A system, method, and devices for locating an object, in which the system includes objects having location tags for projecting data about the object, a processing unit for receiving data about the object, and an algorithm for processing the data. Typically, the location tag includes at least one mobility sensor that projects sensory data about the object, a wireless transceiver that projects received signal strength indication data about the object and a microprocessor. The processing unit receiving the sensory data and the received signal strength indication data about the object. The algorithm processes the data, provides a location estimate about the object and thereby locates the object.
A system for locating objects comprising:
A method for locating an object, comprising:
A method to calibrate a set of mobility sensors so their output is modified to provide readings in a normalized ego-centric mobility coordinate system.
A method to compensate for the gravitational force of the earth in mobility sensor readings.
