#4 If it can see through walls it can see through burkas. They will have to kill all their women to prevent the dishonor of us infidels seeing them naked.

"UWB has very low power requirements so it can see through any concrete structure and track, in 3-D, the movement o people, Johnson said."

Okay, mount the sensors on a drone, and connect the audio so that we can identify anyone when they are addressed by name. Also run the audio through voice comparison at the NSA, and see if we can get an ident from there.

Praise Allan you can be a member of the Talibs unless you STANK like HELL!!

We had people sniffers and sensors for movement all along the Network of Trails in Laos and Cambodia back in the 60s. Camouflaged in several models and no bigger than a 'Roll of Life-Savers w/some mud on them' IIRC.

So Imagine what tech we have now, LOL!
