Open-Source RuView Uses WiFi Signals for Privacy-First Home Monitoring

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

RuView is an open-source project that turns WiFi signals into a radar-like system for monitoring movement, breathing, and falls without cameras or wearables. Using $6-$10 ESP32 microcontrollers and a local AI model, it tracks 17-joint poses and vitals through walls up to 15 feet. All data stays local, ensuring privacy by design.

Meridian48 take
While impressive technically, real-world accuracy and interference from multiple WiFi sources remain unaddressed—early adopters should temper expectations.
