representing the acquisition time, and splitting the timestamp into a base timestamp and an offset timestamp; and storing the base timestamp and compressed laser point cloud data. Laser point cloud data output by a laser radar is compressed and comprises only offset timestamps corresponding to respective laser points. The base timestamp and the offset timestamp may be added to obtain the required synchronization precision timestamp, and the data is synchronized. The processing speed of a CPU or GPU for the laser point cloud data is improved while the timestamp precision reaches the precision required by synchronization of the laser point cloud data, and storage space is saved. | ||||||

| In a visual light communication (VLC) or other light based positioning system, a mobile device can detect modulated light emitted by one or more localized artificial lighting devices to obtain an identification (ID) label or code of each lighting device, e.g. that is visible in an image captured by the mobile device camera. The mobile device uses the detected ID code for a lookup in a self-stored or remotely stored table that associates light-source-location information with ID codes, to obtain an estimate of mobile device position. To mitigate against hacking by a third party detecting the ID codes and observing locations to compile its own lookup table, the disclosed examples dynamically alter the assignments of particular ID codes to the lighting devices, while minimizing potential disruption of position determination service for mobile devices due to the changes to ID code assignments. | ||||||
