Abstract
Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to determining relationships between locations based on beacon information. At least three sensors of a device can be used to determine locations of a beacon. The device can determine a three-dimensional relationship between the locations.
Claims15
A method comprising:
- determining an image of an object at a device;
- detecting a plurality of positions of a beacon, wherein the positions are respectively associated with a plurality of portions of the image;
- and
- determining, at the device, a three-dimensional model of the object based on the positions and the image.
1 more element
A device comprising:
- a sensor module to control at least three sensors;
- a location module to determine a plurality of locations of a beacon using the at least three sensors;
- and
- a relationship module to determine a three-dimensional relationship between the locations.
1 more element
A computing system comprising:
- a device including:
- an image capture device;
- at least three position sensors;
- and
- a processor coupled to memory;
- and
- a mobile beacon that can provide input to the device, the mobile beacon including a signal transmitter,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- determine a plurality of images via the image capture device;
- determine an object in the images;
- recognize the mobile beacon in the images;
- determine a portion of at least one of the images based on the recognition;
- receive signal information about at least one signal received at the at least three position sensors from the mobile beacon;
- determine spatial location information about the mobile beacon wherein the spatial location information corresponds to the portion;
- and
- determine a three-dimensional model of the object based, at least in part, on the spatial location information.
