[no-cost-connection-with-Led-new] [free-connection-with-Led-ne] Kiwik Communication technology based on light. Inspired by VLC (Visible Light Communication), Kiwink^(r) makes any LED- equipped product able to communicate and enables it to send data to any smartphone. This low data-rate communication offers infinite possibilities for new usages to create. A zero cost connection simply through an Led. Kiwink^(r) for Home appliances Kiwink^(r) makes the kitchen connected for new uses * Get access to extensive user-experience data * Offer assistance for commissioning * Safe & free communication * Fully operational * No product alteration required * Consumes less energy than Wifi or Bluetooth * No extra hardware cost Also works with home-appliance-connected-objects Know how your product is used with an led connection How does it work ? Kiwik Communication technology based on light. Inspired by VLC (Visible Light Communication), Kiwink^(r) makes any LED- equipped product able to communicate and enables it to send data to any smartphone. This low-rate communication offers infinite possibilities for always new usages to create. A zero cost connection simply through an Led. Kiwink^(r) for Access Control The smartphone becomes the key and badge to access secured areas without having to connect to any Bluetooth device * Facilitating and strengthening the access control * No more badge usage * Can also improve the control access with adding a security level thanks to the light Why not using Kiwink^(r) for securing the credit card payment/online payment ? Also works with [access-control-connected-objects] control access with led connection How does it work ? Kiwik Communication technology based on light.
