Abstract
Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that generates a real-time histogram image based on real-time signal strength indicator (SSI) information associated with a plurality of beacons adjacent to an indoor area. The technology may also input the real-time histogram image to a neural network and automatically determine a location of a mobile recipient of the real-time SSI information in the indoor area based on an output of the neural network.
Claims25
A computing system comprising:
- a plurality of beacons;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor, the memory including a set of executable program instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- generate a real-time histogram image based on real-time signal strength indicator (SSI) information associated with the plurality of beacons when the plurality of beacons are adjacent to an indoor area,
- input the real-time histogram image to a neural network, and
- automatically determine a location of a mobile recipient of the real-time SSI information in the indoor area based on an output of the neural network.
A semiconductor apparatus comprising:
- one or more substrates;
- and
- logic coupled to the one or more substrates, wherein the logic is implemented at least partly in one or more of configurable logic or fixed-functionality hardware logic, the logic coupled to the one or more substrates to:
- generate a real-time histogram image based on real-time signal strength indicator (SSI) information associated with a plurality of beacons adjacent to an indoor area,
- input the real-time histogram image to a neural network, and
- automatically determine a location of a mobile recipient of the real-time SSI information in the indoor area based on an output of the neural network.
At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising a set of executable program instructions, which when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to:
- generate a real-time histogram image based on real-time signal strength indicator (SSI) information associated with a plurality of beacons adjacent to an indoor area;
- input the real-time histogram image to a neural network;
- and
- automatically determine a location of a mobile recipient of the real-time SSI information in the indoor area based on an output of the neural network.
A method comprising:
