Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) is a form of wireless telecommunications that uses light to transmit data. It is a line-of-sight technology, meaning that the transmitter and receiver must be in direct view of each other. OWC is used in a variety of applications, including indoor and outdoor wireless networks, backhaul links, and point-to-point links. It is also used in the automotive industry for vehicle-to-vehicle communication. OWC is a cost-effective alternative to traditional wired networks, as it requires no infrastructure and can be deployed quickly. It is also more secure than traditional wireless networks, as it is not susceptible to interference from other wireless networks. Additionally, OWC has a higher data rate than traditional wireless networks, making it suitable for applications that require high-speed data transmission. Some companies in the OWC market include LightPointe Communications, Inc., Siklu Communication Ltd., and Bridgewave Communications, Inc. Show Less Read more
