Bluetooth LE RSSI prob appropriate tech for solution in future or UWB RTLS. I remember some folks at google were looking at RTLS using SDR. I would love to have my robot dog follow me or maybe make a Dr Who K-9. I was think about using some simple ping monitors like these guys did. Could do this pretty easy in ARC I assume
I have a friend who owns a patent for a similar Bluetooth location tech. They used it to track individuals in crowds. Their specific outcome was to determine flow and identify the success of marketing/ads/attractions of businesses in malls. Such as, did more ppl who stopped to look at Nike shoes also stop to look at Nike sweaters etc etc. Plotting consumer behavior
we talked about the application with robotics for indoor navigation and also tracking based on signal strength of direction with multiple directional antennas.
We didn’t move far on the discussion because there was no off the shelf product that had universal application. Meaning, there wasn’t a thing we could buy that does this out of the box. That’s generally the largest hurdle we experience with adopting cutting edge technologies for robotics - because one guy could make a one-off prototype, but it’s not generic enough for anyone to use
the other issue we find is most videos are fake haha
