The global li-fi technology market size was USD 650.9 million in 2021. As per our research, the market is expected to reach USD 4,515.39 million in 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 22.55% during the forecast period.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with li-fi technology industry experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Light communication technology is also referred to as Light Fidelity (Li-Fi). It has the ability to send data quickly over the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared spectrums. It is a type of wireless technology that uses light to pinpoint a location and send information to other devices. It transmits data at a faster rate than Wi-Fi technology and uses LED bulbs as the power source. It has many uses in the aerospace and defense sectors, as well as in the security and electronics sectors.

Modern medical devices also use Li-Fi technology, which can also be used in chemical or petroleum plants where other frequencies might be dangerous. Location-based services can make use of it (GPS) Li-Fi can be used for data transmission in aero planes and underwater communication. The use of LiFi-enabled lighting will change the types of applications that can be imagined, including the connection of common household appliances like refrigerators, washing machines, microwaves, and vacuums as well as devices like televisions, computers, and Hi-Fi.

COVID-19 Impact: Industry Imbalance to Restrict Market Growth

The COVID-19 outbreak caused problems for manufacturers of services materials, including unstable markets, a drop in customer confidence, and difficulties with import and export commerce. The sourcing of raw materials, packaging, and distribution are all parts of the global supply chain. Due to lockdowns, moving commodities, labels, and other items has become difficult. In addition to having an immediate influence on markets, supply chains, supply and demand, and all of these other things, it also had a financial impact on the markets for services. The pandemic altered the dynamics of the industry, compelling organizations to redesign every aspect of their operational frameworks in order to preserve stability amidst the disturbances. Aside from that, the companies' business operations have been affected by the outbreak, which has an effect on the overall services industry. This has partially impacted the li-fi technology market.

LATEST TRENDS

"Indoor Activities to Boost the Market Growth"

The key trend boosting the market growth is indoor activities. Currently, smart buildings are adapting to their occupants in order to enhance user experience and resident comfort. By being aware of each occupant's location and then offering location-based services like intelligent parking, health monitoring, logistics, and shopping assistance, they achieve this. Location-based service not only helps with indoor shopping but is also very important for cutting down on building energy costs. Li-Fi technology works by using an LED light bulb's visible light to send high-speed data to a photodetector that is attached to a smartphone or tablet. The development of Li-Fi products, which enable wireless networking with light, has occurred concurrently with an increase in research into Li-Fi networking techniques like multiuser access, interference mitigation, and mobility support. The growth of the smart home and smart city markets will present a huge opportunity to the vendors in the studied market as Li-Fi technology slowly penetrates these applications. Thus, a key trend that is opening up potential for the industry to grow is the indoor activities. These new developments are mostly to blame for the market's overall growth.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Adoption of LED Light that Give the Market Extra Boost"

The growth in the use of LED bulbs as a fundamental part of the Li-Fi network is the main factor advancing the technology. The features of LEDs, such as less harmful emissions, lower power consumption, and increased lighting, have led to an increase in their use. In addition, policymakers are providing a significant discount for the use of LED bulbs in order to promote smart cities and a low-carbon economy. Customers can easily adapt to Li-Fi because they are familiar with LED bulbs, which increases the technology's potential user base. The advantages of Li-Fi technology over Wi-Fi are additional growth drivers for the Li-Fi market. As a result, the growth, and the use of product increasing use of LED bulb will boost the market. It will contribute to the expansion of the service industry and it will improve the overall Li-Fi technology market growth.

"Development in the Retail Sector to Encourage Market Expansion"

The developments in the retail sector, which will spur market growth over the forecast period, are one of the key driving factors. By utilizing visible light communications, retail businesses are expanding beyond the conventional ways of providing customers with a shopping experience. They can now notify clients using VLC technology because it helps them deliver precise and timely findings. In order to compete with the rising popularity of online retail, retailers are eager to utilize VLC's potential. As a result, these factors are collectively promoting market expansion, increasing company revenues. As a result, above mentioned factors will help the market to boost.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Limited Range of LED Bulbs to Impede Market Expansion"

The limited range of LED bulbs—which is shorter than the range of Wi-Fi devices currently on the market—is one of the limitations of Li-Fi technology. Physical obstacles can also break the connection. Furthermore, due to interference from nearby optical sources and sunlight as well as the possibility of unwanted parties intercepting it, this technology cannot be used in an outdoor setting. This may be a significant issue limiting market expansion. If this problem is fixed, the market will start to grow right away.
