Customer Tracking Through An Affordable Consumer Device Array, Daniel Nishi

Computer Science and Software Engineering

Commercial person tracking systems that use wifi packet analysis is currently very costly. In order to reduce the barrier of entry and allow small businesses to reap the benefits of indoor trilateration systems and monitor consumer traffic patterns, I am building out a system that will run on low-cost hardware and be deployable without a monthly service fee. By using consumer hardware, we are able to collect and analyze wifi management packets from smartphone sources and use it to extract actionable business information.
