This - at least for me - messes up the rolling release stuff at least one a month.
My experiments never had a dependency on linearity.
Only pressure waves coming into all holes at the same time will reach sensor.
Never tested it. Only a Gedankenexperiment as Einstein would say.
I'm 99.5% sure if you throw Claude with a datasheet on it will Slop out working code for a ESP32 with ESP-IDF.
The SDP600-25Pa speaks I2C and only has a handful of commands.
Just read it out with a microcontroller you love (like ESP32) and send the samples to a host for analysis. The ESP32 has limited I2C time stretching capabilities limiting it in the highest resolution modes of the sensor - but often that's not a big factor.
To not overwhelm the poor processor and Wifi maybe better a bunch of frames (like 512 or more).
Sensirion is using a thermal flow-sensing principle method which is basically a heated plate that cools/heats up when air passes it - making it extremely sensitive in this range.
There are extremely sensitive differential pressure sensors (like SDP600-25Pa) available from Sensirion that aren't overly expensive.
Use one differential side and connect it to a kitchen funnel for directional listening the other one to a plastic bottle with a tiny hole in it. This way the sensor will "Null" out the environmental pressure (which the bottle follows very very slowly) from both inputs. It then only will pick up everything high frequency which is left over (and the bottle cannot follow because of its small hole).
This way I was able to detect washing machines that have a physical link to a house from many hundred meters (machine spinning -> house wall shaking -> pressure waves) away. The speed pattern of washing machines when spinning is very unique (several steps over many seconds).
Add this with some GPS PPS frame timestamping and you should have a nice tracking network that doesn't require a lot of bandwidth. But maybe the setup must switch to analog differential pressure sensors as these Senirion-I2C sensors do not have a Sync ping for super precise timestamping.
After a long time they introduced ONVIF into their camera products which basically opened it to everyone.

They are following closely and the best offer 80-90% of the performance and come with a very small fraction of the costs.
This "here's a neighbor table, disassoc and fuck you&good luck"-method we must use right now is just super painful. It's super complicated to build reliable networks that way.
Meshcore is 100% free. The last issue was the closed sorce Android/iPhone client - but there are FOSS Flutter based-Opensource clients available (https://github.com/zjs81/meshcore-open)
Everything below needs that a huge amount of engineering. CERN&friends developed the "White Rabbit" (https://ohwr.org/projects/white-rabbit/) system for this. This allows sub-Nanoseconds syncing of netwoked devices.
Intel i210 and i226 does this. But the i226 has a few variants.
If they have too much free time they put much weirdo stuff into their devices just to see what.. happens.
They have a spectacular collection of crystals scanned.

Same for Forgejo.
LoRa is another level. It works down to -146dBm.
802.11ah dies around -100dBm.
Still much much better than "standard" Wifi. But you are comparing two different beasts.
Get a basestation from Mikrotik and use Chirpstack as backend.
This setup is commercially very very battlefield proven.
