Preamble

In-Door localization has been a challenge due to barriers in the confined area. The intention is to increase the accuracy of localization using a combination RSSI, 9-axis accelerators, and various approaches such as predictive algorithms and Kalman filters.

Objective

To locate a person or an moving object with the accuracy of 1 meter or less in a confined area.

Partial Specifications

1) It is in-door and in a given meshed area.
2) It should cancel the interference caused by walls and objects that are in the vicinity of the moving object.

Suggested Approach

Codes, sources, and hardware may be provided depending on the stage the project has progressed.
