LiFi Technology for Education

Responsible digital tech without wires or radio waves

Using assistive technologies in the classroom can make education innovative and fun. As digitization becomes a part of life, integrating the latest technological advancements into education is the new normal. Teaching through video lectures, live online classes, conducting online tests, and distributing coursework on school websites are some popular cases where technology is applied to learning. As such scenarios take over the world of schooling, a fast and secure internet network is vital for the success of the modern education system.

The advantages

Health

Radio waves raise significant questions and concerns due to perceived adverse health effects, particularly for children. Yet, they are heavily used around the world as WiFi technology relies on radio frequency signals to transmit data. This makes exposure to unhealthy radio frequencies in public spaces unavoidable. WiFi in schools, libraries, and educational centers exposes children to prolonged signals, potentially harming their health. LiFi technology in education can do away with this health hazard, as it uses light waves for data transmission. So, using LiFi in education can improve public health and well-being by protecting students from overexposure to radio waves with invisible light technology!

FAQs

LiFi technology is a wireless communication system that uses light waves for data transmission. It plays a crucial role in the digital transformation of learning spaces by providing a secure and efficient alternative to traditional Internet technologies.
LiFi technology for schools eliminates the exposure to radio waves, commonly associated with WiFi, by using light waves for data transmission. This not only safeguards students from potential health hazards but also contributes to a healthier and safer learning environment.
LiFi, utilizing energy-efficient LED bulbs, presents an eco-friendly alternative to traditional networks. Minimal energy consumption and the absence of electric power sources like modems, routers, antennas, and amplifiers, coupled with superior performance-to-energy consumption ratios, can potentially reduce the carbon footprint of digital learning by up to 50%.
LiFi technology for education enhances network security for schools by utilizing light-frequency signals that cannot pass through walls. This inherent security feature ensures that data transfer remains private and secure within the assigned coverage zone, providing a robust safeguard for sensitive information like student records.
Integrating technology in the classroom, especially one like LiFi , enables the creation of responsive, real-time communication in dynamic environments. The technology allows users to move freely while staying connected to the internet through an agile wireless signal, making it highly adaptable for educational institutions.

More responsible connectivity

Our solutions reduce children’s exposure to radiofrequency waves and meet the requirements of the Abeille law and the recommendations of the ANSES.

Did you know?

The Abeille law imposes limits on exposure to electromagnetic waves in certain sensitive areas such as elementary school, childcare centers and nurseries. The law prohibits “wireless internet access (wifi) in areas dedicated to children’s reception, rest and activities”.

Testimonials

Mrs Berckelaers
School Director
At Chantefleur kindergarten in L'Isle-Adam, France
LiFi works without radio frequency waves and thus responds to current public health issues by allowing children to evolve in a healthy environment [...] it offers teachers the possibility to set up rich and varied educational activities without health risks. Installing a LiFi system in classrooms is quick, simple and unobtrusive.
Emmanuel Houdaille
Director of Innovation
At SPIE
In my opinion, there are three identified advantages that place LiFi at the heart of a responsible digital approach: safety, children's health and the low energy consumption of these solutions. The ABEILLE law [...] was an excellent use case. Only LiFi enables day-care center employees to provide the connectivity needed for management applications and educational tablet applications for children.
