Li-Fi Conference 2022 – Quick Recap From LiFi Tech News
Li-Fi Conference Quick Recap
Happy new month everyone and welcome to the month of new beginnings,
Today, We will briefly discuss the Li-Fi Conference 2022 held last year on the 28th of June 2022. The Jakajima, the global High Tech Conference organiser, and the Light Communications Alliance (LCA) organised the successful conference.
Jakajima, Matchmaker for Innovators in the high-tech industry, organises many events, ranging from LiFi Technology industry trends, 3D Printing to the Internet of Things, from Unmanned Cargo Aircraft to Health Tech, from 4D Printing to Photonics and from Vertical Farming to Sustainable Materials.
As technology develops itself from atoms to bits and from bits to atoms, traditional boundaries between value chains disappear which leads to new business opportunities. According to their website, the combination of business, technology, creativity, enthusiasm and humour is their leitmotif.
Jakajima offers services such as Jakajima events/conferences, Conference as a Service, Workshops, Market Intelligence, Tikcit registration platform and Moderator/Chairman services.
The Li-Fi Conference was conducted physically and online. It included live presentations from researchers, executives, academics, experts, and industry specialists from the Light Communications Alliance, pureLiFi, Nokia, Signify, University of Strathclyde, MaxLinear, Technische Universität München, Slux, HomeGrid Forum, ZERO1 France, SITUM, To Be Srl, Kyocera SLD, imec-DistriNet, KU Leuven and Cisco.
In the first part of the conference, Marc Fleschen, Chairman, Light Communications Alliance, delivered the first presentation about the LCA.
Musa Unmehopa, Head of Wireless Standards & Regulations at Signify discussed on how to build the LiFi ecosystem. Max Riegel, Head of Industry Environment IEEE, Nokia, talked on LiFi Standardisation Status and Evolution.
Professor Harald Haas, a Distinguished Professor at the University of Strathclyde shared his views on moving Towards Terabit per Second Wireless Networking with Light. Marcos Martínez, Director of Standards Engineering, MaxLinear, presented his talk on 'A silicon-vendor perspective on LiFi technology and its evolution'.
Carmen Mas Machuca, Adjunct Teaching Professor, Technische Universität München, talked on 'Techno-economic analysis and planning issues for LiFi solutions'. Alessandro Pasquali, CEO, Slux, presented on 'A vision about future developments in wireless light communication'.
Ron Schaeffer, PureLiFi, presented on 'Market Conditions Pulling LiFi Towards the Consumer'. Sandrine Gihr, Managing Director, ZERO1 France, and Gregory Botanes, CEO, SITUM, jointly discussed on 'OCC, a wireless communication between LED Light and camera of the phone (image sensor) for usage of b2b2c'.
Nikola Serafimovski, PureLiFi, talked on 'LiFi in Defence'. Livia Rosu, President, HomeGrid Forum, presented on 'LiFi Task Force for Interoperability Testing and Acceleration of Market Adoption'.
Danilo Fattorini, Chief Operating Officer, To Be Srl, made a presentation on 'LiFi in Italy: museums, hospitals and more'. John Peek, Senior Advisor, Kyocera SLD, shared interesting information on 'Beyond LaserLight there is DataLight: LiFi for Mobility'.
Jonathan Oostvogels, PhD Researcher, imec-DistriNet, KU Leuven, talked on 'Symbol-Synchronous Buses: Deterministic, Low-Latency Wireless Mesh Networking with LEDs'. John Parello, Principal Engineer, Cisco Innovation Labs, delivered a presentation about Cisco.
This is a heads up of the upcoming Li-Fi Conference 2022 recap series of articles from LiFi Tech News.
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?
LiFi, also known as "Light Fidelity" is a wireless optical networking technology, which uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit data. In 2011, professor Harald Haas made a LiFi demonstration at the TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Global Talk on Visible Light Communication (VLC).
VLC uses light as a medium to deliver high-speed communication like Wi-Fi and complies with the IEEE standard IEEE 802.15.7. The IEEE 802.15.7 is a high-speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication technology-based standard similar to Wi-Fi's IEEE 802.11.
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.
When an electrical current goes through to a LED light bulb, a stream of light (photons) emits from the lamp. LED bulbs are semiconductor devices, which means that the brightness of the light flowing through them can change at extremely high speeds. The signal is sent by modulating the light at different rates. The signal can then be received by a detector that interprets the changes in light intensity (the signal) as data. Also when the LED is ON, you transmit a digital 1, and when it is OFF, you transmit a 0.
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.

LiFi Systems Reviews by LiFi Tech News
OLEDCOMM LIFIMAX KIT REVIEW - ONE YEAR IN
We reviewed the LiFiMax kit produced by the leading French LiFi company Oledcomm. We bought this LiFi kit system at the end of 2020. After over a year of use, we decided to write a review of this LiFi system. We looked briefly at the profile of Oledcomm, a brief history of the LiFiMax system, the Kit box contents, some testing and performance results of this LiFi system, the customer experience and our own verdict (the good and the bad points) of the LiFiMax kit.

SIGNIFY TRULIFI 6002.1 STARTER KIT SYSTEM REVIEW
We also reviewed the Trulifi 6002.1 starter kit produced by Signify, the world leader in lighting for professionals, consumers and lighting for the Internet of Things. We got this LiFi kit system with the help of PCDSI and Signify around August 2021. In a similar fashion done with our previous review of the LiFiMax kit a few months ago, we will look briefly at the profile of Signify, a brief history of the Trulifi 6002.1 kit, the Kit box contents, some testing and performance results of this LiFi system, the customer experience and our own verdict (the good points and the bad points) of the Trulifi 6002.1 kit.
