  • Patent number: 12672092
    Abstract: In some implementations, the techniques described herein relate to a method including: transmitting, by an access point, a message to a wireless device and receiving a response to the message, the response including a list of access points nearby the wireless device; determining, by the access point, a location of the wireless device based on the list of access points utilizing a trilateration algorithm; determining, by the access point, a type of the wireless device; identifying, by the access point, one or more nearby wireless devices within a threshold proximity to the wireless device; and categorizing, by the access point, one of the wireless device or a location of the wireless device based on the one or more nearby wireless devices and the type of the wireless device.

  • Publication number: 20250344131
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a decision-intelligence (DI)-based, computerized framework for advanced device naming and localization of Wi-Fi connected devices at a location. The disclosed framework operates to manage, control and/or manipulate devices on a Wi-Fi network, which provides intuitive mechanisms to select devices to name, group and/or locate in a WiFi app with WiFi motion and/or detected gesture(s) by leveraging voting and ranking mechanisms via a compiled cross-correlation matrix of channel frequency response (CFR) motion signatures and/or channel state information (CSI) motion signatures. Accordingly, motion signature information can be leveraged to control, enable and/or permit Wi-Fi connections among and/or between devices at a location.

  • Publication number: 20250301280
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a decision-intelligence (DI)-based, computerized framework for determining the geolocation of a WiFi AP without using GPS information/data. The disclosed framework can operate to leverage positional information related to the location for which it is located and/or the devices for which that are connecting thereto, and based on computational analysis of such information, perform a periodic determination of its location, which can correspond to a positional range and/or a coordinate precise location. Accordingly, the disclosed computational analysis and determination can leverage WiFi links and/or data to/from the AP at the location to be part of the determination, and/or be used as a factor in performing the determination. Thus, the framework can perform operations implementing AFC via the geolocated AP devices.

  • Publication number: 20250081259
    Abstract: An access point of a wireless communication network may be configured to receive a solicited wireless communication from an electronic device in response to a request, the solicited wireless communication being transmitted by the electronic device over a channel of the wireless communication network. The access point may extract channel characteristics from the solicited wireless communication, the channel characteristics being timing-dependent effects on the channel associated with the solicited wireless communication. The access point may generate a device fingerprint based at least in part on the channel characteristics, the device fingerprint being specific to hardware of the electronic device. Using the device fingerprint, the access point or another device may determine an identification, indicative of at least one of an identity or a device type, of the electronic device based on a stored device profile representative of at least one authenticated electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20250063537
    Abstract: In some implementations, the techniques described herein relate to a method including: collecting, by a processor, Wi-Fi sense data (WSD) associated with a client device in a network, wherein the WSD includes wireless characteristics indicative of one of a movement or position of the client device; generating, by the processor, a movement signature for the client device based on the WSD; classifying, by the processor, a fine-grained type of the client device utilizing the movement signature; and storing, by the processor, the fine-grained type in a storage device.

  • Publication number: 20210164993
    Abstract: This present application generally relates to methods and systems that allow for the establishment of personalized skin care regimen for an individual based upon the individual's genetic profile comprising biomarkers genetically associated with skin phenotypic attributes and/or skin nutritional conditions. In particular, kits and methods are disclosed for determining an individual's genetic profile, which may be used to select an appropriate therapeutic/dietary regimen or lifestyle recommendation based at least in part on the biomarkers used, weights applied thereto, and the resulting likelihood of the individual to exhibit a plurality of skin phenotypic attributes. Such a personalized skin care regimen is advantageous as compared to traditional skin care programs.
