You may have heard about Wi-Fi technology and perhaps you are among those who use this technology. If you don't know, this is a technology that lets you access the internet on your mobile phone, tablet, computer or any other device that uses the internet.

Using Wi-Fi, you can watch videos online, you can listen to music, login to social networks, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Snapchat and other tablet networks. In short, you can do everything connected to the internet without turning on 'data' on your phone.

All you have to do is just have a Wi-Fi hotspot, then connect to it via your phone or any other internet access device and continue browsing faster than using 'data', depending on your Wi-Fi location.

While many Brainers have begun to embrace this technology and have begun to use it faster, with many offices equipped with Wi-Fi access free of charge, our partner countries have become very common and there are some cities where you have Wi-Fi free wherever you are!
As the world goes faster, while we 'worry' with Wi-Fi, scientists in developed countries have discovered new technology, faster than 100 times the standard Wi-Fi.

This technology is called Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) and unlike Wi-Fi that uses radio waves, Li-Fi uses Light Waves.

What happens is that a special LED light is used to distribute the Li-Fi waves and people within the area where the light comes on, they have access to the Internet as fast as the light! That is, no matter how big the video is, if you want to download it, you just touch it and within a few seconds the work is done.

The lamps are then connected to a special device that receives the internet from the satellite, then converts it to light waves and transmits it through those lamps, which must be switched on constantly to access the Internet.


The speed of Li-Fi, is 224 gigabits / seconds and as I told you, is over 100 times the average Wi-Fi. The inventor of this technology is Professor Harald Haas of the University of Edinburgh in the UK and has already been tested in the UK, the United States, Dubai and other places in the world.

The biggest challenge is that, to serve more people, the lights need to be on and have to be lit all day, all day. Also Li-Fi is not able to cross the wall, with the lights on only those within the area when light arrives and will access the Internet.

To counter the threat of a seemingly imminent threat to the Wi-Fi market, the Wi-Fi service provider is in the process of launching a new technology called Wi-Fi HaLow that will also have faster speeds that, yet will not reach Li Fig.

Already big companies like PureLiFi, Lucibel, Icade and Phillips as well as the US Army have stepped up the project and started developing equipment capable of receiving Li-Fi waves and the expectation is that by 2020, Li-Fi will spread. the whole world.
