To keep deployment costs down, the indoor space in our solution is instrumented with (battery) as well as wired Edison devices, which provide both compute and BLE capabilities. Entities with managerial responsibilities in these scenarios can be equipped with both localization modalities: UWB tags and a BLE capable device (current generation smartphone or tablet), and are set up to maintain the BLE Received Signal Strength Intensity (RSSI) fingerprint map using the UWB positioning data as ground truth. The remaining entities rely exclusively on BLE RSSI fingerprinting-based localization using their smartphones.}, year = {2017}, journal = {20th IEEE International Symposium on Real-Time Computing (ISORC)}, month = {05/2017}, publisher = {IEEE}, }
