Abstract:
A method and system for adjusting an inventory control record associated with an inventory item subject to inventory control tracking within a bounded area. The method, executed in a processor of a server computing device, comprises receiving, from at least a first mobile device located within the bounded area, at least a first data value associated with the inventory item, localizing, using the processor, the at least a first mobile device to a first location within the bounded area based on accessing a fingerprint data mapping of the bounded area, comparing, using the processor, the at least a first data value and the first location with a set of data values of the inventory control record associated with the inventory item, designating the inventory item as an outlier inventory item based on the comparing, and adjusting the inventory control record in conformance with the designating, the at least a first data value, and the first location.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of tracking an inventory item in a bounded area to manage location of the inventory item in the bounded area, the method executed in a processor of a server computing device and comprising:\n initiating acquisition of fingerprint data pertaining to the bounded area by a mobile device located within the bounded area on occurrence an event at the mobile device, the event including scanning of an identifier associated with the inventory item by the mobile device; receiving, from the mobile device, at least a first data value associated with the inventory item and a second data value associated with the inventory item, the second data value identifying the inventory item as one of damaged and non-conforming, wherein the first data value and the second data value are provided upon event occurrence at the mobile device; localizing, using the processor in conjunction with a set of sensor devices of the mobile device, the mobile device to a first location within the bounded area based on accessing a fingerprint data mapping of the bounded area and at least one of an orientation, a magnetic field strength and direction, a received wireless communication signal strength, and a barometric pressure in conjunction with the fingerprint data, wherein the fingerprint data further includes respective time-stamps whereby the orientation, the magnetic field strength and direction, the received wireless signal strength, and the barometric pressure are correlated for a position along a trajectory the mobile device in accordance with respective time-stamps; comparing, using the processor, the at least a first data value and the first location with a set of data values of the inventory control record associated with the inventory item; and based on comparing, managing the inventory item in the bounded area, wherein managing includes at least one of an updating an actual position of the inventory item, based on the comparison and localization, and designating the inventory item as an outlier inventory item, based on the second data value.
