Light-based wireless networking

Light-based wireless networking uses light, typically from LEDs or lasers, to transmit data through the air or via cables. Instead of traditional radio waves used in Wi-Fi, this technology uses visible or infrared light to carry information, which can offer faster data transfer and less interference. It’s often employed in Secure environments or for high-speed indoor connections, as light can be directed precisely and does not penetrate walls. This method combines optical communication principles with wireless networking, providing an alternative for high-speed, secure, and interference-free data transfer without relying on radio frequencies.
