Mangaluru, July 16: A team of young scientists led by Raghava Shetty of RDL Company, sponsored by Sahyadri Innovative Hub, invented a ‘Li-phone’ which works from LED light being used in house.

Speaking to reporters here on Monday, RDL Technologies Private Limited Founder Director and CEO Raghavendra G Shetty said that the Li-phone would function using the light waves of the LED bulbs. Li-phone is a simple, but invented from highly modern technology. This is different from other phones available in the market. Normally, the cell phones work through radio frequency waves. But in Li-phone would work from LED light. The phone would convert the voice or other sounds into electric signals which then transmitted through radio frequencies in the wind. The cell phone would receive such radio frequencies and reach them to the listeners. This was called radio frequency medium. The ultraviolet rays emitting from such radio frequencies would be more dangerous as they might cause dreaded diseases like cancer. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has also warned against this development. So, he has got the patent for this invention. Now, this phone was invented under the sponsorship of Sahyadri Innovation Hub and it could be used in houses and offices, he said.

The SIM card being used in mobile phones should be connected to the cellular gateway under the LED light. All calls and messages of your cell phones will appear on the screen of the Li-phone. The users could use all their cell phone works. The processing of special frequencies of LED light would convert radio frequencies into data and pass on to Li-phone. The manufacturers could use this technology in all cell phones like WiFi technology, he said.

Pradeep Kumar, Ramachandra Shetty, Kanval Karkera and others were present at the press conference.

Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.

The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.

"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.

The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.

There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.

Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.

The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
