Description

Overview

This issue tracks the complete vendor integration and edge intelligence expansion for WiFi-DensePose. The branch feat/complete-vendor-and-edge-intel delivers 5 commits across 1,883 files, introducing a new coherent RF sensing protocol (CHCI), 65 WASM edge modules that run directly on ESP32 hardware, vendor library integration, and comprehensive documentation updates.

In plain terms: WiFi-DensePose already detects people through walls using WiFi signals. This release makes those detections smarter by running 65 tiny analysis programs directly on the $8 ESP32 chip -- no cloud needed, instant response. It also introduces a next-generation sensing protocol (CHCI) that controls both transmitter and receiver for dramatically better accuracy.


What was delivered

1. ADR-042 -- Coherent Human Channel Imaging (CHCI)

A new architecture decision record for a purpose-built coherent RF sensing protocol. Unlike passive CSI eavesdropping (which relies on whatever WiFi traffic happens to be in the air), CHCI controls both transmitter and receiver with a shared clock.

What CHCI enables:

  • Phase-locked dual-radio architecture: Two ESP32-S3 radios sharing a single SI5351A PLL synthesizer, achieving < 0.1 radian phase noise across all antennas
  • Multi-band coherent fusion: Simultaneous sounding across 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands -- 3x bandwidth without spectrum cost
  • Time-coded micro-bursts: 4-20 microsecond OFDM pulses at 1-5 kHz cadence -- 100x less airtime than standard WiFi beacons
  • Cognitive waveform adaptation: 6 sensing modes (IDLE / ALERT / ACTIVE / VITAL / GESTURE / SLEEP) that automatically adjust based on what the system detects
  • Coherent diffraction tomography: Reconstructs body surface geometry from phase perturbations, not just volumetric shadows
  • Sub-millimeter displacement: 0.031 mm resolution with 8-antenna coherent averaging

DDD domain model: 6 bounded contexts (Waveform Generation, Clock Synchronization, Coherent Signal Processing, Cognitive Waveform, Displacement Measurement, Regulatory Compliance) with full Rust struct/enum definitions and domain events.

2. Complete WASM Edge Module Catalog (65 modules, 632 tests)

All 65 modules are production-ready Rust compiled to WebAssembly for on-device execution on ESP32-S3. Each module is 5-30 KB, runs in under 10 ms, uses zero heap allocation, and communicates via a 12-function host API.
