Oledcomm Installs Their LiFi Systems in The First Nursery School, Chantefleur, in L’Isle-Adam, Paris

Chantefleur Nursery School

Last month, Oledcomm released a news article on their website. They announced the 1st LiFi installation in Chantefleur nursery school in L’Isle-Adam. The school becomes the first kindergarten in the Paris region to be equipped with this technology. This is a symbolic step forward for LiFi and for the education sector and promises to open up new educational opportunities. Oledcomm further wrote the following statement:

“If the Chantefleur kindergarten decided to take the plunge and equip its classrooms with a LiFi installation, it is because this technology is an ultra-efficient, healthy, reliable and regulatory alternative to traditional technologies.”

Oledcomm wrote the following points about the advantages of installing LiFi in nursery schools:

LiFi works without radio waves and therefore meets the current public health challenges by allowing children to evolve in a healthy environment.
It consumes about 50% less electricity than traditional technologies and is therefore also part of the sustainable development approach of communities.
LiFi allows children, and even toddlers, to safely access a fun way to approach certain subjects in their learning.
Thanks to its ultra-fast and latency-free connection, LiFi gives teachers the opportunity to set up rich and varied educational activities without health risks, but also to communicate with parents and other students.
The LiFiMAXTab tablet with integrated LiFi is easy for children to use. It is wireless, allowing students to communicate with each other and other classes in the school to benefit from LiFi, even if they don’t have an installation.
Thanks to this diversification of teaching aids, children who have difficulty with paper-based materials (due to visual or learning disabilities, for example) now have additional, more accessible channels for developing their skills.
Installing a LiFi system in the classroom is quick, simple and discreet. There is no need to consider major work and make the room inaccessible for several days: it takes only one afternoon to equip a room!

Oledcomm

Oledcomm designs and develops LiFi network interface devices that enable high-speed wireless data communication. It also serves LiFi equipment in the telecom, datacom, personal electronics, and industrial markets.

Li-Fi Conference 2022

The Li-Fi Conference 2022 Edition was a great success. Li Fi Tech News will very soon write articles on the topics treated at the Conference.

What is LiFi?

How does LiFi work?

LiFi is a high speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication of data using light. LiFi constitutes of several light bulbs that form a wireless network.

LiFi Benefits

The primary benefits of LiFi 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 the small coverage area of LiFi 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.

5 sur 7 Matins Tv Programme Discusses LiFi Technology with Dr Fréjus Sanya and Anaïs Nassara in Benin, West Africa

5 sur 7 Matins, Benin

On Thursday 06th October 2022, the 5 sure 7 Matins platform invited Dr Sanya Max Fréjus and Anaïs Nassara to discuss LiFi technology and their LiFi prototype. During the discussion, Anaïs stated that their first objective behind their LiFi work was to make the LiFi technology known to the Beninese population because it is not known worldwide, especially in Africa. Dr Sanya Max Fréjus explained in simple terms the principles of LiFi technology to the audience.

Below are some of the statements from the video. These statements have been translated from French to English:

Rachida: “So, the second innovation of the day is that of our friend Anaïs. And what is this innovation? Whom I call on this set and will meet us in a moment”.

Dr Fréjus Sanya : “Alright. So Anaïs worked on the first prototype. This is also the very first faucet in fact, which speaks of LiFi to interconnect terminals. I call terminals or big smartphones or downright computers to take these more familiar examples. As you know, LiFi is a concept similar to wifi. So with WiFi, we all use to share and exchange data. Okay, but it's a wireless medium that uses radio waves. So today, thanks to LiFi, with the light that surrounds us, it is also possible to always communicate, exchange, and transmit information very quickly. And it is moreover on this technology that Anaïs Nassara worked to allow us from now on to be able to exchange data between us at home or at the office. That's what she works for”.

Rachida: “Anaïs Hello, well done already for this innovation. What's the idea behind all this?”

Anaïs Nassara: “Thank you very much for this opportunity to speak. The first objective behind this work was already to make the LiFi technology known to the Beninese population because it is a technology that has emerged, I would say since 2011, but which is not known worldwide, especially in Africa. So, the first objective was really to make this technology known and also to prove, to show that in our context, the Beninese context, that such a prototype can be made in order to be able to transmit data.”

Rachida: “Okay to transmit LiFi. In fact, it allows you to communicate data simply. Is that right? In fact, we need to understand the usefulness of this innovation.”

Dr Fréjus Sanya: “LiFi actually enables communication. We already have several communication technologies based on radio frequencies, such as WiFi for example. And with WiFi, we have the ability to connect to the Internet, to be able to do our research and all that goes with it. We can actually do the same thing with the LiFi, which is not there in fact to play with and is part of the wifi, but rather comes, in fact, to support the wifi because we cannot use the wifi in different environments such as hospitals. And it's actually easier to already use the light that is already present everywhere. Especially with the evolution of the lighting fixtures we use, we have moved from fluorescent lamps to LED lamps and now with the presence of lamps using our various infrastructures and as much as possible, it is now possible to be able to use these LED lamps to transmit data.”

Rachida: “Alright. So Doctor Sanya, you are the one supervising these different students. What is the originality of Anaïs through this innovation?”

Dr Fréjus Sanya: “Thank you Rachida. In fact, you understand that LiFi is not very concrete in Benin.”

Rachida: “We didn't know. I too am discovering.”

Dr Fréjus Sanya: “Yes, so it was important to show, in fact, to make people discover what LiFi is and to show that for us, developing countries, we already have a technology which is present and which we ignore. And so, by using this technology now will allow us to go faster in the data fields. Thanks to the work of Anaïs, we proved that we could point to it and use this light for transmitting data between systems without deploying other infrastructures that will cost us dearly. Finally, in fact, to the exchange of data and the originality of her work, that is, she first understood what it means to implement, what LiFi is and the degree of agreement in the transfer of data between two computers. “

Rachida: “So. Where did this idea come from, Anaïs?”

Anaïs Nassara: “So, a year ago, actually, I saw senior student who worked on LiFi. Also at the time, and seeing his work, I was inspired. I wanted in fact to bring more to society, to bring more in fact to the continent, I would even say. So, wanting to work on this project, I became interested in this project to be able to make the first prototype in order to show Yes, we can make it. We may also have LiFi prototypes in Benin.”

Rachida: “And what stage of this innovation are we at today? Is it already popularised? What stage are we at?”

Dr Fréjus Sanya: “Yes, we have already popularised it, precisely because we are in close collaboration with a LiFi technology company which is based in Nigeria and. England and a partner in Texas, Mr Ken Peterson. They wants to help us in developing further this prototype as well as going through the various inventions that we have made recently so that our populations can have kits available. And already, we have a pilot phase of an agreement. I'm not going to lay out everything he said because it's under approval. So, that from now on, it can really only be something known by all and used by all.”

LEDs Magazine Interviews Oledcomm Co-CEOs On Their Shift to Sell LiFi Into The Defense, Aerospace And Airline Industries

LEDs Magazine Interviews Oledcomm

LEDs Magazine interviewed the Co-CEOs of Oledcomm, Benjamin Azoulay and Pierre-Jean Beylier. In their article, LEDs Magazine stated that “Oledcomm” stands for “optical LED communications.” The “oled” in the moniker is unrelated to organic light-emitting diodes.

Oledcomm stated that they are now completely focused on using infrared, also known as “invisible light.”

In a commensurate market shift, Oledcomm is now focusing on selling their LiFi products into the Defense, Aerospace, and Airline industries. They think that these sectors will benefit from transmitting data via infrared methods.

Azoulay and Beylier also stated that they have deprioritised the goal of outfitting consumer laptops, tablets, and phones with chips that would enable users to use light for internet communications in the same manner that radio-based Wi-Fi does today. This is due to the slow consumer Li-Fi uptake. From a LiFi Tech News’ perspective, this is also due to the lack of awareness of LiFi in the mass market.

Benjamin Azoulay stated that:

“We were all dreaming about having Li-Fi being integrated into smartphones and tablets, etcetera, etcetera” …

“I personally strongly believed in that a few years ago, because we were having concrete projects with smartphone manufacturers and with IoT manufactures. But at the end of the day, it did not materialise.”

Pierre-Jean Beylier added:

“But over the last two years, I’ve seen a tremendous change and a tremendous acceleration”.

“Not in consumer, but in, I would say, industrial opportunities. Where the LiFi technology solves problems that today cannot be solved by any other technology.”

LiFi is generally regarded as far more secure than Wi-Fi, as it requires line of sight to intercept

“You cannot detect it, you cannot jam it,” said Beylier. “The war in Ukraine has put LiFi in the spotlight. It’s on everybody’s lips. Armies are looking at LiFi as a way to reduce the electromagnetic signature, and as a way to improve mobility in a high-intensity war.”

“You think of the cost of fuel, you think about the carbon neutrality objectives of the airlines — replacing cables and saving hundreds of kilos in an aircraft is extremely attractive,” said Beylier.

LEDs Magazine then asked Oledcomm of their use of 940-nm infrared light as opposed to visible light.

Benjamin Azoulay responded:

“Air France was very clear that no traveller will accept having to switch on the lights to get access to the internet”.

He further stated that there’s a broad and compelling reason to use infrared rather than visible light in general: It’s faster, because the phosphor coating used to coax blue LEDs into emitting visible white light slows down the modulation process used to encode data.

“You get much better performance with infrared than with white LED,” Azoulay said. “The speed can be three times that of white.”

Oledcomm has walked away from illumination. It previously tried partnering with lighting companies, but “it just did not work,” Azoulay said.

Now, when the company is attempting to sell to commercial offices or the like, it does not approach the facilities department.

“Oledcomm is a telecom of light company,” Azoulay said. “We are not a lighting company. We are not selling to the building ecosystem. We are selling to the IT ecosystem. We address the IT manager of the company.” The shift began in early 2020.

“Oledcomm is not a lighting company,” said Beylier. “We are an optical communications company. And 100% of what we do today is based on invisible light.”

“So in the industrial world and the Defense world, there is this very clear acceleration, not only in the discussions we’re having, but also in our revenue, which is increasing very significantly in 2022 from 2021,” said Beylier, whose background includes selling communications to Defense and aerospace. It’s going to be five to six times higher. So, it’s really an acceleration, but not in the consumer space, where I think it will take a number of years before we see something big.”

“Yes, I think lasers have a clear role to play, I’m absolutely convinced about that,” said Azoulay.

“We’re not suggesting that the name will change to Olasercomm. But we have it on good authority that the company indeed has laser projects underway”.

pureLiFi

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.

Technologies such as WiFi, 4G and 5G use radio frequencies to transmit data, which produce large areas of radio frequency emissions that are easy to detect, intercept, and can cause overcrowding resulting in slow speeds and unreliable communications due to increased RF congestion. LiFi uses light rather than radio frequencies resulting in wireless communications that are more reliable, significantly more secure, and simpler to deploy.

HomeGrid Forum Welcomes Oledcomm to Accelerate LiFi Interoperability With The Use of G.hn Backbone

HomeGrid Forum

Today, HomeGrid Forum released a press statement on their website. They stated that Oledcomm has joined HomeGrid Forum to contribute to the coexistence and interoperability testing needed for accelerating the market adoption of Light Fidelity (LiFi) using the G.hn backbone.

HomeGrid Forum President Livia Rosu stated the following statements:

“Welcoming Oledcomm as a member is a great step for HomeGrid Forum and the innovation of G.hn in the LiFi industry.”.

“We are witnessing an exponential increase of the LiFi use cases driven by sensitive data sharing requirements. With the recent launch of the HomeGrid Forum LiFi Task Force, it is an exciting time for Oledcomm to join us in progressing the G.hn standards-based interoperability ecosystem for LiFi.”

Oledcomm President and co-CEO, Benjamin Azoulay declared that: “Joining HomeGrid Forum will be a great step for Oledcomm in our journey of learning about and adopting the most secure and reliable technologies to aid the development of LiFi. The solid foundation, provided by G.hn, will be a critical factor in the successful adoption of LiFi and the entire industry must realize its potential to truly reap the benefits of LiFi technology.”

HomeGrid Forum (HGF) is an industry alliance formed to support the development and deployment of a unified coaxial, phone line, powerline, and plastic optical fibre home networking technology called G.hn (Gigabit Home Networking). G.hn technology is based on standards developed by the UN’s International Telecommunications Union – Telecom (ITU-T) standards development organization.

HomeGrid Certification ensures compliance and interoperability (C&I) of silicon and systems through plugfests and rigorous C&I testing. A logo is issued for certified systems’ packaging and documentation of G.hn-based systems. HGF Certification ensures that retail customers and Service Providers have confidence in, and great satisfaction with all HGF G.hn Certified Certified products.

HomeGrid Forum members comprise an eco-system covering all aspects of the technology from Retailers to Service Providers, Utilities to Smart Grid think tanks, System Developers to Test Houses and Silicon Companies.

HomeGrid currently has four workgroups: a Clean Tech/Smart Grid/Smart Energy workgroup focused on in-home energy management and utility Distribution Automation and AMI applications for G.hn, a G.hn Contributions workgroup that continuously works to develop advanced enhancements for wired home networking, a Compliance & Interoperability workgroup, and a Marketing workgroup focused on promoting all HomeGrid Certified Products and technologies.

The purpose of HomeGrid Forum is to:

Lead the work within the ITU-T to continuously expand G.hn, through a sustained effort to improve and extend this advanced home networking technology for any in-home wiring (coaxial cable, phone line, powerline and plastic optical fiber).
Encourage and evangelize the adoption and widespread deployments of G.hn by Service Providers and through Retail channels.
Provide a clear migration path for all legacy wired technologies to G.hn, where coexistence and G.hn’s ability to work over any wire type enables Service Providers to extend the life of their existing network investments while increasing coverage, robustness, and throughput in the home.
Maintain a comprehensive compliance and interoperability program to promote an ecosystem of compliant silicon and interoperable products based on the ITU-T G.hn standards.
