"6G Visible Light Communication (VLC)... flashes of light to transmit information... uses light from LEDs that can turn on and off, up to one million times per second... leakage of energy in VLC systems, because the LEDs also emit radio waves... harvest waste energy from VLC using human body as antenna... anything with camera, like smartphones, tablets or laptops, could be receiver... power wearable devices, or even, perhaps, larger electronics"
