The Network Revolution Needed For Remote Surgery (thestack.com)
An anonymous reader writes: IEEE researchers are proposing new standards for haptic codecs over software-defined 5G networks in order to achieve the ambitious 1ms latency and reliability required for the 'tactile internet'. It's a trivial consideration when hugging chickens over a network, more serious for applications of telesurgery, and a proposed leap in network quality that seems likely to yield benefits for general data streams as well.
Wow what a sense of entitlement. You expect a pro to be in the room during your surgery? Check your privilege shitlord. There are plenty out there who have no access to such surgery at all.
