In this scenario, light fidelity (LiFi) finds the places wherever WiFi is applicable to additional features of a high-speed data network. Apart from the speed factor, LiFi is a more suitable in-hospital application for monitoring the patient's conditions without frequency interference with the human body," said Dr Vijay Shah, Executive Member of GMERS Hospital, Vadodara."NavTech LiFi Transceiver's network in the hospital for monitoring the patient's conditions such as temperature, pressure, heartbeat, glucose level, and respiratory conditions using respective sensors integrated with our LiFi Transceivers.
