+# ruview
+
+**Ambient intelligence from WiFi CSI.** Detect human presence, count
+people, read breathing and heart rate, and estimate skeletal pose —
+using only the WiFi signal already in your home. No cameras. No
+wearables. Works through walls and in the dark.
+
+`ruview` is the brand-facing meta-package for the
+[RuView](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView) sensing stack. It installs
+the compiled PyO3 wheel published as
+[`wifi-densepose`](https://pypi.org/project/wifi-densepose/) and
+re-exports its full API under the `ruview` namespace — so you can
+write either of these and they do the same thing:
+
+```python
+from ruview import BreathingExtractor, SensingClient
+from wifi_densepose import BreathingExtractor, SensingClient
+```
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pip install ruview                 # core DSP
+pip install "ruview[client]"       # + WebSocket/MQTT clients
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from ruview import BreathingExtractor
+
+br = BreathingExtractor.esp32_default()  # 56 subcarriers @ 100 Hz, 30s window
+for residuals, weights in csi_source:
+    est = br.extract(residuals=residuals, weights=weights)
+    if est is not None:
+        print(f"{est.value_bpm:.1f} BPM  (confidence={est.confidence:.2f})")
+```
+
+Full API + WebSocket / MQTT / Home Assistant integration docs:
+[wifi-densepose on PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/wifi-densepose/).
+
+## Why two PyPI names?
+
+Historic: `wifi-densepose` is the technical / academic name (the
+project started as a WiFi-based DensePose implementation).
+`ruview` is the brand the v2 ambient-intelligence platform ships
+under. Both are the same code. You pick the import that reads
+better in your project.

+"""RuView — ambient intelligence from WiFi CSI.
+
+This package is a thin alias around `wifi-densepose`. Both PyPI names
+ship the same code and the same compiled Rust core; `ruview` is the
+brand-facing name and `wifi-densepose` is the technical name. Pick
+whichever you prefer:
+
+    pip install ruview
+    pip install wifi-densepose
+
+Both make this work:
+
+    from ruview import BreathingExtractor, hello
+    # or equivalently:
+    from wifi_densepose import BreathingExtractor, hello
+
+The actual compiled DSP, the Python facade, and every public class
+live in `wifi_densepose` — `ruview` just re-exports the surface so the
+two names are interchangeable in application code.
