The Antenna That Refuses to Sit Still

For decades, antennas have been dumb pieces of metal—rigid, fixed, and locked into a single job. MIT engineers just blew that idea apart. Their new “meta-antenna” doesn’t sit idle—it bends, stretches, and contorts itself like a gymnast to switch frequencies, sense motion, and reconfigure itself on demand. No gears. No motors. Just geometry and raw ingenuity.

This isn’t just a better antenna—it’s an entirely new category of technology. Imagine headphones that adjust their wireless mode by flexing their structure, AR glasses that track your movement through tiny shifts in resonance, or wearable gadgets that beam energy wirelessly without swapping hardware. In the future, your antenna won’t just send and receive—it will think, adapt, and respond.

This company will help you become a cyborg

Three years ago, Neil Harbisson, who is completely color-blind, had an antenna implanted in his skull that enables the artist and entrepreneur to sense color via audio vibrations. The long, metallic device, dubbed the ‘eyeborg,’ curves over the top of his head and hovers just above his eye line. It effectively made Harbisson into one of the world’s first cyborgs.
