The evidence is proven or strong, but this capability still needs a capability-specific ESP32 or Rust runtime adapter.
Intended capability
Validate this target only after a capability-specific adapter and ground-truth study exist: Health scoring of conveyors and belt drives across mining and bulk-handling sites: belt flutter, splice passage, idler seizure, and slip detected as changes in the plant's mechanical rhythm.
This describes the intended outcome. Readiness is needs edge adapter, evidence is class B, and a catalog mapping or recording is not proof of this outcome at a real site.

Bundled recording
A related Industrial scene
This is one recorded vertical scenario. It is not separate validation of every capability in the catalog.
01 The physics
A moving belt is a large periodic scatterer: splice passage gives a strict once-per-loop CSI impulse (period = belt length/speed), flutter shows as 1-15Hz micro-Doppler broadening, a seized idler removes its rotation line and adds a rubbing broadband floor, and slip shifts the fundamental against motor speed. All are in-band, all are periodicity observables robust to distance.
02 Shared processing path
Micro-Doppler periodicity extraction + cepstral loop-period tracking (stage 2) -> per-conveyor adaptive PCA baseline (stage 3) -> compartment Kalman on loop period and flutter energy + CUSUM for gradual idler degradation over weeks (stage 6).
This is a capability design path. Components may be shared with other catalog entries; it is not presented as a unique algorithm.
03 Validation plan
Own-hardware: benchtop belt rig with removable splice marker, adjustable tension (flutter), and brakeable idler; verify each fault signature. CSI-Bench periodic-machine subsets for the periodicity-tracking front end.
04 Commercial hypothesis
Every conveyor gets a heartbeat monitor for $100 — sold to the mine maintenance planner as idler-failure detection without walking the line.
