Provisioning secured data access to authorized users through light fidelity (LiFi) data transmission and a virtual reality device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056425 titled 'Provisioning secured data access to authorized users through light fidelity (LiFi) data transmission and a virtual reality device

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system that uses light fidelity (LiFi) technology to transmit and secure confidential data. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • A LiFi device receives a request from a receiving device to provide confidential data.
  • The LiFi device masks the confidential data and modulates light with the masked data.
  • The LiFi device emits the modulated light towards the receiving device.
  • The LiFi device also receives a request from a virtual reality device to unmask the confidential data.
  • The LiFi device communicates a blockchain data entry to a blockchain network to determine if the user is authorized to access the unmasked data.
  • If the user is authorized, the LiFi device receives a confirmation message indicating the user's authorization.
  • The LiFi device then modulates light with the unmasked data and emits it towards the virtual reality device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Secure transmission of confidential data in environments where radio frequency-based communication is restricted or not desired.
  • Integration with virtual reality systems to provide secure access to sensitive information.
  • Use in industries such as healthcare, finance, and defense where data security is crucial.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures the confidentiality of data by masking it and using blockchain technology for authorization.
  • Provides a secure and reliable alternative to traditional wireless communication methods.
  • Reduces the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access to sensitive information.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced data security through the use of LiFi and blockchain technology.
  • Faster and more reliable transmission of confidential data compared to traditional wireless communication.
  • Increased control over who can access and unmask confidential data, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system comprises a light fidelity (lifi) device. the lifi device receives, from a receiving device, a first request to provide confidential data. the lifi device masks the confidential data and modulates light with masked confidential data. the lifi device emits the light modulated with the masked confidential data toward the receiving device. the lifi device receives, from a virtual reality device, a second request to unmask the confidential data. the lifi device communicates a blockchain data entry to a blockchain network, where the blockchain data entry indicates to determine whether a user is authorized to access unmasked confidential data. in response to the user being authorized, the lifi device receives a confirmation message that indicates the user is authorized to access the unmasked confidential data. the lifi device modulates light with the unmasked confidential data and emits the modulated light toward the virtual reality device.
