Zusammenfassung:Embodiments herein provide an infrastructure article (101) and a method thereof for synchronizing flickers of infrastructure articles in a mesh network. The method includes detecting expiration of a synchronization timer counted by a real-time clock (RTC), and determining whether a charge level of a battery (105) of the infrastructure article (101) satisfies a battery charge threshold. When a charging level of a battery (105) of the infrastructure article (101) meets a battery charging threshold, the method comprises establishing a connection with other infrastructure articles in the mesh network and/or an infrastructure article server (200) and sending a time to all other infrastructure articles in the mesh network that synchronizes flicker of the at least one light source (106). When a charge level of a battery (105) of the infrastructure article (101) does not meet a battery charge threshold, the method includes resetting the synchronization timer and initiating a counting of the synchronization timer. 本文的
