I did a lot of research into the state of Ultra Wideband (UWB) during the early 00s. It utilized time of flight and a wide band of frequencies to do similar things. There were 2-3 major, well funded companies pursuing the tech at the time.
Interestingly those companies never made it commercially, I suppose because the cost of computation was prohibitive and they required special antenna.
It is very exciting that the technology can now be done in a cost effective manner.
Most interesting though is how easily and effective ML was in adding functionality to this implementation. Very cool.
Been following these guys for a while. Fascinating product.
To me though the most obvious but sadly simple use for this is sensor lights in damn toilets. Sit on the toilet for more than a few minutes in some places and the damn lights go out!
