Tiny Radar Chip for Gesture Recognition: Google ATAP’s Project Soli
« on: Fri, 24 June 2016, 13:20:08 »
The radar module is 8mm x 10mm, and that includes the antenna array.
It's more precise than any other 3D hand-gesture sensor .

Well, it might be "more precise" but I'm not sure most folks need it. This guy isn't having any trouble with hand gestures (among other controls).

The radar can see through the key caps.
Put the radar array under the key caps near the index-finger key.
That way the user doesn't have to reach for a mouse.

I've tried projectors a while back.. light pollution was the main problem.. screen wise..

But another problem is that with projection,  if everything else is dark besides the screen, this is not good, because then when you hit a bright scene it hurts your eyes,  and when it suddenly goes dark, you can't see anything..



IMHO.. In retrospect,  the Theater is only dark, because it HAS TO BE dark..

Being dark is not actually a Desired feature in terms of Visuals..  It's a throwback, similar to black text on white paper..

It was a limitation of video technology of the time..   NOT a desired trait...
