Immersive Connectivity

High-speed, bi-directional, wireless communication of data

About LiFi

Experience a secure network of high-speed wireless data through light

High-speed, bi-directional and wireless communication of data
Visible light for downlink and infrared for uplink allows full duplex communication
Larger bandwidths than conventional RF technologies

LiFi is high speed bi-directional networked and mobile communication of data using light. LiFi comprises of multiple light bulbs that form a wireless network, offering a substantially similar user experience to Wi-Fi except using the light spectrum.

How it works?

Data transmission by modulating the intensity of light

What is LiFi?

LiFi allows for data to be transmitted by modulating the intensity of light, which is then received by a photo-sensitive detector. The light signal is then demodulated into electronic form. This modulation is performed in such a way that it is not perceptible to the human eye.

LiFi can work indoors, outdoors, with the lights dimmed and is not strictly line-of-sight technology. pureLiFi’s technology is also LED agnostic, which means it works with many off-the-shelf LED’s.

Benefits

LIFi exclusive and innovative advantage.

Smart Lighting

Any private or public lighting including street lamps can be used to provide LiFi hotspots, and the same communications infrastructure can be used to monitor and control lighting and data.

Efficiency

LiFi allows the repurposing of light for communications as it uses the same infrastructure. LED lights are already widely efficient, and LiFi gives them another purpose, connectivity.

Location Services

Separate software will needed to be developed and deployed in order to accomplish this benefit.

Secure

Light can be contained. Light cannot travel through walls, which means a LiFi signal can be secured in a physical space. pureLiFi’s technology also enables additional control as data can be directed from one device to another. Users can see where the data is going.

Data Density

Data density offers a great user experience as it reduces the need to share the wireless bandwidth with other users. LiFi can achieve approximately 1000 times the data density of Wi-Fi offering more data per square metre. This is an important factor for wireless efficiency.

No Interference

Radio frequency technology such as Wi-Fi is vulnerable to interference from a wide range of devices such as cordless phones, microwaves and neighbouring Wi-Fi networks. LiFi signals can be defined by the area of illumination, which means interference is much simpler to avoid and even stop altogether. This also means LiFi can be used in RF hostile zones such as hospitals, power plants and aeroplanes.

Wipro – pureLiFi Partnership

Wipro Lighting and pureLiFi team up to drive LiFi adoption in Asia

Imagine a world where every light could connect you to the internet. Lights that illuminate our offices, homes, cars and our streets also connecting us to data and powering our growing demand for connectivity.

Wipro Lighting, part of Wipro Enterprises, has partnered with pureLiFi to harness their LiFi technology to develop applications for the wireless communications and lighting market in Asia.
