The prospect of monitoring our health and wellbeing from inside the home is one of the more fascinating developments in health technology. A team from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) has made a fascinating breakthrough that might allow them to capture this data through walls.
Their work, which is known as RF-Pose, utilizes AI to allow wireless devices to monitor and understand people’s postures and movements, even when a wall separates them. A neural network has been developed to analyze radio signals that bounce off of our bodies, with the software then able to create dynamic stick figures that replicate our movement.
