IoT has been gaining more and more recognition in the past few years. But there are many areas to work on in this regard. To fill in these gaps, VLC is being integrated into IoT. VLC provides us with key applications/benefits i.e. more efficient Device to Device communication, works in very low luminance (energy efficient) and higher data rates (aim of over 100 Gbps).
The project uses unidirectional VLC transmissions from transmitter to receiver (for delivery of location-based VLC data). The network utilizes platform server and aggregation agents. For validation of proposed system, we have implemented by using VLC-capable LED lights and open source of one M2M .
