Wireless communication systems, which rely on radio frequencies (RFs), are widely utilized in various applications, such as mobile communications, radio frequency identification, marine networks, smart farms, and smart homes. Due to their ease of installation, wireless systems offer advantages over wired alternatives. But the deployment of high-frequency radio waves for a communication system can pose potential health risks. To address these concerns, many researchers have explored the use of visible light as a safer alternative to radio frequency communication. In this context, optical camera communication has emerged as a good candidate compared to the RF system. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries and human life by solving complex problems, enabling intelligent automation, and driving advancements in technologies such as smart farms, smart homes, and future internet of things systems. In this study, we recommend a Multiple- Input Multiple-Output Camera On–Off Keying (MIMO C-OOK) modulation that integrates a YOLOv11 for light source detection and tracking and a deep learning network-based decoder algorithm, optimized for long-range and mobility communication scenarios. The proposed approach enhances the conventional C-OOK system by increasing the data rate and transmission range while reducing errors at the receiver. Implementation results show that the proposed approach can achieve reliable communication up to 10 m with minimal errors, even under mobility conditions (3 m/s, equivalent to walking speed), by optimizing camera parameters and employing forward error correction (FEC).
