Security Risk: Wi-Fi Location Spoofing (Part 1)

Customers are increasingly relying on multi-factor authentication and location services for fine-grain access control. This IoT project shows how a group of IoT devices can spoof known Wi-Fi access points, making a user appear to be in a different location. The impact? Access that Google/Apple/MS location services say is in your data center or office […]

Cutting Edge History

I recently came across an innovative use of AI image recognition, which details the use of a neural network to detect seal/cod worm parasites in codfish fillets. If you like sushi, it’s a queasy fact that fish can have live parasites, and these can infect humans. Most fish is deep-frozen to -20c to kill parasites

When Water isn’t Water

Sometimes the ‘factual’ data you are given is just bad. A project to categorize World Health documents using AI doesn’t yield expected results, and a deep dive into the data shows that the training document categorizations were often inaccurate. In several cases, documents classified under ‘water’ had zero keywords of ‘water’, ‘liquid’, ‘thirst’, or ‘drought’.

IoT: ESP32 Oximeter

First I must acknowledge the resources that this project leveraged: The Oxullo Arduino-MAX30100 library and reference code (github.com/oxullo/Arduino-MAX30100), that shows how to set the sensor IR and Red LEDs, and do a callback when heartbeat is detected to read the Sp02 level. The OLED display library by ThingPulse (github.com/ThingPulse/esp8266-oled-ssd1306). ESP32-I2C-LCD by Rui Santos (randomnerdtutorials.com), which
