Spirulina algae continues to amaze us with its countless beneficial properties for health and the environment. Now, a team of scientists has decided to exploit it in another way as well: cleaning the air of carbon dioxide. Thus, it...
Li-fi, or
Light-fidelity, is a VLC (Visible Light Communications) system that uses light
to send wireless data embedded in the beam. No electromagnetic waves,
therefore, on which damage to health and the environment is still being
discussed, without arriving at a definitive solution.
The...
