Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University were able to create full-body images of subjects using simple Wi-Fi routers. The technology could revolutionize healthcare, security, gaming, imaging, and many other industries. However, it could present many privacy issues as the technology can monitor people's movements through walls without their knowledge or consent. The technique involves analyzing the amplitude and phase of Wi-Fi signals to find interference and then using AI algorithms to produce an image.
Gravity batteries store excess energy from the grid by raising a mass to generate gravitational potential energy. The mass can be dropped to convert potential energy into electricity through an electric generator. Using abandoned mines to operate gravity batteries could provide enough energy to match the entire planet's current daily electricity consumption. There are likely millions of abandoned mines around the world that can be relatively cheaply converted into gravity batteries.
