Li-Fi Technology As A Future Version of Networking


Li-Fi Probably Won’t Be The New Wi-Fi For Most People (+Video)

Nitish Kulkarni | November 29, 2015



Long restricted to the academic domain, Li-Fi, a light-based data delivery method is suddenly getting all sorts of attention. An Estonian startup Velmenni recently tested an commercial implementation and found it to be superior to Wi-Fi in almost every way – except as something you and I will probably ever use.
Velmenni’s technology, called Jungru, uses an LED bulb and transmits data at gigabit speed. It has a theoretical speed of 224 gigabytes per second, the BBC reported.
