OPTICAL WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Embark on a new era of secure wireless communication with FACTEM’s cutting-edge "OWL" technology. Meticulously crafted for the aerospace sector, this innovative solution guarantees the utmost security within cockpit communications. Developed through a collaboration involving the Scottish company PURELIFI, the French laboratory XLIM, all under the watchful eye of AIRBUS, the OWL technology has proven its mettle in successful A350 simulator tests as early as December 2021.

UNVEILING THE ADVANTAGES

Optical transmission stands as a beacon of security, eradicating risks of eavesdropping, hacking, or jamming. Its unparalleled advantage lies in the absence of interference, breaking free from constraints related to radiofrequency spectrum congestion. This technology ensures low latency, facilitating the seamless replacement of traditional cables.

In terms of energy efficiency, optical transmission's protocol outshines current LiFi solutions, providing extended autonomy. This not only enhances overall performance but also contributes to increased energy efficiency, making optical transmission the preferred solution for modern communication needs.

BRIDGING CIVIL & MILITARY APPLICATIONS

Optical transmission technology is a game-changer across various domains. In aviation, it ensures swift and precise communication between the cockpit and Air Traffic Control, enhancing flight safety. Cable reduction improves comfort and reduces pilot workload, further elevating safety measures.

On the military front, optical transmission is a strategic choice for crucial communications in contexts like combat vehicle crews, command rooms, and naval operations. Its reliability and security make it indispensable in critical situations.

In industrial settings such as call centers and trading rooms, optical technology thrives. Its interference-free transmission and low latency make it an invaluable asset for real-time communications.

Individually, optical transmission finds its place in devices like virtual reality headsets and gaming headphones. These applications deliver an immersive experience, thanks to the reliability of optical transmission that eliminates latency or interference risks.
