For all you electronics enthusiasts out there. This looks like a novel way to go about it, if more costly.

More information in the article about what has been achieved so far, but not sure how the average tinkerer could go about implementing something like this so feel free to comment.

Put in one app, it turns into a radar that can drive your car.

Put in another app, and it will cook your lunch with RF.

Put in another app, and it becomes a cell phone.

Put in another app, and it will fly your drone.

You're forgetting Moore's Law. This thing is entirely digital.

I'm scheduled to get a digital pacemaker soon. ;-)

I have no idea what “all digital” would be unless it’s spitting out individual photons or electrons.

Current SDR technology requires such a minimal amount of analog that this would seem to more of an innovation in mixing than any huge breakthrough. Will be implemented in silicon, not by hobbyists.

So what does this mean, wireless internet for the world?

Sounds like a spread spectrum radio

This looks to me like a reporter who doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Digital devices run on extremely low power. To transmit a radio signal to a receiver over some considerable distance requires much more power. There’s simply no way to get around that. There’s something missing from this report that describes how to deal with the physics of radio transmission.

And the beat goes on. This kinda ties in with what we were talking about.
