Coded Environments: Data-Driven Indoor Localisation with Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces
Indoor localisation is crucial in wireless communication for tracking and navigation applications. Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) offer a promising solution, enhancing accuracy and reliability. Our study explores integrating RIS with machine learning to revolutionise indoor localisation.
Flattening the load: from flocking birds to reducing peak energy demand in buildings.
How do starling flocks relate to energy use in homes? Can neighbourhoods flatten peaks in demand using simple coordination schemes to help prevent blackouts? A recent paper explores these questions and provides striking answers that could help to design robust and efficient local energy systems.
