Superhuman vision lets robots see through walls, smoke with new LiDAR-like eyes
PanoRadar is a system created by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania that converts basic radio waves into rich 3D views, allowing robots to see beyond traditional sensor limits. The device processes radio waves using AI algorithms, making it possible for robots to precisely navigate through challenging situations and obstructions where conventional sensors are inadequate. PanoRadar could be used to complement existing sensing technologies to develop more reliable multi-modal perception systems for robots. A video explaining how the technology works is available in the article.
with this technology during disasters at night when people need rescuing but no light, these robots can do the job very well 🙏
yea, its super cool!
