Am I correct that this would require direct line-of-sight for any device using an antenna[0] enabling this? It seems a bit impractical for your typical consumer use-cases if so, but maybe beneficial for some more commercial scenarios.

Would love to know if I am wrong here though! It seems very interesting.

The idea is to put it in the ceiling (lightbulbs).

Light bounce also works, so if you are in a typical room the walls also become antennas.

So if you turn your back on the ceiling light you lose your connection?

I think the idea is you have normal wifi as well, so you should never lose the connection but certain preferred positions will go much faster using light.

Light reflects off most surfaces so not necessarily.
