“I hope that in the future ‘smart’ modern office buildings with giant glass windows will work with the Internet based on this technology,” said Osama Amin, professor and principal investigator of the project.

Their technology, which uses windows to transfer data over the Internet, is still in its infancy, with broadband Internet speeds of around 15-16 Kbps.

“Our intention is to radically increase this number, but for now it can be used for a variety of applications as the sensors require low data rates,” said Amin.

The Saudi innovation is said to use the polarization of sunlight to transmit data using “smart” glass elements known as two-component liquid crystal blinds (DLS).

Electromagnetic polarization is one of the properties of electromagnetic waves like light.

According to him, polarization allows you to convert sunlight into a sort of predetermined encoding of ones and zeros with the initial data from the local network cable connected to the edge of the “smart” glass.

“The LAN cable connects to the router, and then we can receive this Wi-Fi signal. In our system, the LAN cable will be connected to the edge of the glass, the glass ground wire will be the transmitter, and will only use sunlight instead of using electricity to propagate the signal.”

As reported by Ukrinform, South Korean company Samsung announced that it broke a speed record on the 5G mmWave network.
