5. People-centric approach
LiFi – secure and stable connection as an alternate to WiFi

Personal control – employee ability to control work environment
Tunable white – create environments to suit changing employee needs with lighting quality, color and intensity
• Building ‘technology around people’ rather than ‘people around technology’ gives workers more flexibility and empowers them 5

6. Connectivity through lighting

7. Why LiFi makes sense Secure communication Reliable network
Content only available within line-of-sight. Access to connectivity with personal USB key/dongle
Reliable network
Stable data rate per each user providing robust, reliable wireless communication
Alternative solution
LiFi Systems can be used in areas with poor or no WiFi or RF sensitive spaces

8. Way finding through lighting
Uses the lighting infrastructure and real-time occupancy data to guide employees wherever they need to go
Hyper-accurate indoor navigation opens up a host of additional applications and improves employee performance and experience
Visible light communication (VLC) or coded light communicates data through lighting

9. Personal control through lighting
Using VLC, office workers can control light levels via a smartphone app on demand
Creates a comfortable and productive environment
Third-party devices / systems can use employee positioning information for further integration (AV, Lync, Microsoft, HVAC control, room booking) using an API to provide x,y,z co- ordinates
