A review of Li-Fi technology applied to medicine

Abstract:

Li - Fi comes from Light - Fidelity. This technology is very modern and is becoming a theme in vogue in the telecommunications area. In 2011, Li - Fi was proposed by the German physicist Harald Haas. Unlike Wi - Fi, this technology transmits data through illumination by using a LED light bulb that varies in intensity faster than human eye can pursue. In other words, Li - Fi is a term which refers to visible light communication (VLC); technology that uses light emitting diodes (LEDs) for data transmission making it so in a wireless optical networking technology. Furthermore, Li - Fi provides high - bandwidth, efficiency and security than other technologies. In this paper, the authors discuss the technology in detail and how its advantages can be applied in the field of medicine. Basically, the idea is to improve the operation of medical equipment with the help of Li - Fi and its accelerated transmission of information.
