Abstract—Because the global positioning system (GPS) consumes a large amount of power and does not work indoors, many GPS-free information brokerage schemes are proposed for wire...
In this paper we examine issues of localization, exploration, and planning in the context of a hybrid robot/camera-network system. We exploit the ubiquity of camera networks to us...
Abstract. We present an improvement to ultrasound–based indoor location systems like Cricket [1]. By encoding and modulating the ultrasound pulses, we are able to achieve greater...
—Accurate, simple and affordable methods for passive indoor tracking of human beings are still missing. In this article, we describe the development of an unobtrusive two-dimensi...
Context-aware computing systems demand an accurate and up-to-date world model which computationally represents the environment they oversee. Systems to date tend to have small-sca...
