X-ray vision is coming to smartphones
The Texas Researchers have built a tiny new imaging chip that can detect the outlines of objects through barriers such as cardboard or even wall. Imagine being able to see through walls or inside boxes using your smartphone. While it sounds like science fiction, this capability might soon become a reality. This upcoming technology innovation is similar to the large screening devices we're familiar with at airport security, but it uses electromagnetic frequencies between microwave and infrared, which are considered safe for humans. The chip is powered by CMOS technology , the same technology used in computer processing and memory chips. It's like having Superman's X-ray vision in the palm of your hand, but instead of X-rays, it uses signals at frequencies between 200 gigahertz and 400 gigahertz. However, this technology is cool but not without privacy concerns. Do we really want to live in a world where someone can potentially see through our clothes or handbags just by pointin…
