New Innovation - Mobile Radar
New Innovation - Mobile Radar
Nokia Research Center (NRC) unveiled a new research concept called Mobile Radar today. With Mobile Radar, you can measure an object’s distance, speed, and direction by using a mobile device. Simply put, one day you can hopefully use your mobile phone as a radar.
In the following video, you’ll see researcher Jani Ollikainen use his hand to adjust the music player’s volume, without ever touching the hardware. In the second demo, you’ll see fellow researchers Terhi Rautiainen and Risto Kaunisto measure the distance, speed, and direction of a human walking. The possibilities are endless with this technology, what other uses can you think of for it?
