Cyber Life Electronic Networking and Commerce Operating Exchange

Abstract

A cyber-life electronic commerce and system control device is disclosed having a three dimensional or other image of an area stored on a server. An operating exchange interfaces with the image to enable an individual to manipulate virtual control elements within the operating exchange. A visible light embedded communication system is used as the backbone to communicate commands from the operating exchange to a building operating system control item in order to alter the setting or status of a building operating system. The operating exchange may also be used by a consumer to virtually explore a cyber-retail location and to engage in commercial activities.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A control device comprising:
 a server, said server comprising an image of an area and an operating exchange, said operating exchange comprising at least one control element;   an interface device in communication with the operating exchange and said at least one control element; and   at least one building system, said at least one building system comprising at least one control item, said at least one control item being in communication with said operating exchange,   wherein at least one command is communicated from said interface device to said operating exchange, and wherein said operating exchange communicates said at least one command to said at least one control item modifying a setting or status for said at least one building system.   
     
     
         2 . The control device according to  claim 1 , wherein said interface device is a camera. 
     
     
         3 . The control device according to  claim 1 , said interface device comprising transceiver glasses. 
     
     
         4 . The control device according to  claim 1 , said interface device comprising sensors. 
     
     
         5 . The control device according to  claim 1 , said image comprising a three dimensional image. 
     
     
         6 . The control device according to  claim 1 , said server comprising recognition software. 
     
     
         7 . The control device according to  claim 6 , said recognition software being selected from the group consisting of gesture-recognition, posture-recognition, eye movement recognition, hand movement recognition, facial recognition, voice recognition, motion recognition, image recognition and head movement recognition in any combination. 
     
     
         8 . The control device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a visible light embedded communication network, said visible light embedded communication network comprising at least one light emitting diode light fixture comprising at least one light emitting diode, at least one photodetector, and at least one controller constructed and arranged to provide light in the visible spectrum, said light in the visible spectrum comprising pulses of light occurring at a frequency which is not detectable by the unaided eyes of an individual, said pulses of light comprising at least one embedded communication or said command. 
     
     
         9 . The control device according to  claim 8 , said at least one light emitting diode light fixture comprising at least one microphone and at least one speaker. 
     
     
         10 . The control device according to  claim 8 , further comprising at least one facility control unit in communication with and disposed between said at least one light emitting diode light fixture and said server. 
     
     
         11 . The control device according to  claim 10 , said server comprising at least one unique identifier. 
     
     
         12 . The control device according to  claim 11 , said at least one control item comprising a unique identifier. 
     
     
         13 . The control device according to  claim 12 , said at least one light emitting diode light fixture comprising a unique identifier. 
     
     
         14 . The control device according to  claim 13 , said at least one light emitting diode and said at least one photodetector each comprising a unique identifier. 
     
     
         15 . The control device according to  claim 14 , said at least one controller comprising a unique identifier. 
     
     
         16 . The control device according to  claim 15 , said at least one facility control unit comprising a unique identifier. 
     
     
         17 . The control device according to  claim 16 , said interface device comprising a unique identifier.
