through obstacles to locate and manipulate hidden objects using surface-penetrating wireless signals.<\/li>\n<li>They used generative artificial intelligence (AI) to fill in gaps in reflections and achieved more accurate reconstructions of hidden objects and entire rooms.<\/li>\n<li>The approach uses millimeter wave signals similar to Wi-Fi to penetrate materials, but applies AI to interpret the specular reflections that typically obscure hidden objects.   <\/li>\n<li>They trained generative AI models on synthetic datasets created by adapting existing computer vision images to mimic wireless reflections, to overcome the lack of large existing datasets.<\/li>\n<li>The system, called Wave-Former, achieved nearly 20% better accuracy reconstructing hidden objects compared to existing techniques.<\/li>\n<li>The researchers also developed RISE, a system that reconstructs whole rooms by analyzing &#8220;ghost signals&#8221; from reflections of human motion, and achieved more precise scene reconstructions. <\/li>\n<li>These innovations could enable applications like verifying packed items in warehouses, or allowing robots to understand human locations for improved human-robot interaction.<\/li>\n<li>Future work includes building foundation models for wireless signals to enable a wider range of applications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Generative AI improves a wireless vision system that sees through obstructions | MIT News https:\/\/news.mit.edu\/2026\/generative-ai-improves-wireless-vision-system-sees-through-obstructions-0319&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":197195,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/news.mit.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/202603\/MIT-Scene-Understanding-01-press.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20,19],"class_list":["post-197194","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-generative-ai"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197194"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=197194"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197194\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":197196,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197194\/revisions\/197196"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/197195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=197194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=197194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=197194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
