The below article got me thinking about whether there could be another potential new application for Akida - Smartphone Radar Threat Detection.
Researchers at Penn State have shown it’s possible to eavesdrop on phone calls using mmWave radar - capturing microscopic earpiece vibrations from up to 3 m away, then reconstructing speech with 60% accuracy via AI models like Whisper.
Speaking of Penn State, BrainChip has worked in collaboration with Penn State, Quantum Ventura & Lockheed on CyberNeuro-RT on network threat detection, but I wonder if the same Akida neuromorphic tech could be adapted in a smartphone for:
- Always-on radar anomaly detection without killing battery.
- Instant countermeasures - jamming or obfuscating suspicious radar signals.
If radar eavesdropping ever becomes a big privacy issue, Akida could potentially open a new consumer security vertical - merging radar sensing with edge AI protection right inside your phone.
Not sure how technically feasible this idea would be, but thought it was worth raising.
IN A NUTSHELL 🔍 Researchers at Penn State developed a method using AI and radar technology to intercept phone calls remotely. ⚠️ The system captures and transcribes conversations from up to 10 feet away with about 60% accuracy, raising privacy concerns. 🔧 Innovations involve adapting the Whisper...
