Cool :) I have done my bachelor's project around wifi location fingerprinting back in the day. Took a year but with a bit of tweaks we did manage to calculate pretty accurate models of signal propagation by just having a wall model. The only downside at that time was the lack of development tools for Android (we had to use netbeans which was being horrifying experience). I guess it would be a lot easier to do the project with modern development environments + Flutter & Dart and using a bit more modern versions of OS :)
Really nice to see that this area is still active and being worked on!
- sl1ck731 8y agoI did the same for my bachelors but we basically pushed a cart with a wifi sampler around the building and built a machine learning model in matlab based on the signal strength to access points. It would have worked waaaay better if we had some sort of surveying equipment to accurately capture each few steps of the cart.
