  • @ajjukevicius4710
    @ajjukevicius4710 3 роки тому +2

    biggest problem with this - communication must be bidirectional, that means light bulbs will have to have ability not only to emit light, but also to receive; handset devices will have to have to have not only an "eye" to receive the light, but also a bulb on itself (not necessarily visible light bulb, maybe IR or UV) and that bulb must be quite powerful in order for it's beams to bounce off walls and floors.

      Well... I wouldn't say it's a lie, it just seems really inconvenient. Wi-Fi IS good exactly because it goes through walls and in all directions. I can't really imagine any circumstance where Li-Fi is usable, except for lab conditions. For a stationary pc - if you can run a wire for Li-Fi to a nearest lamp, you can probably just run wired connection to that pc anyway. For a laptop or phone - any obstruction, or angle change has non-illusory chance to mess up connection.
      So, it's not "a lie", it's just... Why?

    Speed doesn't only depend on your Wifi, Gr-Fi or any other Lifi thing, It depends on your TCP/IP link speed too. Right now, Wifi with 802.11ac feature we can get max 1Gbps, and In future (means 1-2 years only) It will rise to more speed (ideally 10Gbps) and So, WiFi is very much mature and progressive thing. Nobody easily can replace it.

  • @jonasforsberg8199

      @neerajdubey5334 7 років тому

      yeah that's an advantage in wifi but, it also is a demerit for security reasons, as out of your room any one can access, and hack it and can steal your information,
      this, property of being blocked by an opaque surface serves as a merit in lifi when you are more concerned about privacy,
      on addition radio waves used for wifi are harmful which limits it's usability in radiation sensitive areas, like hospitals, aeroplanes, nuclear power plants. . .

      @sMASHsound 7 років тому +5

      i have that same question. and then there is the line of sight issue. its just like sending internet via lasers.
      one potential option i have just thought of is to have multiple sensors around a room, and the mobile device will be able to emit light signal in any orientation, because in nearly every plane, a sensor would be able to capture the signal.
      and to further that, all street lamps could be converted to send/receive signals. so it wouldn't be a long distance interface, but more like a localized net, meant for high traffic zones. but, it is cheap. u just need a modified modem and led lamps for the transmission, and then receiver sensors for the reception. then connect to the net.
      the main advantage would be the speed, and that would only really be useful if 20 people want to live stream 4k at the same time in the same place.

    All electromagnetic waves (radio, light etc) move at the same speed in air... the speed of light. The difference is the frequency of the wave, that is how many peaks and troughs in a second. Each peak and trough can be used to signal on/off or digital states depending on the translators. On/off is binary, the basis of electronic communication, and a single "bit". So, the higher the frequency, the more bits per second can be transmitted. The issue isn't the transfer medium, it's the translators on either end. Mainstream WiFi uses 2.4GHz and 5GHz signals... which have the theoretical maximum throughput of 2.4 Gigabits per second and 5 Gigabits per second. Yes, LiFi can reach HUNDREDS of Gigabits per second in testing, but the translators on either end are still the bottleneck.
    Think of it as your water supply to your house. The very large mains water pipeline running through the neighbourhood does gigalitres of water per hour. But, your tap can only do tens of litres per hour.

    I just looked at a bunch of Amazon reviews. This is still in it's early stages. Some of the reviews were hard to understand (especially if you're not a tech person), but what I gathered was that people's bulbs were going out, this required some kind of subscription for "additional features" and they're far more expensive than one would expect- considering the aim is to change the world. Li-Fi is a cool concept, but i'll wait a bit longer...

      +Mike Trieu (MegasChara) Where are these light bulbs all over your house getting their signal from? What is the point of using Li-Fi if you have to wire your entire house with a high-speed network to feed the light bulbs in every room? And how do the receiving devices send signals back the light bulbs?

    • @MikeTrieu
      @MikeTrieu 8 років тому

      Arioch IV​​ Who said anything about another high-speed network? All you need to exchange is timing information on a periodic basis for TDMA signaling. You could achieve that with simple IEEE 802.15.4 (a.k.a. IoT) radios. As for transmitting from receiving devices, especially on mobile handsets, I'd imagine one could modulate the LED backlight on LCD-based displays or directly on AMOLED-based ones. If that turns out to be insufficient (not enough intensity), OEMs could integrate a dedicated Li-Fi LED array somewhere near the top of the device like some phones already do for IR blasters. It also doesn't have to be visible light, just invisible IR so as not to be totally annoying to nearby users.

    Now, were he to put his hand between them and have the receiver still be able to detect the pulses from ambient light I may consider that a success.
    Basically, you have to have the optics of the receiver in direct LOS to the source for this to work.

    About security reasons . Some researches found that they can read data from hard drive led . They hack the led to send information troughs blinking . Same principle of lifi . They can read even from far distance and we are talking about a single led . Image that with room lights that are way more powerful . So it's still possible and quite easy to look over your network data , you just need a window and a good camera .

    But how do you upload using this? Using normal wi-fi?
    EDIT: Thinking about it again, I don't think a phone will be able to upload using li-fi, and it's the data you send (searches, passwords, naked selfies, bank details etc.) that needs to be protected more than downloads. So I just can't see how this can be more secure than wi-fi.

    • @racso5628
      @racso5628 8 років тому

      I'm thinking that there would just need to be a receiver and your phone would have an LED display (so amoled and such). The phone would need the ability to pulse incredibly quickly which would be done using MEMS (unless current technology can already switch fast enough).

    • @paulgatto7207
      @paulgatto7207 8 років тому

      Exactly right. The down side of LiFi is it is "line of site". In other words, your internet connection (ie. LED bulb) has to have an un-obstructed view of your device. This is practical in an industrial setting (eg. factory setting, classroom or office area). In a home setting, you would need to have a LiFi transmitter in every room or confine you internet use certain areas of the home.

  • @meng2704
    @meng2704 4 роки тому

    As in the TED talk, if you block the light source from the receiver, it just interrupts the transmission of data. so it also means that the receiver must be installed outside of the device, or at least be exposed to the light source.

      +Clemens Steinbauer It's an advantage and disadvantage.
      People living next door or standing outside won't be able use your li-fi. But you just have to make sure you don't block the signal, which shouldn't be a problem if your transmitter is on the ceiling.
      Either way, if you block the li-fi signal , then I'm sure that a shadow won't mean total signal loss. Light bounces off walls and objects into where the shadow is. That's why a shadow isn't completely black. There is still some light getting to the shadow, just at a lower intensity. The signal should still get there then but your internet speed may just decrease a bit.

    • @dausdk
      @dausdk 8 років тому +2

      +Jyson AW the problem i can see from this thing is, you cant use the internet. only for data transfer , try think , bulb give light to your phone(with light receptor) . but then, how the phone want to interact with the bulb? for example you want to open youtube, you must send request for youtube website, and if no request can be done, how the phone want to open youtube website? unless the bulb have light receptor too, and receive the light that phone created. the logic solve problem for me is , to combine Wi-fi and Li-fi . wifi for request, lifi for receiving data. what do you think?

    • @dausdk
      @dausdk 8 років тому

      M. de k.
      if you want to open youtube website, you must request for it , so you need to upload the request to the server to be processed, then you will be downloading the data that been sended by the server . You understand how (download and upload kb/second) concept right? as you can see, the bulb cant receive your uploaded data since there is other way to do it.

    • @dausdk

    Instances where Lie-Fi simply won't work:
    Phone in your pocket.
    Any device that doesn't have a special LED specifically made for Li-Fi (internet is a two-way communication). (not to mention enormous battery consumption)
    Any time that your device doesn't have direct line of sight to the light source (which is most of the time).
    You could be watching your video/playing your online game/downloading, and then someone walks in front of your computer, and suddenly you're disconnected from the internet. This technology would be so temperamental that it's simply not worth it.
