Short comes
First Inspirational link needs manual probing at various levels
to determine the radiation pattern.
Second Inspirational Link uses predefined datasets available
from government to overlay information and processing vision.
Project Description
Using HoloLens we want to localize a WiFi router.
The idea of looking at WiFi signal around us would seem
like a fun app. But, If we are successfully able to
generate something of this sort, we should be able to
use the acquired intel for better first hand exploration in
an Urban Setting.
The Target final demo should be able to mimic the WiFi
App in the second inspirational link. But, instead of the
dataset and overlaying information - we should be able
to do it on real time on the HoloLens.
Allowing the HoloLens to take us to the nearest possible
router would be a good additional capability.
