Li-Fi, as coined by Prof. Harald Haas during his TED Global talk, is bidirectional, high speed and fully networked wireless communications, like Wi-Fi, using light. Li-Fi is a subset of optical wireless communications (OWC) and can be a complement to RF communication (Wi-Fi or Cellular network), or a replacement in contexts of data broadcasting.

What
is
LED ?
• Semiconductor Light Source
• p-n junction diode which emits
light
•Includes electroluminescence

when voltages are provided ,
releasing energy in the form of
photons

Five points need to know about Li-Fi
There is NO visible flicker.
Lights can be dimmed and still transmit.
Sunlight causes no interference.
Li-Fi uses power efficiently.
It does not need to be Line-Of-Sight to work.
