Telecom startup Velmenni has received a grant from the ministry of defence (MoD) under the Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX) initiative for its innovative Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) technology.
LiFi (light fidelity) is a bidirectional wireless system that transmits data via LED or infrared light.
It was first unveiled in 2011 and, unlike wifi, which uses radio frequency, LiFi technology only needs a light source with a chip to transmit an internet signal through light waves.
What is advantage over today’s wireless network?
- This is an extraordinary advance over today's wireless networks. LiFi multiplies the speed and bandwidth of wifi, 3G and 4G.
- The latter have a limited capacity and become saturated when the number of users surfing increases, causing them to crash, reducing speeds and even interrupting the connection.
- With LiFi, however, its band frequency of 200,000 GHz, versus the maximum 5 GHz of the wifi, is 100 times faster and can transmit much more information per second.
THIS IS HOW LIFI TECHNOLOGY WILL CHANGE OUR LIVES:
