Plz don't, I'm innocent! :meow-floppy: I keep trying to educate and agitate about privacy over here so if you kill me you will lose all that :meow-bug:
The current WiFi standards are kind of at the limit of what they can do, speed wise. The main way IEEE has been able to improve WiFi speeds recently is by basically moving the radio beam around so that it is more focused towards the end user, instead of being non directional. This is kinda the only way they can continue to improve speeds. I think the more important question is does this really need to exist and are the privacy concerns outweighed by people constantly running out of bandwidth, and the answer to that question right now is no, this isn't needed nobody really needs that much speed on wireless and it isn't worth having the real time locations of users for a slight speed increase.
Damn, from the title I thought this was just ultra wideband positioning (i.e. your device locates itself in a building based on beacons, or your main device locates some smaller device you've misplaced). This is about mapping out literally any object in a room?
Am stupid, translate please
WIFI objects will be able to sense the people and things in a place... butchered explanation obviously
Why the fuck that shit "needs" to do that imma fuckin kill you

Yep
They're turning Wi-Fi into radar.
