If used right, this would disrupt home security industry so hard. It would be possible to get rid of any motion detectors, if I am not mistaken.

- jlgreco 13y agoIf I understand this correctly, you would really be replacing one sort of motion detector with another. The article is talking about phased array stuff, stuff you can't do with stock wifi equipment. All the regular wifi equipment is just providing the "light" the special receiver needs to see.

- simonbarker87 13y agoIn the UK, signalling alarm systems (those that ring the police and so are actually useful) require that 2 types of detection technology be used in the one senor. Microwave and passive IR. Using these together significantly reduces the chance of a false positive than just using one type on its own. So, you could use this to replace the microwave sensor in the dual tech sensors but you would still need the PIR.
