The multi-user virtual reality system includes a data processing system including one or more data processing units. The data processing system is configured for determining a position of the first user in the body of water based on at least one signal transmitted between the first signal emitting or receiving system and the reference system. The data processing system is configured for determining a position of the second user in the body of water based on at least one signal transmitted between the second signal emitting or receiving system and the reference system. The data processing system is configured for determining whether the second user in the body of water is within a first target region 480 relative to the first user in the body of water. The data processing system is configured for instructing the first display unit to display virtual reality content to the first user in the body of water. If it is determined that the second user in the body of water is inside the first target region relative to the first user, the displayed virtual reality content includes a representation of the second user.

The invention relates to a method for locating an electronic shelf label with an unknown location, in particular in the form of an electronic shelf label display, of an electronic shelf labelling system, wherein the system comprises a number of access points with known locations, which are positioned in different positions at a distance from a shelf, wherein the shelf has at least one shelf edge strip and wherein one of the shelf edge strips has at least one electronic shelf label that is designed such that it can be contactlessly supplied with power, and an electronic power supply device located on the shelf edge strip and designed for contactlessly supplying the at least one shelf label with power, wherein the method comprises the following method steps: determining the position of the electronic supply device in relation to the access points with known locations using an ultra-wide-band radio communication between the access points and the power supply device.

A plurality of autonomous mobile robots includes a first mobile robot and a second mobile robot. The first mobile robot is provided with a transmitting optical sensor for outputting laser light, and a first module for transmitting and receiving an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) signal. The second mobile robot is provided with a receiving optical sensor for receiving the laser light and a plurality of second modules for transmitting and receiving the UWB signal. A control unit of the second mobile robot determines a relative position of the first mobile robot based on the received UWB signal and a determination of whether the laser light is received by the optical sensor.

A biological data obtaining device includes a storage unit, a first generation unit, and a second generation unit. The storage unit is configured to store time-series data in which first to N.sup.th distance-based fluctuation data are arranged. The first to N.sup.th distance-based fluctuation data are obtained based on reflected waves which are reflected from a living body at different times, wherein n.sup.th distance-based fluctuation data indicates changes in signal strength with respect to distance. The first generation unit is configured to generate time-based fluctuation data by performing strength obtaining process. The strength obtaining process includes obtaining one corresponding strength information, wherein the one corresponding strength information is a signal strength based on reflected waves from a predetermined detection part of the living body. The second generation unit is configured to generate biological data of the detection part of the living body based on the time-based fluctuation data.

A smart luggage system includes a piece of luggage configured to store items for transport and a handle coupled to the luggage. The smart luggage system includes an ultra-wideband based target tracking system that uses a combination of an angle of arrival mechanism and a time difference of arrival mechanism to help determine the position of a user relative to the luggage. The ultra-wideband based target tracking system helps maintain the luggage moving in a rear following position or a side following position relative to the user.

Introduced here are approaches to authenticating unknown persons based on variations in the properties of blood vessels over time. At a high level, these approaches rely on monitoring changes in a property of a blood vessel that occur over time. Examples of properties include the position, size, volume, and pressure of the blood vessel, as well as the velocity and acceleration of blood flowing through the blood vessel.

A plurality of autonomous mobile robots includes a first mobile robot having a first module for transmitting and receiving an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) signal, and a second mobile robot having a second module for transmitting and receiving the UWB signal. The second mobile robot follows the first mobile robot using the UWB signal.

A venue location identification system for vehicular access control is described. In one embodiment, the system includes at least one access control device. The access control device includes a processor, a communication interface, and an actuating mechanism configured to control a barrier for providing access to a parking area. The system also includes a user device associated with a vehicle. The user device is configured to communicate with the communication interface of the at least one access control device using ultra wideband (UWB) communication technology. The user device is further configured to transmit an access request to the access control device via UWB requesting permission to leave the parking area as the vehicle approaches the barrier.

A plurality of autonomous mobile robots includes a first mobile robot having a first module for transmitting and receiving an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) signal, and a second mobile robot having a second module for transmitting and receiving the UWB signal. The second mobile robot follows the first mobile robot using the UWB signal.

High-accuracy locating systems and methods are used for determining successful caregiver rounding, monitoring whether housekeepers have properly cleaned patient beds, or determining whether patients have ambulated sufficient distances during recovery. Patient beds having at least two locating tags are used for establishing patient care zones around the patient beds. Locating anchors and equipment tags are moved around a patient room to determine optimum locating anchor placement within the patient room based on signal quality values. A locating tag on a patient bed switches roles to operate as a locating anchor in response to the patient bed becoming stationary. A locating tag has a digital compass which is used to determine a field of good ranging relative to a front of a caregiver wearing the locating tag.
