Window Of Opportunity

We live in a world of glass. There are windows everywhere connecting you to the view outside, but what if they were also a part of your networked life? If today’s ordinary windows became a part of the high-speed mobile broadband highway, making it easy for you to connect to your social network wherever you are? Imagine the opportunities…

When a window is a part of the high-speed mobile broadband highway

Window of Opportunity is an exploration project where Ericsson tests what happens when ordinary windows are connected and act as connectors. Using a transparent antenna, an ordinary window could easily become part of the mobile broadband network, boosting indoor coverage for a great mobile experience inside buildings.

For commuters, public transport – say when riding the bus – is a time when we want super surf. By connecting the bus windows, our commute to work becomes an effective, extended office or a haven where we can unwind with entertainment on our way home.
