THE PARADIGM
The Wireless Bottleneck for Real-Time Systems
Conventional wireless was built for a world where the receiver was human.
What Intelligent Machines Actually Require
Links are what allow intelligent systems to sense, decide, and act with confidence
Edge & Physical AI are pushing the wireless limits
SPARK's definition of the Physical AI market context and why deterministic connectivity is its enabling condition.
