Lightfleet is an emerging early staged growth company that has invented the world's first free-space broadcast optical interconnect.
Simply put, Lightfleet has created a new way for computers to communicate using light instead of wires. Lightfleet's CorowaveTM technology streamlines computer-to-computer communication by empowering computers to directly talk to each other over short distances through the air with broadcast light.
