c-224
a smart lamp designed for libraries
c-224 is a lamp designed for libraries. Developed in collaboration with Oledcomm, this lamp introduces a new wireless communication technology called Li-Fi. Using the visible light of LEDs to transmit a signal, Li-Fi offers higher network speeds and a more secure connection than Wi-Fi. Placed under the light, internet-enabled devices benefit from a fast and reliable connection. Thanks to infrared emitters that transmit data through invisible light, Li-Fi remains active even when the light is switched off.
