In July 2022, The Scottish National Investment Bank awarded EUR 10 million to aid Edinburgh-based pureLiFi, which spent years designing a new Visible Light Communication based networking method called LiFi, to support a global rollout of their technology. PureLiFi announced that it would utilize the extra funding to develop new LiFi technologies further while opening up additional markets in more consumer-friendly areas, like mobile phones, tablets, wearables, and other connected devices.
In January 2022, Sheffield researchers developed a new way of creating micro-displays to bring the next generation of VR headsets, smartphones, and smartwatches with higher resolution, speed, and efficiency. It used microlaser diodes - micro LEDs, to develop ultimate micro-display and visible light communication devices. As per Sheffield researchers, VLC technology had the potential to offer much greater bandwidth & efficiency than WiFi or 5G and could be utilized where radio frequency emissions were controlled or did not work, like in aircraft, hospitals, underwater and hazardous environments.
