ABSTRACT
We propose a support system for finding lost objects indoors. The system employs active RFID and ultrasonic position detection to detect the position of a lost object. The system illuminates the position by using Movinglight, which is normally employed in stage lighting. From an experiment, the way of notification by light is better than that by sound in some situations.

A Noise-Robust Convex-Optimized Positioning System Based on Code-Aided RSS Estimation and Virtual Base Station Transform
This paper presents a noise-robust mobile positioning system based on received signal strength (RSS) estimators, particle filters and a convex optimization processor. The positioning system uses a code-aided noise cancellation technique to refine the (...
Zee: zero-effort crowdsourcing for indoor localization
Mobicom '12: Proceedings of the 18th annual international conference on Mobile computing and networkingRadio Frequency (RF) fingerprinting, based onWiFi or cellular signals, has been a popular approach to indoor localization. However, its adoption in the real world has been stymied by the need for sitespecific calibration, i.e., the creation of a ...
Cooperative Target Tracking and Signal Propagation Learning Using Mobile Sensors
Target tracking refers to positioning mobile objects over time. The targets may be hospital patients, park visitors, mall shoppers, warehouse assets, etc. We consider a novel cooperative system to track targets, where a target carries low-cost RF tag ...
