    "A red-black tree is a self-balancing binary search tree. The motivation for this is that the benefits of O(logN) search, insertion, and deletion that a binary tree provides us will disappear if we let the tree get too "imbalanced" (e.g. there are too many nodes on one side of the tree or some branches have a depth that is way out of proportion to the average branch depth). This imbalance will occur if we don't adjust the tree after inserting or deleting nodes, hence our need for self-balancing c"

I had the concept I came up with from our hardware advancements to sense human movement (project Soli). The idea was that discovery could be proximal and would change based on a user’s distance from the device. Thus the user would see something larger and more holistic if say 10 ft away vs 4 ft away where they would see more thing"
