Falls are the leading cause of injury for adults 65+. This project advances WiFi motion sensing beyond presence/activity to classify types of stopped movement—specifically detecting falls—by increasing sampling rates and applying novel AI for CSI pattern recognition. The approach avoids privacy issues, professional installs, and compliance burdens, with potential to upend the PERS market and broaden access in underserved communities.
