SBVLC: Secure Barcode-Based Visible Light Communication for Smartphones

Anjaly Raj ^[2] | Vidya N ^[4]

Abstract: Short range communication technologies are the emerging technology in mobile phone based applications. One of the technologies used in short range communication is Near Field Communication (NFC). These short range communication technologies are used in mobile advertisement, data sharing and contactless payments. For this purposes 2D barcodes are being introduced in mobile applications. Since every front camera enabled mobile phones can able to scan 2D barcodes. In this paper we are going to implement 2D barcodes in mobile phone applications which are very helpful for mobile payments and personal identification. With the help of visual light communication 2D barcodes are displayed on the smart phone screens when we use barcodes. In this paper we designed a color 2D barcode for providing better security features with the help of visible light communication (VLC) between smart phones. In this paper we are going to develop a secure 2D color barcode which secure private information during private data sharing process. Finally our experimental result shows that our proposed system provides better security when compared to normal 2D barcode schemes.
