UWB radio transmissions


2. What might you do with access to UWB radio transmissions if you had a receiver in a car?
Ultra wide band radio transmissions use very low energy levels for short range high-bandwidth communications. I do not know much about the technology, but it might be a technological revolution if perfected. To me it sounds like the technology would be useful for sending digital information. UWB could be useful for the wireless transmission of music from a computer directly to a car. This would eliminate or decrease the use of CDs, iPod, and satellite radio in the car. It also seems like it would have the potential to access almost all the uses the Internet from the car. It would be pretty cool to write an email by just using your voice, and have that transmitted immediately while driving. The possibility of future technology seems endless and I can’t wait to see what the world will be like in ten years.

  1. Or imagine a map projected on your dashboard of all of your facebook friends... look... she's over on the other side of the highway...

    Let's just hope if this happens it will only support safe driving.
