Central Michigan University’s computer science faculty work on technologies that they believe will help improve people’s lives.
Patick Seeling isn’t looking at the technical aspects of the G6, but rather how users can use high-speed connections to do things on their devices that aren’t possible on slower networks.
CMU College of Science and Engineering Communications Coordinator Robert Wang said Ceiling is diving into the world of 6G, the speed improvements and new ways of connecting with 5G, and exploring how to use all the new tricks to make life better. It is said that there is.
Scientists are excited about 6G because it not only makes smartphones faster, but also adds “new and improved superpowers to wireless gadgets,” Wang said.
“Think of it like upgrading your regular bike to a super-fast self-driving electric bike. An electric bike is faster, more efficient, and can do things your old bike couldn’t do.” he said, adding that new and flashy tricks are being devised. For example, smart he uses surfaces to make sure the signal gets where it needs to go as quickly as possible.
Seeling is working to make CMU’s network more flexible, bringing humans and machines together. This not only speeds up downloads but also allows people to operate their gadgets more efficiently.
Seeling and his colleagues are working on “negative latency,” which Wang says is a bit of technological wizardry that can make everything even faster.
“They’re calling this flashy collaboration a step toward a ‘metaverse,’ a hyper-connected world that goes beyond just video calls,” he said. “Imagine a world where you and friends around the world could learn new skills together as if you were in the same room,” Wang said. “Or, doctors can help patients far away without having to be there.”
One problem, Wang said, is that for human touch to feel real, it has to react very quickly, and CMU is working with several German experts to make the gadget respond almost instantly. They are currently researching ways to do this.
As technology experts work to deploy 6G, Wong said the hope is that someday devices will not only connect faster, but also become “indispensable allies.”
