“We developed a deep neural network that maps the phase and amplitude of WiFi signals to UV coordinates within 24 human regions. The results of the study reveal that our model can estimate the dense pose of multiple subjects, with comparable performance to image-based approaches, by utilizing WiFi signals as the only input.”

This article is a year old. Do we have posting standards in here?

[–] Chozo@kbin.social 16 points 9 months ago

The tech is even far older than the article. I remember seeing this being demo'd at least a decade ago. Though, it looks like the fidelity has improved significantly from the early proof-of-concept videos that were floating around for a while.

Sorry, I didn't notice the date when I posted. I can take it down if requested.

Nah, you're good. For some of us it's the first time seeing it, and I really liked reading what people far more familiar with this tech have to say about it here, including that it's old news for them. So thank you, seriously, for posting it.
