A mobile computing device includes: a tracking sensor; a proximity sensor; and a controller coupled to the tracking sensor and the proximity sensor, the controller configured to: obtain a sequence of sensor datasets, each sensor dataset including: (i) a location of the mobile computing device, in a local coordinate system, generated using the tracking sensor, (ii) a proximity indicator generated using the proximity sensor, defining a range to a fixed reference device, and (iii) a predefined location of the reference device in a facility coordinate system; determine, from the sequence, an adjusted pose of an origin of the local coordinate system in the facility coordinate system; and generate, using a current location of the mobile device in the local coordinate system and the adjusted pose, a corrected location of the mobile computing device in the facility coordinate system; and execute a control action based on the corrected location.

Embodiments described herein provide for system and methods to crowdsource the location of wireless devices and accessories that lack a connection to a wide area network. One embodiment provides for a data processing system configured to perform operations comprising loading a user interface on an electronic device, the user interface to enable the determination of a location of a wireless accessory that is associated with the electronic device, generating a set of public keys included within a signal broadcast by the wireless accessory, the signal broadcast during a first period, sending the set of public keys to a server with a request to return data that corresponds with a public key in the set of public keys, decrypting the location data using a private key associated with the public key, and processing the location data to determine a probable location for the wireless accessory.

A method for inferring a status asset information from data of a first type gathered by a first asset tracking device is provided. The method includes determining that a first asset tracking device coupled to a first asset and a second asset tracking device coupled to a second asset are travelling together, that the first asset tracking device has a first operating mode, and that the second asset tracking device has a second operating mode, which is different from the first operating mode of the first asset tracking device. In response, the second asset tracking device enters into a low-power mode in which it either does not gather data of the first type or does so at a reduced rate. Status information related to the second asset may be inferred from data of the first type gathered by the first asset tracking device.

Systems, methods, and computer-executable instructions for identifying a convergence of objects includes receiving, at a device, a first beacon from a beacon transmitter located within a first location. A first location is identified based on the first beacon. A second beacon is received that is transmitted from a wearable worn by an object. The object associated with the second beacon is identified. A convergence time of the object and device is determined. A camera associated with the first location is determined. Video data associated with the camera is retrieved. Video of the first location at the convergence time is retrieved from the video data.

A method includes, by a mobile device, receiving a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal, and receiving, from a wireless device, via a PC5 interface, a message including a location of a reference structure, a calculated location of the mobile device, or a combination thereof. The method also includes determine whether the GNSS signal is a spoofing signal based on: a spoof indication of the GNSS signal, and whether a difference between a location of the mobile device determined based on the GNSS signal and one of the location of the reference structure, the calculated location of the mobile device, or a location of the mobile device determined based on the location of the reference structure is greater than a threshold value.

A system and method of acquiring and maintaining location information associated with traffic apparatus deployed in connection with a traffic flow monitoring or regulation system are disclosed. In some implementations, an apparatus identifier may distinguish a particular traffic apparatus from others that are deployed in proximity, and a functional identifier may define a functionality of the particular traffic apparatus; positioning, orientation, and movement or acceleration data may also be provided for real-time or near real-time system applications. These apparatus data may be used to derive and to maintain a record of location data associated with each traffic apparatus deployed in a particular application.

Beacon systems include a beacon including a transmitter, a processor, and a sensor for collecting sensor data, wherein the beacon broadcasts a beacon message comprising informational data based on a value of the sensor data and data regarding a minimum received signal strength for the relevance of the beacon message. The beacon system may include a receiving device, wherein the receiving device comprises a processor and an alarm adapted to be triggered by the beacon message, wherein the processor determines a relevance of the beacon message by comparing the minimum received signal strength for the relevance of the beacon message to an actual received signal strength of the beacon message, wherein, if the actual received signal strength is greater than or equal to the minimum received signal strength, the receiving device is within a range of relevance and the alarm is triggered.

Disclosed is a system, method, mobile communication device and one or more computer programs for a monitoring system. In one aspect, the system includes a plurality of transmitters, each transmitter having associated therewith a reflector antenna configured to substantially reflect signal transmission toward a detection area; and a mobile device configured to: receive transmitter signals from at least two transmitters from the plurality of transmitters; and determine that the mobile device is located within the detection area based on received signal strengths of the at least some of the transmitter signals.

A tracking system determines a location of a tracking device associated with a user using one or more access points at the location. Each access point at the location is configured to detect and couple with the tracking device when the tracking device is within a communicative range of the access point. An access point provides updates on the tracking device's presence, as well as the tracking device's arrival to and departure from the communicative range of the access point, to a tracking server. The tracking server determines, from these updates, whether the tracking device is at the location. The user may be notified, via a mobile device, of the tracking device's location.

Geolocated information is communicated to a user based upon a position of smart device in a building as determined by optical recognition of a first visual identifier, a second visual identifier and a third visual identifier. A distance determined from each of the visual identifiers, as well as a direction of interest indicated by a user. A user interface is generated for display on a Smart Device based upon the position of the Smart Device and direction of interest.
