Publication number: 20260095729Abstract: The present disclosure provides an approach of receiving, from an entity in a computer network, a wireless data stream including channel state information (CSI). The approach performs a tokenization process on the CSI to generate input embeddings associated with a task. The tokenization process works independently of hardware configurations, parameter configurations, or wireless communication standards of the entity The approach trains a foundational model based on the input embeddings, wherein the foundational model is trained for sensing the task. The approach generates an activity prediction associated with the task.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 23, 2025Publication date: April 2, 2026Applicant: Cypress Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Niall Lyons, Ashutosh Pandey, Avik Santra

Patent number: 12475197Abstract: Implementations disclosed describe methods, devices, and systems to perform out-of-distribution and recognition of activities using an inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor. A method may include receiving motion data by a device from a motion sensor. The method further includes generating image data comprising one or more images based on the motion data. The method further includes determining that a first portion of the image data corresponds to activities outside a classification distribution. The method further includes filtering the image data by removing the first portion from the image and generating filtered image data. The method further includes determining an activity classification, within the classification distribution, based on the filtered image data. The method further includes modifying an operating parameter of the device based on the activity classification.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2022Date of Patent: November 18, 2025Assignee: Cypress Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Niall Lyons, Avik Santra, Ashutosh Pandey

Publication number: 20250089014Abstract: The present disclosure provides an approach that captures one or more wireless signals in a geographic area. Each one of the one or more wireless signals includes channel state information (CSI) data. The present disclosure produces a channel state information (CSI) representation based on the CSI data that indicates multiple channel responses corresponding to the one or more wireless signals. The present disclosure filters the CSI representation to remove at least one of the channel responses that correspond to a stationary object within the geographic area to produce a filtered CSI representation. The present disclosure predicts a presence of a moving object within the geographic area based on the filtered CSI representation.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2024Publication date: March 13, 2025Applicant: Cypress Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Niall Lyons, Avik Santra, Kiran Uln, Rakesh Taori, Vikram Kumar Ramanna, Ashutosh Pandey
