Why we included this project
RuView is an unusual project: it treats ordinary WiFi as a sensor. By reading Channel State Information from cheap ESP32 boards, it picks up how bodies disturb radio waves, then uses that to detect people through walls, count them, estimate breathing and heart rate, and flag activities like falls or sleep stages. The repo includes firmware for the sensor nodes, tooling to record CSI and train models, and integrations with Home Assistant, Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa over MQTT or a Matter bridge. That makes it interesting for privacy-conscious smart-home setups and elderly-care monitoring, where you want presence and vitals without cameras or wearables. A pose-estimation model that derives 17 body keypoints from radio data shows how far the approach can go, and everything runs on edge hardware with no cloud dependency.
