LiFi is the optical analog of common WiFi, where light is used as the communications carrier instead of wireless RF transmission. Light is more easily physically confined than radio waves, as it does not pass through walls, curtains or other opaque surfaces. Visible Light Communications (VLC) or as it is commonly called, LiFi, allows muchRead more

Eric Rondolat, CEO of Signify, discusses the company’s earnings report.

Inventor of LiFi Harald Haas talks to Philip Mason about the origins of the solution, and why he believes it will solve the problem of finite RF spectrum in a data-hungry world As recent readers of Land Mobile will know, the digital communications sector is currently in a state of high anticipation, waiting for theRead more

Globalworth, an office-focused developer in Poland and Romania, has installed LiFi in its offices in Spektrum Tower, Warsaw. The firm has worked with Signify, formerly known as Philips Lighting, to improve the use of the office buildings managed by the company. Lightwave wireless communication technology, known as LiFi or ‘light fidelity’, is similar to WiFi.Read more

Velmenni is glad to be a part of Light Communications Alliance formed by Global Industry Leaders to promote new wireless technologies enabling Light Communications. Light Communications technologies complement and enhance 5G wireless communications and other radio frequency technologies such as Wi-Fi. By utilising its greater available spectrum, light can be used to deliver larger amounts of dataRead more

Scottish LiFi pioneer pureLiFi has teamed up with communications and lighting leaders to form a global association called the Light Communications Alliance (LCA) with the aim to develop and refine LiFi’s key use cases while driving standards for this emerging industry. Along with pureLiFi, the founding members of the LCA include Nokia, Emirates Integrated TelecommunicationsRead more

  In case you haven’t heard of the term yet, “LiFi” is short for Light Fidelity and refers to the modulation of light in order to wirelessly stream data. It is similar to WiFi as the modulation of radio waves, which is light at an invisible wavelength. LiFi technology is also sometimes referred to asRead more

Signify launches Trulifi: the world’s most reliable, high-speed commercial LiFi systems   Highly reliable, secure, high-speed wireless communication that leverages existing and future lighting infrastructure Aimed at professional markets, including offices, hospitality, retail, industry and healthcare Two new customers announced at launch               Eindhoven, Netherlands – The worlds of lighting and telecommunications converged today. Signify(Euronext: LIGHT), theRead more

In-flight internet — if and when an airline offers it — is often unreliable and slow. Oledcomm wants to take things up a notch by making high-speed LiFi available on Air France and KLM flights. The French tech company will equip a reproduction of a medium-haul plane with LiFiMAX at the International Paris Air Show. Winners ofRead more

Li-Fi stands for Light Fidelity, which is an advanced technique that utilizes the method of light communication set up of radio waves in Wi-Fi technology. It is a dual directional, well networked, and fast paced optical wireless communication technique. This technology utilizes ultraviolet rays, infrared radiation, and visible spectrum for its operation. The thought behindRead more

It is similar to WiFi as the modulation of radio waves, which is light at an invisible wavelength. LiFi technology is also sometimes referred to as “VisibleRead more

When I first read about LiFi (wifi where light is used instead of radio waves), I started imagining a whole new and bright future equipped with potentially hundreds of GHz of available frequency and Terabits flowing to and from my devices. The world would definitely be a much better place, with internet a thousand times fasterRead more

Martyn Wingrove discusses the next-generation light technology that offers better availability, capacity, reliability and security than wifi Wifi’s radio communications signal does not transmit well through steel decks and bulkheads. And while engineers have come up with creative workarounds, overall, improvements have been limited and costs are considerably higher than expected.

Passive and active sensors that detect low-frequency (audio) to the invisible (Radar, Lidar and Thermal) to cameras, will be central to creating autonomous vehicles that yield safer driving. Similarly, outward communications, whether via dynamic signage, audio blasts or some other means, to the humans walking, riding or driving the streets is critical for mobility machinesRead more
