Hunter's comment
what if you can use light to transmit data packets over the internet.
I am sure you have heard about all radiations and stuff, what if we can communicate by a different medium like light instead of electromagnetic waves.
Lifi - is a relatively new concept which uses light to transmit data packets. this mode of communication is full duplex and a lot of research is being done by big players like Philips etc to make transfer speeds comparable to the speed of light.
lifi xc station is a plug and play system which is compatible with any usb device.A secure and fast solution.

Lifi is a really cool alternative to Wifi as it seems. I haven't heard about it before but I had a quick look at the wiki page and I like it.
Just one little sidenote: light is also electromagnetic waves. Just a tiny spectrum of it but nevertheless part of it.
Great hunt @theversatileguy! This hunt has been verified and approved by the Steemhunt Moderation Team. Great job! Happy hunting.
Awesome hunt buddy.
Pros :
Cons:
-none for this hunt
Thanks for this hunt @theversatileguy it is the first time that I saw this technology
Pros:
As per the site it can go up to 43 Mbps for the communication to any LiFi enabled LED light.
This can be used in closed spaces! Especially if the radio frequency is at scarce in your area so I think that is absolutely a plus on this product since it doesn't rely on those tech.
Plug and play! No other stuff required, nothing to install or whatsoever and it is lightweight 43 grams only.

This tech is becoming more and more popular... light-based communication has a lot to give yet! The wireless stuff is a thing from the past compared with the possibilities and performance of this kind of technology.
Pros:
Cons:
Yeah ! It is fairly new in the market. A lot of research still going on, but i think it is disruptive one 😀
@flauwy, yes you are right , light can be considered as an electromagnetic wave comprising of electric and magnetic fields.
