The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

But all day, we try to figure out how to put guns on humans or mannequins, and we try to figure out how to detect them.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

So how does it work?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

Is it shooting frequency and then detecting the response when it hits something solid?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

Yeah, that's exactly what it's doing.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

It's basically shooting out a radio frequency.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

It's like electromagnetic.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

It's like a little wave format that goes out.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

Very similar to how your Wi-Fi works in your home, or 5G.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

Same type of concept.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

It's just on a higher, different radio frequency level.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

But think about your Wi-Fi.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

And you want an order of 20x or so.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

The radio frequency level, it's operating in a few gigahertz, something like that.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

But we operate at much higher frequencies, like 300 gigahertz.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

So you want to whatever, call it 50, maybe it's 50, 100 times this.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

And then basically, it shoots this out.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

And this waveform comes back.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

And we review it.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

And we look how long it took to come back.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#292 Brett Adcock - Shawn Ryan Meets a Humanoid Robot

And we use beamforming and a couple other techniques to figure out what happened.
