Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an apparatus, a system and a method of locating a location of a portable device using coded light, the portable device comprising an image sensor and an inertial measurement unit, the method comprising: obtaining a first image comprising the coded light source from the image sensor and substantially simultaneously obtaining orientation information indicative of the orientation of the portable device or the image sensor from the inertial measurement unit; obtaining light source specific information in the form of: an identifier that allows retrieval of a three-dimensional location of the coded light source or a three-dimensional location of the coded light source; and computing the location of the portable device or image sensor based on the orientation information, a predetermined height estimate of the portable device or image sensor and the light source specific information.
