I would like to get more research of this sort. Would someone kindly point me towards it? Thanks.

I built and extended this for a college project years ago: https://ocw.mit.edu/resources/res-ll-003-build-a-small-radar...

It's not a bad place to start. And cheap if you want to build your own too (some third party even sells the "cantennas" so you don't have to fiddle with tuning that part (which is kind of infeasible without a network analyzer anyway)).

What this video (or even the paper) doesn't show is the large antenna arrays that are used to capture the heatmaps. A previous paper called "Capturing the human figure through a wall" [1] shows the type of antenna array used and in this paper they use two such antenna arrays to capture two planes to increase the accuracy.

I'm scared. What is a post-privacy world?

A world where you don't have to lie and keep secrets. A world where people freely share knowledge and resources.

freedom is slavery

ignorance is strength

That sounds like a Mark Zuckerberg quote.

Look at the list of names on this paper. We better fix our immigration system for high skill individuals.

Why do you believe any of those names are not American?

They're all American in some measure as they are all living in the US at MIT. But they are clearly immigrants or the descendants of immigrants.

I believe you can achieve the same result in your home by adding a sheet metal roof, metal cabinets, and refrigerators along every wall.

That's probably it. Perhaps I want some decorative brushed aluminum sheet metal instead of drywall...

Tin foil with a good earthing should do the trick.
