WUDS: Wi-Fi User Detection System

WUDS is a proximity detection system that uses Wi-Fi probe requests, signal strength, and a white list of MAC addresses to create a detection barrier and identify the presence of foreign devices within a protected zone. Designed with the Raspberry Pi in mind, WUDS can be installed and configured on any system with Python 2.x and a wireless card capable of Monitor mode.

Send to Node-Red

Host PCs MAC address is logged continually

The host PCs Mac is constantly logged to the DB.

WUDS_NAME error

WUDS_NAME breaks the code. To get it to run I had to remove it. This needs fixing urgently.
