pureLiFi Demonstrates Their New LiFi Enabled Phone At The OFC Conference
pureliFi
pureLiFi announced and demonstrated their LiFi enabled phone at the OFC Conference. OFC is the largest global conference and exhibition for optical communications and networking professionals. The program is comprehensive ranging from research to the marketplace, from components to systems and networks and from technical sessions to the exhibition. For over 40 years, OFC has drawn attendees from all corners of the globe to meet and greet, teach and learn, make connections and move the industry forward.
pureLiFi develops technology for communication networks that integrates data and lighting utility infrastructures. It offers a LiFi enabled device that converts the beam of lights into an electrical signal. The signal is then converted back into data. The company was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in Edinburgh.

pureLiFi showed how two LiFi enabled phones can connect to each other offering more reliable, fast, and secure communications, making it safer and easier to share data, collaborate, and play games with friends using your phone. You can watch the following video about pureLiFi new LiFi enable phone:
“This video will demonstrate the Li Fi enabled phone case for the Moto G mobile phone. As you can see here, the phone case incorporates two lightened tennis one front facing and the other top facing. The phone case also incorporates to indicator LED lights. For demonstration purposes, this would not be required in the real-world integration. These lights do not transmit data. First, we will demonstrate how the life enable phone can quickly and securely transfer a file while pointing at another life enabled phone.”
“As you can see here, this 4k video is transferring in a couple of seconds. Li Fi is a wireless technology that requires intentional connectivity. As you can see here when the phone is pointed away from the target, there is no transfer of data allowing for the user to control where information is shared. This makes Li Fi particularly useful for sending payments or secure information. It is also possible to screen share between phones taking advantage of Li Fi fast low latency connections. Li Fi can enable all new multiplayer gaming scenarios that enable fast, reliable low latency gaming just like using your console at home.”
“As you can see here the use of Li Fi is not only fast, but provides intentional and secure connections. As Li Fi does not use radio frequencies and offers low latency connections. The user experience and the quality of connections can enable new user experiences with just your mobile phone.”

What is Li-Fi?
Li-Fi, also known as "Light Fidelity" is a wireless optical networking technology, which uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit data. In 2011, professor Harald Haas made a Li-Fi demonstration at the TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Global Talk on Visible Light Communication (VLC).

VLC uses light as a medium to deliver high-speed communication like Wi-Fi and complies with the IEEE standard IEEE 802.15.7. The IEEE 802.15.7 is a high-speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication technology-based standard similar to Wi-Fi's IEEE 802.11.
How does Li-Fi work?
Li-Fi is a high speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication of data using light. Li-Fi constitutes of several light bulbs that form a wireless network.
When an electrical current goes through to a LED light bulb, a stream of light (photons) emits from the lamp. LED bulbs are semiconductor devices, which means that the brightness of the light flowing through them can change at extremely high speeds. The signal is sent by modulating the light at different rates. The signal can then be received by a detector which interprets the changes in light intensity (the signal) as data. Also when the LED is ON, you transmit a digital 1, and when it is OFF, you transmit a 0.
Li-Fi Benefits
The primary benefits of Li-Fi are as follows:
• Security: Provides entirely secure access. Where there is no light there is no data.
• Safety: Does not produce electromagnetic radiation and does not interfere with existing electronic systems.
• Localisation: Allows localisation due to small coverage area of Li-Fi access point - localisation can be used for very precise asset tracking.
• Data density: Provides ubiquitous high-speed wireless access that offers substantially greater data density (data rate per unit area) than RF through high bandwidth reuse.
