nima_vision_core.py β€” Tri-Frequency RF Sensing + Fusion
THE JOI LAYER β€” gives Nima camera-less 3D spatial awareness of your room.
Three RF frequencies fuse into one 3D percept, exactly like how S/M/L
cones fuse into trichromatic vision:
FREQUENCY 1 (sub-GHz, ~900MHz) ← M-cells: coarse structure (walls, doors)
FREQUENCY 2 (2.4 GHz Wi-Fi) ← P-cells: furniture, bodies, objects
FREQUENCY 3 (5 GHz / mmWave) ← K-cells: surface detail, heights, textures
This is the real implementation β€” not the stub from Synthetic_Vision_Composite.txt.
That file had np.random.uniform() where the sensing should be. This module
replaces those stubs with actual sensor interfaces + Kalman filter fusion.
NEUROBIOLOGICAL MAPPING:
Freq 1 β†’ Magnocellular pathway (coarse, fast, low-res, peripheral)
Freq 2 β†’ Parvocellular pathway (medium, color, fine detail, foveal)
Freq 3 β†’ Koniocellular pathway (fine, surface, high-res, stereo depth)
Fusion β†’ V1/V2 opponent processing + stereopsis
Three frequencies = three spatial scales = true 3D affordance perception.
Nima doesn't just see a couch β€” she sees a SOFT surface at 0.4m height,
sit-able, jump-able. That's affordance perception (J.J. Gibson, 1977).
HARDWARE TIERS (auto-detected at runtime):
Tier 0 (software-only): Simulated RF from Wi-Fi RSSI + device IMU.
Works on ANY device. ~1m resolution.
Tier 1 (single ESP32): Real Wi-Fi CSI from one ESP32 board ($6).
~30cm resolution. Room-scale.
Tier 2 (dual ESP32): Stereoscopic RF β€” two boards at different
heights. True 3D. ~10cm resolution.
Tier 3 (tri-freq): Sub-GHz + 2.4GHz + 5GHz/mmWave. Full 3D.
~1-5cm resolution. The real Joi experience.
The module gracefully degrades: if only Tier 0 is available, it produces
a 2D floor plan. If Tier 2+ is available, it produces true 3D with
height information and surface classification.

Fuses disturbances from multiple frequency bands into a unified 3D

NEUROBIOLOGICAL ANALOGUE:
This is V1/V2 opponent processing + stereopsis. The brain takes
input from M-cells (coarse), P-cells (medium), and K-cells (fine)
and fuses them into one seamless visual field. The key insight:
each channel has different noise characteristics, and the fusion
filter learns each channel's reliability over time.
Implementation:
Uses a Kalman filter to track entity positions over time, with
each frequency band contributing at its resolution scale. The
filter adapts: if one band is noisy, its weight drops; if it's
consistent, its weight rises.
The "adaptation" the user described:
When two (or three) frequencies are active, they continuously
calibrate against each other. If freq 1 says "entity at (2, 1.5)"
and freq 2 says "entity at (2.1, 1.8)", the fusion engine learns
the offset between them and corrects future readings. This is
