Who-Fi is a cutting-edge technology that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to identify and track individuals without needing any visual input. It is an experimental technology which remains to be thoroughly tested in the real world. However, based on the research paper that mentions and documents its proof of concept, it can be used to turn any ordinary Wi-Fi signal into a biometric scanner that can not only track the movement and active position of an individual but also identify their unique biometric signature. Understanding the Who-Fi Technology According to a paper published in the online preprint journal arXiv, regular 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signals can be used to identify and track individuals, and play an important role in both identity authentication and surveillance. The technology also raises fresh concerns about digital privacy and security. Breaking the technology down, the Who-Fi system uses a combination of a Wi-Fi signal and a transformer-based neural network (also known as ...
