Li-Fi tested for the 1st time in real world, Proves to be 100 times faster than Wi-Fi






Dreams are not limited & expecting the dream to come as an excellent output is how we have to see.Its been proven that the Wi-Fi alternative tech, Li-Fi, has finally been tested in a real world setting, where it was reportedly able to send data at speeds 100 times faster than current Wi-Fi tech. Harald Haas from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland invented Li-Fi in 2011. It works like a Morse code of flickering light that is received as binary codes. "Although the use of light in order to transmit data can be limited in comparison to radio waves, there is a great amount of possibilities that can be developed with the proper use of this technology". Li-Fi could allow users to access the Internet via LED light bulbs in households or offices. It is called Li-Fi - a faster, low cost, and environment-friendly internet system.


According to IBTimes, Estonian startup Velmenni, which has developed smart LED bulbs that can implement Li-Fi tech, is testing the tech in offices and industrial settings.During pilots tests, Velmeni was able to send data through the Li-Fi touting light bulbs at up to 1Gbps, which basically equates to downloading a HD film in a just seconds, according to the report.

Using light bulbs around the home or workplace, Li-Fi could deliver high-speed data transmission for internet access or IoT (Internet of Things) deployments. The biggest challenge for Velmenni, and others looking to harness Li-Fi technology, is finding ways to retrofit existing devices with the new technology in order to prevent having to create a whole new infrastructure.
