There is potential here, despite the early Wi-Fi-via-flashlight awkwardness. While you can’t turn a LiFi point entirely off, the signal has integrity at 10 percent room illumination (60 lux), and LiFiCo’s FAQ suggests future use of the invisible parts of the light spectrum.

Why didn’t they start with IR? IR natural sources? Because artificial sources are your TV remove and security cameras.

So the bulb works at low illuminations but what about light interferences? If you have other light sources, windows?
