SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CALIBRATION FOR ESTABLISHING REAL-TIME LOCATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056767 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CALIBRATION FOR ESTABLISHING REAL-TIME LOCATION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system and method for obtaining calibration data for a portable device in order to define a locator for determining the device's location relative to an object.
- The system and method obtain calibration data related to a signal characteristic of communications transmitted from the portable device, corresponding to a known location of the device.
- The calibration data may include truth data that helps establish a reference point for the device's location.
Potential Applications
- Indoor navigation systems
- Asset tracking in warehouses or large facilities
- Augmented reality applications
Problems Solved
- Difficulty in accurately determining the location of a portable device indoors
- Lack of reference points for calibration in indoor environments
Benefits
- Improved accuracy in determining the location of a portable device indoors
- Enhanced user experience in indoor navigation and location-based services
Original Abstract Submitted
a system and method are provided for obtaining calibration data for a portable device relative to an object in order to facilitate defining a locator for determining a location of the portable device relative to the object. the system and method may obtain calibration data pertaining to a signal characteristic of communications transmitted from the portable device and corresponding to a known location of the portable device (e.g., truth data).
