Watch: An artificial intelligence technology from MIT enables devices to 'see' people through walls

MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory is trying to make you see through a wall. Well no, not really – but the outcome is the same. Under the guidance of Professor Dina Katabi, a team at CSAIL is working on a project named RF-Pose, which, according to MIT, uses artificial intelligence and a neural network to sense people's postures and movement from the other side of a wall. "The researchers use a neural network to analyse radio signals that bounce off people's bodies, and can then create a dynamic stick figure that walks, stops, sits, and moves its limbs as the person performs those actions," the article said. The video above demonstrates and explains the mechanism.
