Breaking the Flat Horizon: Unlocking the Sixth Sense of Wireless Networks

Sai Pavan Deram, Estudiante de doctorado en IMDEA Networks Institute, Madrid, España

In-house Presentation

For centuries, humanity lived under the illusion of a flat Earth. It wasn’t a trick of the mind, but a physical limit of our perspective. Our human field of vision was simply too small compared to the massive sphere we were standing on. It wasn’t until we scaled up our view and looked down from space that we shattered the illusion and saw our planet’s true, curved geometry.

Believe it or not, the invisible Wi-Fi and cellular waves constantly flowing through the room around you have lived in a flattened reality.

What if we could help our networks to see the true, curved geometry of reality? Could the very same signals we use to watch videos and send messages be secretly transformed to sense our presence, track our movements, and see exactly where we are in a room?

Join us on 18th March at 13:00 in the auditorium at IMDEA Networks. Together, we will dive into the new frontier of Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC), discovering how clever algorithms and budget-friendly hardware are unlocking the hidden 3D dimensions of everyday wireless signals, and turning our networks into an all-seeing sixth sense.
