Wow, looks good! I bet CyberGibbons could crack it

Sounds interesting. Have you got any patents or anything juicy to look at? It looks like it works on signal strength between multiple nodes on the 2.4GHz spectrum. I'd imagine you have to be doing some pretty hefty DSP work to get it producing meaningful results.

Also, if you fancy sending some kit for evaluation by someone who loves breaking stuff like this...

Ah, found it...

It sounds quite interesting. I'm wondering if it can be gamed by an active jamming system that very very gradually ramps up the background noise in the channel that is in use...

The Dutch night club sounds interesting.. haha

 

Thanks for the comments Gibbons. We have 4 PhDs at Xandem that all have extensive DSP experience. It's taken years to perfect the technology in this simple form of a motion detector. We have a bunch of far more advanced products in R&D which will hit the market in the next couple years. 

 

As for the jamming, our system will indicator poor health and trigger a trouble relay if you reach a level where our detection is degraded. We're yet find a way around the system that hasn't been addressed already.

Lol @ what Peter redirected the link to

Having a quick read through the patent is this something that can be integrated with existing radio devices I.e wireless detectors so that they would act as nodes within the mesh?

Boxshifter,

 

A very interesting idea. It is technically possible if we had access to all the hardware involved so that would could load custom firmware to the devices and the devices played nice with our encryption and custom communication protocol. A bit too much leg work to be feasible. Let me know if you have questions.

Has it been independently pen tested then?

Ironically the same method as used selectively for gaming quantum network links...

So just found the PCB from the processing unit:

Looks like a TI CC2540 from the crystal pins and frequency, RF connections and size and type of package. Very similar to the CC11xx chips but in the 2.4GHz band. Difficult to get code out of these unless they are left unlocked.

You found something you can't break
