Visible light communication (VLC) is one of the
most promising current areas of research with a significant
potential for high-impact results, and successful outcomes
might revolutionize utilization of LEDs for modern
infrastructures to add novel functionalities in addition to
illumination.
VLC has been proposed for smart homes and streets,
manufacturing and medical environments for increased data
security and reduced interference, or a two-way
vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside infrastructure
communications as part of the emerging intelligent
transportation systems for increasing road safety.
The VisIoN project aims to train a new generation of
early-stage researchers in this emerging area and to make
significant contributions to the fundamental scientific
understanding and technical knowhow. Targeted application
areas include indoor and outdoor VLC access, smart
transportation, and medical and manufacturing environments.
