~~Wtf? I thought this wasn't possible with the silicon in older ESPs.~~ Is this a proprietary piece of software? I'd need access to the ESPhome component to use it in my house. (Edit: Ah I see, they use massive amounts of microcontrollers, so probably something basic like signal strength, not anything fancy like the modern Wifi-Sensing.)
