Could you build this?
No Extracting spatial intelligence from commodity WiFi signals relies on deep RF signal processing, Channel State Information (CSI) firmware extraction, and specialized physics/ML models.
What it would actually take: Requires specialized hardware or modified network card firmware (e.g., ESP32, Intel 5300, Atheros) to extract raw Channel State Information (CSI) or fine timing measurements. Signal processing pipelines (Doppler shift analysis, Fresnel zone modeling, deep neural networks) must then be built to translate phase/amplitude perturbations into spatial tracking. This requires deep RF physics, DSP, and hardware firmware expertise.
