Caption

A team of UW computer science and electrical engineering researchers introduce Interscatter, a novel approach that enables inter-technology communication by converting Bluetooth signals into Wi-Fi transmissions over the air. The system enables power-limited devices such as brain implants, contact lenses and credit cards to communicate with everyday devices such as smartphones and smartwatches. Through Interscatter, UW researchers demonstrate the potential to transform health care and unleash the power of ubiquitous connectivity.
