This advancement opens new opportunities for AI-powered communication platforms, disaster response systems, and remote IoT device connectivity, especially in regions with unreliable infrastructure. The technology's integration with AI-driven data analytics can enhance real-time monitoring, emergency alerts, and logistics management, offering significant business potential for AI companies specializing in telecommunications, logistics, and public safety.
