Anti WIFI wall paper


In 2009, the Japanese created a paint to protect against electromagnetic waves including those from our wireless systens (WIFI), and there also already  was a very expensive wall paper available, but this time a French team from  the polytechnic institute (IPN) of Grenoble in collaboration with the paper technical centre (CTP) have created a wall paper able to filter the electromagnetic waves from the  that is going to be as affordable as a middle range wall paper, when it will be available on the market in 2013.

WIFI pirating protection
One of the primary use of this wall paper, when used strategically is to create a safe space for our WIFI, avoiding pirates to use our network. You will excuse me to skip all the technical explanations, which are not my favourite subject...

Safe WIFI free zones
There are also many concerns about the danger of all the electromagnetic waves, one can be exposed to. This wall paper could be used to create safe zone in the house, in bedroom for example, free of any electromagnetic waves!

The design of the wall paper
A geometrical design is printed with a special ink containing silver particles, which are able to filter up to three frequencies at the same time. This enables to block the waves emitted by our Modems, mobile phones without disturbing normal radio waves or emergency frequencies.
And the other good thing is that if the design isn't pleasing or doesn't match our interiors, it is possible to add another layer of design wall paper without affecting its efficiency!

I think this is an interesting product that shall help us all to reduce our exposure to electromagnetic waves, we just have to wait for it to be available in 2013.
