LI-FI technology i. e Light Fidelity technology is a wireless communication. Prof. Harald Haas is the founder of Li-Fi technology. Li-Fi provides transmission of data through LED light. . Li-Fi term refers to visible light communication (VLC) and subset of optical wireless communication. He started a research in 2003 as he saw the upcoming spectrum crunch. Prof. Harald Haas also gave a TED talk on this topic of LI-FI in 2011. He says the solution for this is sending data through LED light which is very fast. LED light is electronic device. Harald Haas calls it as D-LIGHT, which produce data rate faster than 10 megabits per second, which has more speed than average broadband connection. This is the concept where Wi-Fi is replaced by Li-Fi. All data's from laptops, cell phones, are transmitted through light, and when there is no light you can't access data.
