The US Federal Communications Commission on Friday granted Amazon.com Inc. the approval to use a radar sensor to sense motion and โenable contactless sleep tracing functionalities.โ Amazon had previously asked for permission on June 22 to market a device that uses radar.
The technology is said to record movement in three dimensions, enabling a user to control its features through simple gestures and movements. According to Amazon, the capability could help people โwith mobility, speech, or tactile impairments,โ and it could monitor sleep with a high degree of precision.
