Visible Light Communication – Broadband Communication from the LED Ceiling Light

The Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute presents at Lightfair a novel form of broadband transmission technology. Broadband data streams travel via visible light from standard off-the-shelf LED lamps to a computer or other communication-enabled end device. Current broadband capacity is 100 Mbit/s while speeds of up to 800 Mbit/s have been demonstrated in laboratory conditions. VLC is suitable for dissemination of broadband video streams as well as bidirectional communication. This technology can be applied anywhere, where LED technology is used for illumination purposes.
