Location-aware application with Li-Fi

Resumen

Li-Fi is a technology that uses visible light from a Light Emitter Diode (LED) to transmit high speed data to a photo detector, which is connected to a smartphone or tablet. Location awareness refers to devices that can passively or actively determine their location with respect to a well-known location wireless communications device. In this paper we describe a Li-Fi based application, in which a smart phone or tablet with a light sensor and within the range of a Li-Fi lamplight, immediately trigger events like displaying a picture, accessing a Web page, or playing a video.
