Document enough millisecond pulsars and find your position anywhere in the galaxy.
When signal reception and computing power get powerful enough, put it on your wrist.
- xandrius 2y agoProblem is always going to be power rather than computation. I still haven't heard of any major breakthrough in the size of our batteries but when that comes we'll be miniaturizing literally anything.
- ck2 2y agoWe already have solar self-charging watches, power sources by then will also be micro kinetic generators, room temperature vs body temperature generators, and even pulling power from all the radio signals in the room like 5ghz, etc. Maybe they will even use some kind of super capacitors instead of batteries.
