Add environment-tuned activity classification that learns from labeled ESP32 CSI recordings, replacing brittle static thresholds. - Adaptive classifier: 15-feature logistic regression trained from JSONL recordings (variance, motion band, subcarrier stats: skew, kurtosis, entropy, IQR). Trains in <1s, persists as JSON, auto-loads on restart. - Three-stage signal smoothing: adaptive baseline subtraction (α=0.003), EMA + trimmed-mean median filter (21-frame window), hysteresis debounce (4 frames). Motion classification now stable across seconds, not frames. - Vital signs stabilization: outlier rejection (±8 BPM HR, ±2 BPM BR), trimmed mean, dead-band (±2 BPM HR), EMA α=0.02. HR holds steady for 10+ seconds instead of jumping 50 BPM every frame. - Observatory auto-detect: always probes /health on startup, connects WebSocket to live ESP32 data automatically. - New API endpoints: POST /api/v1/adaptive/train, GET /adaptive/status, POST /adaptive/unload for runtime model management. - Updated user guide with Observatory, adaptive classifier tutorial, signal smoothing docs, and new troubleshooting entries.
Architecture Decision Records
This folder contains 44 Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that document every significant technical choice in the RuView / WiFi-DensePose project.
Why ADRs?
Building a system that turns WiFi signals into human pose estimation involves hundreds of non-obvious decisions: which signal processing algorithms to use, how to bridge ESP32 firmware to a Rust pipeline, whether to run inference on-device or on a server, how to handle multi-person separation with limited subcarriers.
ADRs capture the context, options considered, decision made, and consequences for each of these choices. They serve three purposes:
-
Institutional memory — Six months from now, anyone (human or AI) can read why we chose IIR bandpass filters over FIR for vital sign extraction, not just see the code.
-
AI-assisted development — When an AI agent works on this codebase, ADRs give it the constraints and rationale it needs to make changes that align with the existing architecture. Without them, AI-generated code tends to drift — reinventing patterns that already exist, contradicting earlier decisions, or optimizing for the wrong tradeoffs.
-
Review checkpoints — Each ADR is a reviewable artifact. When a proposed change touches the architecture, the ADR forces the author to articulate tradeoffs before writing code, not after.
ADRs and Domain-Driven Design
The project uses Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to organize code into bounded contexts — each with its own language, types, and responsibilities. ADRs and DDD work together:
- ADRs define boundaries: ADR-029 (RuvSense) established multistatic sensing as a separate bounded context from single-node CSI. ADR-042 (CHCI) defined a new aggregate root for coherent channel imaging.
- DDD models define the language: The RuvSense domain model defines terms like "coherence gate", "dwell time", and "TDM slot" that ADRs reference precisely.
- Together they prevent drift: An AI agent reading ADR-039 knows that edge processing tiers are configured via NVS keys, not compile-time flags — because the ADR says so. The DDD model tells it which aggregate owns that configuration.
How ADRs are structured
Each ADR follows a consistent format:
- Context — What problem or gap prompted this decision
- Decision — What we chose to do and how
- Consequences — What improved, what got harder, and what risks remain
- References — Related ADRs, papers, and code paths
Statuses: Proposed (under discussion), Accepted (approved and/or implemented), Superseded (replaced by a later ADR).
