RuView vs prowler

RuView is an open‑source Rust project that turns everyday WiFi radio signals into a privacy‑preserving sensing medium. By analyzing how those signals are disturbed, it can detect presence, occupancy, and even vital signs like breathing and heart rate without any camera. Designed for developers and researchers, RuView runs in the cloud and can be accessed via a web interface, making it easy to integrate into ambient‑sensing experiments and applications while keeping data private.

Prowler is an open-source cloud security platform that automates security and compliance across any cloud environment. It helps organizations ensure their cloud infrastructure is secure and compliant with industry standards.
