Claim 12:
13. A system, comprising:
a display;
a plurality of radar-based transmitters including:
a first set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters facing inward toward a center of the display and configured to transmit first radio waves, wherein a majority of the first radio waves are transmitted in a direction parallel to the display; and
a second set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters facing outward from the display and configured to transmit second radio waves, wherein a majority of the second radio waves are transmitted in a direction that is perpendicular to the display;

one or more radar-based receivers;
one or more processors configured to initiate operations comprising:
transmitting, from both the first set and the second set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters, radio waves including the first radio waves and the second radio waves into an area in a vicinity of an electronic device;
receiving, at the one or more radar-based receivers, the radio waves reflected off one or more objects in the vicinity of the electronic device;
determining a distance of one or more objects based on the radio waves reflected off the one or more objects in the vicinity of the electronic device; and
based on the determined distance of the one or more objects, transmitting the first radio waves from the first set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters, transmitting the second radio waves from the second set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters, or transmitting both the first radio waves from the first set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters and the second radio waves from the second set of the plurality of radar-based transmitters.
