Sunpartner Technologies Increases Performance in its LiFi Receiver, Wysips® Connect, to Meet the Needs of its Partner ALCATEL ONETOUCH

BARCELONA, March 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

    - MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS 2015

    Last year at Mobile World Congress 2014, Sunpartner Technologies, the French
specialist in innovative solar solutions, unveiled the world's first photovoltaic LiFi
receiver: Wysips(R)Connect. Today, the company is developing this ground-breaking
technology with CEA-Leti, a French public research institute.

    To further optimize the receiver's capacity, a 12-month, international development
program will be launched in early 2015 with the one of the fastest smartphone brand,
ALCATEL ONETOUCH. This joint venture shows that leaders in research and in business are
convinced of Wysips(R) Connect's advantages.

    Wysips(R) Connect is currently the only LiFi technology in existence that enables
screens and mobile devices (phones, e-readers, sensors, electronic shelf tags, watches,
etc.) to charge their batteries and receive data using visible light waves (VLC-Visible
Light Communication) without tapping into the device's battery - meaning the LiFi
connection powers itself.

    Wysips(R) Connect: Game-changing Photovoltaic LiFi

    Recently, LiFi has captured the attention of the largest smartphone manufacturers such
as ALCATEL ONETOUCH. In fact, Sunpartner is the first and only company to date that has
succeeded in making a photovoltaic receiver able to receive all types of LiFi signals.
This receiver is essential for converting the visible light waves produced by LEDs into
electronic signals. This signal is then decoded into an audio, text or video file on
connected devices (such as mobile phones, tablets, sensors, electronic shelf tags, and
smartwatches). Totally unique, this photovoltaic component is ultra-thin and transparent.
It is integrated during manufacturing between the screen and the touchscreen layer of a
mobile phone, tablet, or other device.

    A Promising International Research Program

    The year-long joint research program with ALCATEL ONETOUCH will enable Sunpartner
Technologies to offer new video playback features from mobile devices over LiFi.

    The first phase will take advantage of the expertise and facilities of CEA-Leti, which
specializes in micro- and nano-technologies applied to wireless communication systems and
components, in order to characterize the Wysips(R) Connect component and increase its data
transfer speed.

    The goal: enable users to stream and watch compressed, high-definition playback of any
video over a LiFi connection. This feature is of particular interest for ALCATEL ONETOUCH,
who cares about end users' experience and strives to bring the best technology to the mass
market.

    With this program, Sunpartner Technologies positions itself at the forefront of
creating the LiFi Internet. In 2 to 3 years, LiFi networks will free up companies' crowded
Wi-Fi networks, and LiFi will be introduced in hospitals, sensitive sites like nuclear
power plants, aircraft fleets, and shopping centers for a start.
