Airline travelers would be able to enjoy high-speed connectivi-ty using Li-Fi LED lights.

Li-Fi is a sustainable wireless access technology that uses LED lights to connect users to a high-speed network connection. Oxford researchers have reportedly achieved bi-directional speeds of 224 Gbps. That’s the equivalent of downloading 18 1.5 movies per second. The following represent just a few possible use-cases of the new technology.

Li-Fi Inventor Harald Haas remains optimistic about the prospect of connecting smart clothes and jewelry with LED Li-Fi lights.

Unlike Wi-Fi’s RF frequency, Li-Fi’s visible light spectrum can travel underwater. Li-Fi will bring high-speed connectivity to oceanic environments.

APPLICATIONS

RETAILLi-Fi supports LED-based indoor positioning technology which can not only assist cus-tomers in finding their way around a retail environment, but customers can also receive relevant product information such as sales items via their smart phones.

Lights illuminating objects can provide additional media-rich information about objects illuminated with Li-Fi LED lights.

MUSEUMS

Cellular network signals are dangerous in petrochem-ical plants due to an antennas’ ability to cause sparks or electrical explosions. LED Li-Fi lights do not pose the same risk and will be able to provide Internet access to these types of environments.

Li-Fi does not only provide high-speed connectivity to pedestrians via street lamps, but also allows automobiles with Li-Fi enabled headlights to communicate with Li-Fi traffic lights to improve real-time traffic updates.
