MIT using radio waves to monitor patients’ health through walls
A professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a device that can monitor your health using radio signals and machine learning, even through walls.
The gadget looks like a box and works like a Wi-Fi router; the low-power wireless signals reflect off nearby people’s bodies and carry information back to the box, the MIT tech review said. The box analyzes the information and offers up health data. The device senses your movements, even if you’re just breathing, by recording changes in the electromagnetic field around you.
