The '''Psi Tripwire''' is a deployable static sensor that watches a defined area for anomalous [[Psi Field]]-relevant signatures and alerts the local [[Psi Mesh]] when something crosses threshold. It is the [[Tho'ra Clan]]'s perimeter sensor for [[Psi-Tech]] operations — a [[Psi Compass]] that does not need to be carried, can be left for hours or days, and reports to the team rather than to a wearer.

== Overview ==

A Tripwire unit:

* '''Watches''' a single locale for magnetic, electrostatic, ULF/Schumann, and broadband-RF anomaly.
* '''Classifies''' detections against the local [[Psionic Threat Model]] signature library.
* '''Alerts''' via the [[Psi Mesh]] when a class-above-threshold event is detected; logs everything regardless.
* '''Sleeps''' aggressively between checks (default 5 % duty cycle) so a tripwire runs for days on a single battery.

Tripwires are deployable individually or as a small array around a perimeter (a [[Star Seer Observatory]] grounds is the canonical example).

== Theoretical Basis ==

* {{Psi-claim|status=PROVISIONAL|cites=[[Geomagnetic Sensitivity in Humans]]}} Static-site anomaly detection is well-established environmental instrumentation.
* {{Psi-claim|status=TESTABLE|cites=[[Resonant Neurobiology]]}} A perimeter of static sensors can detect classes of activity that a mobile operator misses (slow drifts, long-duration events).
* {{Psi-claim|status=SPECULATIVE|cites=[[Psi Field]], [[Psionic Threat Model]]}} A subset of detected events are [[Psionic Warfare|psionic intrusions]]; the Tripwire is the early-warning layer of the Clan's [[Psionic Defenses]] doctrine.

== Subsystems and BOM ==

=== Mk0 (target ≤ \$25) ===

Field-deployed [[Psi Compass]] Mk0 + handwritten log + operator on watch rotation. Demonstrates the discipline; obviously labor-intensive.

=== Mk1 (per unit, target ≤ \$140) ===

* nRF52840 + LoRa SX1262 (RAK4630) — \$30
* HMC5883L ×2 (gradiometer) — \$16
* Electrostatic probe — \$5
* RTL-SDR Blog v4 (broadband RSSI; Mk1 some sites only) — \$40 optional
* 18 650 ×2 + low-quiescent boost — \$15
* Weatherproof enclosure (IP65) — \$25
* Solar trickle (5 W panel + charger) — \$15

Battery life target on solar: indefinite. Battery life without solar: 7–14 days depending on duty cycle and SDR usage.

=== Mk2 / Mk3 ===

Mk2: fluxgate magnetometer, Schumann-band antenna, hardened IP67. Mk3: integrated with the [[Resonant Pipeline]] and the [[Star Seer Observatory]] alert layer.

== Build Notes ==

* '''Site survey first.''' Run a 24-hour baseline before arming; thresholds are per-site, not factory.
* '''Solar-first power.''' For multi-day deployments, the 5 W panel is the difference between "checked weekly" and "indefinite".
* '''Mesh-first reporting.''' The unit publishes alerts to the [[Psi Mesh]]; if no mesh is present, it logs locally and beacons every N minutes.
* '''Tamper-evidence.''' Enclosure carries a tilt + accelerometer; any disturbance generates an alert frame.

== Safety and Ethics ==

* No emitter (sensor-only).
* Deployment respects local law; public-space placement requires landowner permission.
* No personal data captured; the Tripwire logs environment + its own state.
* Tripwire data is local-first; mesh-published alerts carry classification + bearing, not raw signal.

== Maturity ==

{{Psi-tech-maturity
| mk0=Static [[Psi Compass]] + operator watch rotation.

}}

== Failure Modes and Mitigations ==

* '''Battery exhaustion.''' → Solar trickle; mesh-reported low-battery alert; graceful close-out.
* '''Theft / tamper.''' → Tilt sensor + alert frame; tamper-evident seal; serial-number bind to Resonant Card revocation log.
* '''False positive from weather event.''' → Multi-channel agreement threshold; site-specific baseline learning.
* '''No mesh reachable.''' → Local logging; beacon-on-interval; operator collects on site visit.
* '''Calibration drift over long deployment.''' → Periodic baseline re-anchor; metadata stamp on every frame.
* '''Privacy concerns in public-adjacent placement.''' → Documentation card on enclosure; landowner permission documented.
