Abstract
The disclosure is directed to determining a change in position of a location marker. In an aspect, it is determined whether the location marker is in a motion state or a static state using sensors integrated into the location marker, in response to the determining, one or more reachable nodes are discovered, and distance measurements are calculated from the location marker to each of the one or more reachable nodes.
Claims36
A method for determining a change in position of a location marker, comprising:
- determining whether the location marker is in a motion state or a static state using sensors integrated into the location marker;
- discovering, in response to the determining, one or more reachable nodes;
- and
- calculating distance measurements from the location marker to each of the one or more reachable nodes.
An apparatus for determining a change in position of a location marker, comprising:
- logic configured to determine whether the location marker is in a motion state or a static state using sensors integrated into the location marker;
- logic configured to discover, in response to the determining, one or more reachable nodes;
- and
- logic configured to calculate distance measurements from the location marker to each of the one or more reachable nodes.
An apparatus for determining a change in position of a location marker, comprising:
- means for determining whether the location marker is in a motion state or a static state using sensors integrated into the location marker;
- means for discovering, in response to the determining, one or more reachable nodes;
- and
- means for calculating distance measurements from the location marker to each of the one or more reachable nodes.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for determining a change in position of a location marker, comprising:
- at least one instruction to determine whether the location marker is in a motion state or a static state using sensors integrated into the location marker;
- at least one instruction to discover, in response to the determining, one or more reachable nodes;
- and
- at least one instruction to calculate distance measurements from the location marker to each of the one or more reachable nodes.
