I'm sure the folks at Axon are looking for a way to do this. Bodycams invariably store images to upload opportunistically. The limiting factor after 3d/virtual reality becomes reality are bandwidth and latency. How much and how quickly can data be moved that represents the real world in real time? We will damn sure solve the "if a tree fell in the forest" nonsense Modeling a 3D world in real time via CDNs sure would save moving scenery around the Internet... CDNs can update differential in real time (no speed of light delay) via a quantum network. It looks like we're getting close to making THAT a reality: https://phys.org/news/2021-01-world-quantum-network.html The future looks fun!

Many companies are working on versions of what is discussed; even if half of those companies efforts come to fruition, the future will effect a transitional jump.
If that occurs, whither goes Amateur Radio? At a minimum, every radio manufacturer will be behind the curve.
