Patent ID: 11624802

Abstract:
Provided herein are methods and systems for generating a model, mapping a monitored space, and used for augmenting the location and paths of devices path in the monitored space, using orientation and obstruction analysis. The disclosure comprises moving a device having a camera and one or more wireless transceiver through the monitored space, exchanging signal transmissions with one or more wireless transceivers present in the monitored space, and taking images, video sequences, or other optical readings. Either the mobile wireless device, the wireless transceivers, or both may have a non-isotropic transmission and reception characteristics, due to antenna structure, occlusions, other objects with radiation impact and/or the like. The images, videos, and/or optical readings, in addition to the received signal characteristics are stored and processed to generate the model, which one or more verification units, configured to verify the location objects or devices in the monitored space, may use.
