RedOrbit.com recently reported:
“A multi-national team led by USC with researchers hailing from the U.S., China, Pakistan and Israel has developed a system of transmitting data using twisted beams of light at ultra-high speeds – up to 2.56 terabits per second.
To put that in perspective, broadband cable (which you probably used to download this) supports up to about 30 megabits per second. The twisted-light system transmits more than 85,000 times more data per second.”

Meanwhile, Boston University continues to work on LED luminaires that serve an additional function of providing wireless data transmission. Get the story here.
