Excellent work. I'm old enough to remember when putting wireless vision systems on a robot required a kilogram at least :-). Of course this would be made even simpler if you integrated the vision sensor, the BLE radio, and the control system into a single die. Something that would be quite accessible to nation states and sufficiently bored billionaires. Ambient energy harvesting has also made great strides so the days of persistent and difficult detect surveillance are getting closer.
- unnouinceput 6y agoWith high power towers for cell network and plenty of devices that emit radio, you can have a wireless power harvester that can be powered forever if you lower you energy consumption below a given threshold. Also was an experiment a while ago where photons were both feeding the camera sensor and used to get the image itself. Granted resolution and clarity was bad but the images still could be used to recognize stuff. Combine that with a smart AI at receiver site and you can have full surveillance, at least for counting bodies (humans + cars) for your desired place (think gathering places like Tienanmen).
