π RuView

See through walls with WiFi + Ai

Perceive the world through signals. No cameras. No wearables. No Internet. Just physics.

π RuView is an edge AI perception system that learns directly from the environment around it.

Instead of relying on cameras or cloud models, it observes whatever signals exist in a space such as WiFi, radio waves across the spectrum, motion patterns, vibration, sound, or other sensory inputs and builds an understanding of what is happening locally.

Built on top of RuVector Self Learning Vector Memory system and Cognitum.One , the project became widely known for its implementation of WiFi DensePose — a sensing technique first explored in academic research such as Carnegie Mellon University’s DensePose From WiFi work. That research demonstrated that WiFi signals can be used to reconstruct human pose.

RuView extends that concept into a practical edge system. By analyzing Channel State Information (CSI) disturbances caused by human movement, RuView reconstructs body position, breathing rate, heart rate, and presence in real time using physics-based signal processing and machine learning.

Unlike research systems that rely on synchronized cameras for training, RuView is designed to operate entirely from radio signals and self-learned embeddings at the edge.

The system runs entirely on inexpensive hardware such as an ESP32 sensor mesh (as low as ~$1 per node). Small programmable edge modules analyze signals locally and learn the RF signature of a room over time, allowing the system to separate the environment from the activity happening inside it.

Because RuView learns in proximity to the signals it observes, it improves as it operates. Each deployment develops a local model of its surroundings and continuously adapts without requiring cameras, labeled data, or cloud infrastructure.

In practice this means ordinary environments gain a new kind of spatial awareness. Rooms, buildings, and devices begin to sense presence, movement, and vital activity using the signals that already fill the space.

Built for low-power edge applications

Edge modules are small programs that run directly on the ESP32 sensor — no internet needed, no cloud fees, instant response.

# Open http://localhost:3000

[!NOTE] CSI-capable hardware required. Pose estimation, vital signs, and through-wall sensing rely on Channel State Information (CSI) — per-subcarrier amplitude and phase data that standard consumer WiFi does not expose. You need CSI-capable hardware (ESP32-S3 or a research NIC) for full functionality. Consumer WiFi laptops can only provide RSSI-based presence detection, which is significantly less capable.

Hardware options for live CSI capture:

🔬 How It Works

WiFi routers flood every room with radio waves. When a person moves — or even breathes — those waves scatter differently. WiFi DensePose reads that scattering pattern and reconstructs what happened:

WiFi Router → radio waves pass through room → hit human body → scatter
    ↓
ESP32 mesh (4-6 nodes) captures CSI on channels 1/6/11 via TDM protocol
    ↓
Multi-Band Fusion: 3 channels × 56 subcarriers = 168 virtual subcarriers per link
    ↓
Multistatic Fusion: N×(N-1) links → attention-weighted cross-viewpoint embedding
    ↓
Coherence Gate: accept/reject measurements → stable for days without tuning
    ↓
Signal Processing: Hampel, SpotFi, Fresnel, BVP, spectrogram → clean features
    ↓
AI Backbone (RuVector): attention, graph algorithms, compression, field model
    ↓
Signal-Line Protocol (CRV): 6-stage gestalt → sensory → topology → coherence → search → model
    ↓
Neural Network: processed signals → 17 body keypoints + vital signs + room model
    ↓
Output: real-time pose, breathing, heart rate, room fingerprint, drift alerts

No training cameras required — the Self-Learning system (ADR-024) bootstraps from raw WiFi data alone. MERIDIAN (ADR-027) ensures the model works in any room, not just the one it trained in.

🏢 Use Cases & Applications

WiFi sensing works anywhere WiFi exists. No new hardware in most cases — just software on existing access points or a $8 ESP32 add-on. Because there are no cameras, deployments avoid privacy regulations (GDPR video, HIPAA imaging) by design.

Scaling: Each AP distinguishes ~3-5 people (56 subcarriers). Multi-AP multiplies linearly — a 4-AP retail mesh covers ~15-20 occupants. No hard software limit; the practical ceiling is signal physics.

	Why WiFi sensing wins	Traditional alternative
🔒	No video, no GDPR/HIPAA imaging rules	Cameras require consent, signage, data retention policies
🧱	Works through walls, shelving, debris	Cameras need line-of-sight per room
🌙	Works in total darkness	Cameras need IR or visible light
💰	$0-$8 per zone (existing WiFi or ESP32)	Camera systems: $200-$2,000 per zone
🔌	WiFi already deployed everywhere	PIR/radar sensors require new wiring per room

🤖 Robotics & Industrial — Autonomous systems, manufacturing, android spatial awareness

🧠 Self-Learning WiFi AI (ADR-024) — Adaptive recognition, self-optimization, and intelligent anomaly detection

Every WiFi signal that passes through a room creates a unique fingerprint of that space. WiFi-DensePose already reads these fingerprints to track people, but until now it threw away the internal “understanding” after each reading. The Self-Learning WiFi AI captures and preserves that understanding as compact, reusable vectors — and continuously optimizes itself for each new environment.

What it does in plain terms:

Turns any WiFi signal into a 128-number “fingerprint” that uniquely describes what’s happening in a room
Learns entirely on its own from raw WiFi data — no cameras, no labeling, no human supervision needed
Recognizes rooms, detects intruders, identifies people, and classifies activities using only WiFi
Runs on an $8 ESP32 chip (the entire model fits in 55 KB of memory)
Produces both body pose tracking AND environment fingerprints in a single computation

Key Capabilities

What	How it works	Why it matters
Self-supervised learning	The model watches WiFi signals and teaches itself what “similar” and “different” look like, without any human-labeled data	Deploy anywhere — just plug in a WiFi sensor and wait 10 minutes
Room identification	Each room produces a distinct WiFi fingerprint pattern	Know which room someone is in without GPS or beacons
Anomaly detection	An unexpected person or event creates a fingerprint that doesn’t match anything seen before	Automatic intrusion and fall detection as a free byproduct
Person re-identification	Each person disturbs WiFi in a slightly different way, creating a personal signature	Track individuals across sessions without cameras
Environment adaptation	MicroLoRA adapters (1,792 parameters per room) fine-tune the model for each new space	Adapts to a new room with minimal data — 93% less than retraining from scratch
Memory preservation	EWC++ regularization remembers what was learned during pretraining	Switching to a new task doesn’t erase prior knowledge
Hard-negative mining	Training focuses on the most confusing examples to learn faster	Better accuracy with the same amount of training data

WiFi Signal [56 channels] → Transformer + Graph Neural Network
                                  ├→ 128-dim environment fingerprint (for search + identification)
                                  └→ 17-joint body pose (for human tracking)

Quick Start

# Step 2: Fine-tune with pose labels for full capability
cargo run -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server -- --train --dataset data/mmfi/ --epochs 100 --save-rvf model.rvf

# Step 3: Use the model — extract fingerprints from live WiFi
cargo run -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server -- --model model.rvf --embed

# Step 4: Search — find similar environments or detect anomalies
cargo run -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server -- --model model.rvf --build-index env

📡 Signal Processing & Sensing — From raw WiFi frames to vital signs

The signal processing stack transforms raw WiFi Channel State Information into actionable human sensing data. Starting from 56-192 subcarrier complex values captured at 20 Hz, the pipeline applies research-grade algorithms (SpotFi phase correction, Hampel outlier rejection, Fresnel zone modeling) to extract breathing rate, heart rate, motion level, and multi-person body pose — all in pure Rust with zero external ML dependencies.

🧠 Models & Training — DensePose pipeline, RVF containers, SONA adaptation, RuVector integration

The neural pipeline uses a graph transformer with cross-attention to map CSI feature matrices to 17 COCO body keypoints and DensePose UV coordinates. Models are packaged as single-file .rvf containers with progressive loading (Layer A instant, Layer B warm, Layer C full). SONA (Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture) enables continuous on-device adaptation via micro-LoRA + EWC++ without catastrophic forgetting. Signal processing is powered by 5 RuVector crates (v2.0.4) with 7 integration points across the Rust workspace, plus 6 additional vendored crates for inference and graph intelligence.

🌍 Cross-Environment Generalization (ADR-027 — Project MERIDIAN) — Train once, deploy in any room without retraining

What	How it works	Why it matters
Gradient Reversal Layer	An adversarial classifier tries to guess which room the signal came from; the main network is trained to fool it	Forces the model to discard room-specific shortcuts
Geometry Encoder (FiLM)	Transmitter/receiver positions are Fourier-encoded and injected as scale+shift conditioning on every layer	The model knows where the hardware is, so it doesn’t need to memorize layout
Hardware Normalizer	Resamples any chipset’s CSI to a canonical 56-subcarrier format with standardized amplitude	Intel 5300 and ESP32 data look identical to the model
Virtual Domain Augmentation	Generates synthetic environments with random room scale, wall reflections, scatterers, and noise profiles	Training sees 1000s of rooms even with data from just 2-3
Rapid Adaptation (TTT)	Contrastive test-time training with LoRA weight generation from a few unlabeled frames	Zero-shot deployment — the model self-tunes on arrival
Cross-Domain Evaluator	Leave-one-out evaluation across all training environments with per-environment PCK/OKS metrics	Proves generalization, not just memorization

📡 Multistatic Sensing (ADR-029/030/031 — Project RuvSense + RuView) — Multiple ESP32 nodes fuse viewpoints for production-grade pose, tracking, and exotic sensing

A single WiFi receiver can track people, but has blind spots — limbs behind the torso are invisible, depth is ambiguous, and two people at similar range create overlapping signals. RuvSense solves this by coordinating multiple ESP32 nodes into a multistatic mesh where every node acts as both transmitter and receiver, creating N×(N-1) measurement links from N devices.

What it does in plain terms:

4 ESP32-S3 nodes ($48 total) provide 12 TX-RX measurement links covering 360 degrees
Each node hops across WiFi channels 1/6/11, tripling effective bandwidth from 20→60 MHz
Coherence gating rejects noisy frames automatically — no manual tuning, stable for days
Two-person tracking at 20 Hz with zero identity swaps over 10 minutes
The room itself becomes a persistent model — the system remembers, predicts, and explains

Three ADRs, one pipeline:

ADR	Codename	What it adds
ADR-029	RuvSense	Channel hopping, TDM protocol, multi-node fusion, coherence gating, 17-keypoint Kalman tracker
ADR-030	RuvSense Field	Room electromagnetic eigenstructure (SVD), RF tomography, longitudinal drift detection, intention prediction, gesture recognition, adversarial detection
ADR-031	RuView	Cross-viewpoint attention with geometric bias, viewpoint diversity optimization, embedding-level fusion

🔮 Signal-Line Protocol (CRV)

6-Stage CSI Signal Line

Maps the CRV (Coordinate Remote Viewing) signal-line methodology to WiFi CSI processing via ruvector-crv:

Stage	CRV Name	WiFi CSI Mapping	ruvector Component
I	Ideograms	Raw CSI gestalt (manmade/natural/movement/energy)	Poincare ball hyperbolic embeddings
II	Sensory	Amplitude textures, phase patterns, frequency colors	Multi-head attention vectors
III	Dimensional	AP mesh spatial topology, node geometry	GNN graph topology
IV	Emotional/AOL	Coherence gating — signal vs noise separation	SNN temporal encoding
V	Interrogation	Cross-stage probing — query pose against CSI history	Differentiable search
VI	3D Model	Composite person estimation, MinCut partitioning	Graph partitioning

Cross-Session Convergence: When multiple AP clusters observe the same person, CRV convergence analysis finds agreement in their signal embeddings — directly mapping to cross-room identity continuity.

use wifi_densepose_ruvector::crv::WifiCrvPipeline;

let mut pipeline = WifiCrvPipeline::new(WifiCrvConfig::default());
pipeline.create_session("room-a", "person-001")?;

// Process CSI frames through 6-stage pipeline
let result = pipeline.process_csi_frame("room-a", &amplitudes, &phases)?;
// result.gestalt = Movement, confidence = 0.87
// result.sensory_embedding = [0.12, -0.34, ...]

// Cross-room identity matching via convergence
let convergence = pipeline.find_cross_room_convergence("person-001", 0.75)?;

Architecture:

CsiGestaltClassifier — Maps CSI amplitude/phase patterns to 6 gestalt types
CsiSensoryEncoder — Extracts texture/color/temperature/luminosity features from subcarriers
MeshTopologyEncoder — Encodes AP mesh as GNN graph (Stage III)
CoherenceAolDetector — Maps coherence gate states to AOL noise detection (Stage IV)
WifiCrvPipeline — Orchestrates all 6 stages into unified sensing session

📡 Signal Processing & Sensing

📡 ESP32-S3 Hardware Pipeline (ADR-018) — 28 Hz CSI streaming, flash & provision

A single ESP32-S3 board (~$9) captures WiFi signal data 28 times per second and streams it over UDP. A host server can visualize and record the data, but the ESP32 can also run on its own — detecting presence, measuring breathing and heart rate, and alerting on falls without any server at all.

Multi-node mesh

For better accuracy and room coverage, deploy 3-6 nodes with time-division multiplexing (TDM) so they take turns transmitting:

# Node 0 of a 3-node mesh
python firmware/esp32-csi-node/provision.py --port COM7 \
  --ssid "YourWiFi" --password "secret" --target-ip 192.168.1.20 \
  --node-id 0 --tdm-slot 0 --tdm-total 3

# Node 1
python firmware/esp32-csi-node/provision.py --port COM8 \
  --ssid "YourWiFi" --password "secret" --target-ip 192.168.1.20 \
  --node-id 1 --tdm-slot 1 --tdm-total 3

Nodes can also hop across WiFi channels (1, 6, 11) to increase sensing bandwidth — configured via ADR-029 channel hopping.

On-device intelligence (v0.3.0-alpha)

The alpha firmware can analyze signals locally and send compact results instead of raw data. This means the ESP32 works standalone — no server needed for basic sensing. Disabled by default for backward compatibility.

Tier	What it does	RAM used
0	Off — streams raw CSI only (same as v0.2.0)	0 KB
1	Cleans up signals, picks the best subcarriers, compresses data (saves 30-50% bandwidth)	~30 KB
2	Everything in Tier 1 + detects presence, measures breathing and heart rate, detects falls	~33 KB
3	Everything in Tier 2 + runs custom WASM modules (gesture recognition, intrusion detection, and 63 more)	~160 KB/module

Enable without reflashing — just reprovision:

# Turn on Tier 2 (vitals) on an already-flashed node
python firmware/esp32-csi-node/provision.py --port COM7 \
  --ssid "YourWiFi" --password "secret" --target-ip 192.168.1.20 \
  --edge-tier 2

# Fine-tune detection thresholds (fall-thresh in milli-units: 15000 = 15.0 rad/s²)
python firmware/esp32-csi-node/provision.py --port COM7 \
  --edge-tier 2 --vital-int 500 --fall-thresh 15000 --subk-count 16

When Tier 2 is active, the node sends a 32-byte vitals packet once per second containing: presence, motion level, breathing BPM, heart rate BPM, confidence scores, fall alert flag, and occupancy count.

🚨 WiFi-Mat: Disaster Response — Search & rescue, START triage, 3D localization

WiFi signals penetrate non-metallic debris (concrete, wood, drywall) where cameras and thermal sensors cannot reach. The WiFi-Mat module (wifi-densepose-mat, 139 tests) uses CSI analysis to detect survivors trapped under rubble, classify their condition using the START triage protocol, and estimate their 3D position — giving rescue teams actionable intelligence within seconds of deployment.

Capability	How It Works	Performance Target
Breathing Detection	Bandpass 0.07-1.0 Hz + Fresnel zone modeling detects chest displacement of 5-10mm at 5 GHz	4-60 BPM, <500ms latency
Heartbeat Detection	Micro-Doppler shift extraction from fine-grained CSI phase variation	Via ruvector-temporal-tensor
3D Localization	Multi-AP triangulation + CSI fingerprint matching + depth estimation through rubble layers	3-5m penetration
START Triage	Ensemble classifier votes on breathing + movement + vital stability → P1-P4 priority	<1% false negative
Zone Scanning	16+ concurrent scan zones with periodic re-scan and audit logging	Full disaster site

Triage classification (START protocol compatible):

Status	Color	Detection Criteria	Priority
Immediate	Red	Breathing detected, no movement	P1
Delayed	Yellow	Movement + breathing, stable vitals	P2
Minor	Green	Strong movement, responsive patterns	P3
Deceased	Black	No vitals for >30 min continuous scan	P4

Deployment modes: portable (single TX/RX handheld), distributed (multiple APs around collapse site), drone-mounted (UAV scanning), vehicle-mounted (mobile command post).

use wifi_densepose_mat::{DisasterResponse, DisasterConfig, DisasterType, ScanZone, ZoneBounds};

let config = DisasterConfig::builder()

response.add_zone(ScanZone::new("North Wing", ZoneBounds::rectangle(0.0, 0.0, 30.0, 20.0)))?;

Safety guarantees: fail-safe defaults (assume life present on ambiguous signals), redundant multi-algorithm voting, complete audit trail, offline-capable (no network required).

🔬 SOTA Signal Processing (ADR-014) — 6 research-grade algorithms

The signal processing layer bridges the gap between raw commodity WiFi hardware output and research-grade sensing accuracy. Each algorithm addresses a specific limitation of naive CSI processing — from hardware-induced phase corruption to environment-dependent multipath interference. All six are implemented in wifi-densepose-signal/src/ with deterministic tests and no mock data.

Algorithm	What It Does	Why It Matters	Math	Source
Conjugate Multiplication	Multiplies CSI antenna pairs: `H₁[k] × conj(H₂[k])`	Cancels CFO, SFO, and packet detection delay that corrupt raw phase — preserves only environment-caused phase differences	`CSI_ratio[k] = H₁[k] * conj(H₂[k])`	SpotFi (SIGCOMM 2015)
Hampel Filter	Replaces outliers using running median ± scaled MAD	Z-score uses mean/std which are corrupted by the very outliers it detects (masking effect). Hampel uses median/MAD, resisting up to 50% contamination	`σ̂ = 1.4826 × MAD`	Standard DSP; WiGest (2015)
Fresnel Zone Model	Models signal variation from chest displacement crossing Fresnel zone boundaries	Zero-crossing counting fails in multipath-rich environments. Fresnel predicts where breathing should appear based on TX-RX-body geometry	`ΔΦ = 2π × 2Δd / λ`, `A = \|sin(ΔΦ/2)\|`	FarSense (MobiCom 2019)
CSI Spectrogram	Sliding-window FFT (STFT) per subcarrier → 2D time-frequency matrix	Breathing = 0.2-0.4 Hz band, walking = 1-2 Hz, static = noise. 2D structure enables CNN spatial pattern recognition that 1D features miss	`S[t,f] = \|Σₙ x[n] w[n-t] e^{-j2πfn}\|²`	Standard since 2018
Subcarrier Selection	Ranks subcarriers by motion sensitivity (variance ratio) and selects top-K	Not all subcarriers respond to motion — some sit in multipath nulls. Selecting the 10-20 most sensitive improves SNR by 6-10 dB	`sensitivity[k] = var_motion / var_static`	WiDance (MobiCom 2017)
Body Velocity Profile	Extracts velocity distribution from Doppler shifts across subcarriers	BVP is domain-independent — same velocity profile regardless of room layout, furniture, or AP placement. Basis for cross-environment recognition	`BVP[v,t] = Σₖ \|STFTₖ[v,t]\|`	Widar 3.0 (MobiSys 2019)

Processing pipeline order: Raw CSI → Conjugate multiplication (phase cleaning) → Hampel filter (outlier removal) → Subcarrier selection (top-K) → CSI spectrogram (time-frequency) → Fresnel model (breathing) + BVP (activity)

🤖 AI Backbone: RuVector — Attention, graph algorithms, and edge-AI compression powering the sensing pipeline

Raw WiFi signals are noisy, redundant, and environment-dependent. RuVector is the AI intelligence layer that transforms them into clean, structured input for the DensePose neural network. It uses attention mechanisms to learn which signals to trust, graph algorithms that automatically discover which WiFi channels are sensitive to body motion, and compressed representations that make edge inference possible on an $8 microcontroller.

Without RuVector, WiFi DensePose would need hand-tuned thresholds, brute-force matrix math, and 4x more memory — making real-time edge inference impossible.

    +-- ruvector-attn-mincut ----- Which time frames are signal vs noise? (attention-gated filtering)
    +-- ruvector-attention ------- How to fuse multi-antenna data? (learned weighted aggregation)

                         --> ruvector-solver ------------> physics-based localization

The wifi-densepose-ruvector crate (ADR-017) connects all 7 integration points:

AI Capability	What It Replaces	RuVector Crate	Result
Self-optimizing channel selection	Hand-tuned thresholds that break when rooms change	`ruvector-mincut`	Graph min-cut adapts to any environment automatically
Attention-based signal cleaning	Fixed energy cutoffs that miss subtle breathing	`ruvector-attn-mincut`	Learned gating amplifies body signals, suppresses noise
Learned signal fusion	Simple averaging where one bad channel corrupts all	`ruvector-attention`	Transformer-style attention downweights corrupted channels
Physics-informed localization	Expensive nonlinear solvers	`ruvector-solver`	Sparse least-squares Fresnel geometry in real-time
O(1) survivor triangulation	O(N^3) matrix inversion	`ruvector-solver`	Neumann series linearization for instant position updates
75% memory compression	13.4 MB breathing buffers that overflow edge devices	`ruvector-temporal-tensor`	Tiered 3-8 bit quantization fits 60s of vitals in 3.4 MB

🧬 Training & Fine-Tuning — MM-Fi/Wi-Pose pre-training, SONA adaptation

The training pipeline implements 8 phases in pure Rust (7,832 lines, zero external ML dependencies). It trains a graph transformer with cross-attention to map CSI feature matrices to 17 COCO body keypoints and DensePose UV coordinates — following the approach from the CMU “DensePose From WiFi” paper (arXiv:2301.00250). RuVector crates provide the core building blocks: ruvector-attention for cross-attention layers, ruvector-mincut for multi-person matching, and ruvector-temporal-tensor for CSI buffer compression.

Three-tier data strategy:

Tier	Method	Purpose	RuVector Integration
1. Pre-train	MM-Fi + Wi-Pose public datasets	Cross-environment generalization (multi-subject, multi-room)	`ruvector-temporal-tensor` compresses CSI windows (114→56 subcarrier resampling)
2. Fine-tune	ESP32 CSI + camera pseudo-labels	Environment-specific multipath adaptation	`ruvector-solver` for Fresnel geometry, `ruvector-attn-mincut` for subcarrier gating
3. SONA adapt	Micro-LoRA (rank-4) + EWC++	Continuous on-device learning without catastrophic forgetting	SONA architecture (Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture)

Training pipeline components:

Phase	Module	What It Does	RuVector Crate
1	`dataset.rs` (850 lines)	MM-Fi `.npy` + Wi-Pose `.mat` loaders, subcarrier resampling (114→56, 30→56), windowing	ruvector-temporal-tensor
2	`graph_transformer.rs` (855 lines)	COCO BodyGraph (17 kp, 16 edges), AntennaGraph, multi-head CrossAttention, GCN message passing	ruvector-attention
3	`trainer.rs` (881 lines)	6-term composite loss (MSE, CE, UV, temporal, bone, symmetry), SGD+momentum, cosine+warmup, PCK/OKS	ruvector-mincut (person matching)
4	`sona.rs` (639 lines)	LoRA adapters (A×B delta), EWC++ Fisher regularization, EnvironmentDetector (3-sigma drift)	sona
5	`sparse_inference.rs` (753 lines)	NeuronProfiler hot/cold partitioning, SparseLinear (skip cold rows), INT8/FP16 quantization	ruvector-sparse-inference
6	`rvf_pipeline.rs` (1,027 lines)	Progressive 3-layer loader, HNSW index, OverlayGraph, `RvfModelBuilder`	ruvector-core (HNSW)
7	`rvf_container.rs` (914 lines)	Binary container format, 6+ segment types, CRC32 integrity	rvf
8	`main.rs` integration	`--train`, `--model`, `--progressive` CLI flags, REST endpoints	—

SONA (Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture) — the continuous adaptation system:

Component	What It Does	Why It Matters
Micro-LoRA (rank-4)	Trains small A×B weight deltas instead of full weights	100x fewer parameters to update → runs on ESP32
EWC++ (Fisher matrix)	Penalizes changes to important weights from previous environments	Prevents catastrophic forgetting when moving between rooms
EnvironmentDetector	Monitors CSI feature drift with 3-sigma threshold	Auto-triggers adaptation when the model is moved to a new space
Best-epoch snapshot	Saves best validation loss weights, restores before export	Prevents shipping overfit final-epoch parameters

# Pre-train on MM-Fi dataset
./target/release/sensing-server --train --dataset data/ --dataset-type mmfi --epochs 100

# Train and export to RVF in one step
./target/release/sensing-server --train --dataset data/ --epochs 100 --save-rvf model.rvf

# Via Docker (no toolchain needed)
docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/data:/data ruvnet/wifi-densepose:latest \

QEMU Firmware Testing (ADR-061) — 9-Layer Platform

Test ESP32-S3 firmware without physical hardware using Espressif’s QEMU fork. The platform provides 9 layers of testing capability:

Layer	Capability	Script / Config
1	Mock CSI generator (10 physics-based scenarios)	`firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/mock_csi.c`
2	Single-node QEMU runner + UART validation (16 checks)	`scripts/qemu-esp32s3-test.sh`, `scripts/validate_qemu_output.py`
3	Multi-node TDM mesh simulation (TAP networking)	`scripts/qemu-mesh-test.sh`, `scripts/validate_mesh_test.py`
4	GDB remote debugging (VS Code integration)	`.vscode/launch.json`
5	Code coverage (gcov/lcov via apptrace)	`firmware/esp32-csi-node/sdkconfig.coverage`
6	Fuzz testing (libFuzzer + ASAN/UBSAN)	`firmware/esp32-csi-node/test/fuzz_*.c`
7	NVS provisioning matrix (14 configs)	`scripts/generate_nvs_matrix.py`
8	Snapshot regression (sub-second VM restore)	`scripts/qemu-snapshot-test.sh`
9	Chaos testing (fault injection + health monitoring)	`scripts/qemu-chaos-test.sh`, `scripts/inject_fault.py`, `scripts/check_health.py`

# Quick start: build + run + validate
cd firmware/esp32-csi-node
idf.py -D SDKCONFIG_DEFAULTS="sdkconfig.defaults;sdkconfig.qemu" build

# Single-node test (builds, merges flash, runs QEMU, validates output)
bash scripts/qemu-esp32s3-test.sh

# Multi-node mesh test (3 QEMU instances with TDM)
sudo bash scripts/qemu-mesh-test.sh 3

# Fuzz testing (60 seconds per target)
cd firmware/esp32-csi-node/test && make all CC=clang && make run_serialize FUZZ_DURATION=60

# Chaos testing (fault injection resilience)
bash scripts/qemu-chaos-test.sh --faults all --duration 120

10 test scenarios: empty room, static person, walking, fall, multi-person, channel sweep, MAC filter, ring overflow, boundary RSSI, zero-length frames.

14 NVS configs: default, WiFi-only, full ADR-060, edge tiers 0/1/2, TDM mesh, WASM signed/unsigned, 5GHz, boundary max/min, power-save, empty-strings.

CI: GitHub Actions workflow runs 7 NVS matrix configs, 3 fuzz targets, and NVS binary validation on every push to firmware/.

See ADR-061 for the full architecture.

QEMU Swarm Configurator (ADR-062)

Test multiple ESP32-S3 nodes simultaneously using a YAML-driven orchestrator. Define node roles, network topologies, and validation assertions in a config file.

# Quick smoke test (2 nodes, 15 seconds)
python3 scripts/qemu_swarm.py --preset smoke

# Standard 3-node test (coordinator + 2 sensors)
python3 scripts/qemu_swarm.py --preset standard

# See all presets
python3 scripts/qemu_swarm.py --list-presets

# Preview without running
python3 scripts/qemu_swarm.py --preset standard --dry-run

Topologies: star (sensors → coordinator), mesh (fully connected), line (relay chain), ring (circular).

Node roles: sensor (generates CSI), coordinator (aggregates), gateway (bridges to host).

7 presets: smoke, standard, ci-matrix, large-mesh, line-relay, ring-fault, heterogeneous.

9 swarm assertions: boot check, crash detection, TDM collision, frame production, coordinator reception, fall detection, frame rate, boot time, heap health.

See ADR-062 and the User Guide for step-by-step instructions.
