Google launches Ripple, an open standard that could bring tiny radars to Ford cars and more

Google has been publicly building tiny radar chips since 2015. They can tell you how well you sleep, control a smartwatch, count sheets of paper, and let you play the world’s tiniest violin. But the company’s Soli radar hasn’t necessarily had commercial success, most prominently featuring in an ill-fated Pixel phone. Now, Google has launched an open-source API standard called Ripple that could theoretically bring the tech to additional devices outside Google — perhaps even a car,… Source link

Cowboys bring own heated benches to FedEx Field

Since every little detail and potential advantage matters, the Dallas Cowboys are taking no chances.  The organization brought in its own heated benches for Sunday’s showdown against NFC East rival Washington Football Team at FedEx Field.
