What are the applications of Geometric Algebra aside from computer graphics?

The GAME2020 event (Geometric Algebra Mini Event) showcased applications in graphics, physics, robotics, neural networks, mathematics. The lectures (from Cambridge, UVA, UPEM, TU Delft, ..) are all available here : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSPBzvBkYjzcQ4eCVAnt...

"Mini Event" = several 1 hour long talks
Was hoping for more (time wise) digestible introductions.
There have been attempts to use it in physics, mainly as a way of unifying the various formalisms that get used there: http://geocalc.clas.asu.edu/html/Overview.html

From a paper (out of a quick google search) [1]:
* neural computing
* image and signal processing
* computer and robot vision
* control problems
I have also seen some work on doing collision checking for robot arm kinematics -- which is a rather nasty problem when done the traditional way.
[edit to add] Also all the classic RF transmission line problems that one would normally solve with Smith Chart techniques map fairly elegantly onto GA(2)
