We present a passive non-line-of-sight method that infers the number of people or activity of a person from the observation of a blank wall in an unknown room.
... analyzes complex imperceptible changes in indirect illumination in a video of the wall to reveal a signal that is correlated with motion in the hidden part of a scene.
... classify between zero, one, or two moving people, or the activity of a person in the hidden scene.
... train ... networks using data collected from 20 different scenes
.., achieve an accuracy of ~94% for both tasks in unseen test environments and real-time online settings.
... technique does not rely on known occluders or controllable light sources, and generalizes to unknown rooms with no re-calibration. ...
