Aging in Place — Resident A
Reconstructing within learned normal distribution · Hallway · baseline learned over 26 days
What Wavey Is Not
- No certified fall detection with regulatory clearance
- No clinical-grade respiration or heart rate
- No identity — an anomaly is attributed to a zone, not a person
- Published system: single-room, simulated falls, unvalidated over age 60
Wavey is an awareness layer. Fall detection sits at rung 6 on the detection ladder.
Deployment Considerations
Node Placement
Links must cross hallways and bedroom doorways where falls perturb CSI most.
Baseline Stability
Furniture moves and new occupants require re-baselining the normal model.
Multi-person Homes
Superposition makes per-person attribution unreliable without spatial diversity.
False Positives
Unusual non-fall events (dropping onto a couch) still trip the threshold.
