  • Patent number: 10200819
    Abstract: Systems and methods improve virtual reality and augmented reality functionality for mobile devices using radio frequency (RF) signals transmitted by a tracked device and received at four or more spatially separated antennae. These antennae are connected, wirelessly or through wired connections, to a base station. Through RF signal time of arrival information acquired at the antennae, the base station can continuously determine accurate position information of the tracked device, without lighting or line of sight limitations experienced by camera and other optical systems. As the position of the RF-transmitting tracked device is registered within a virtual environment produced by an interactive software program in communication with (or part of) the base station, the virtual viewpoint of the tracked device is controlled to reflect the relative position and orientation of the tracked device with respect to the virtual environment produced by the software program and displayed on a view screen.

  • Publication number: 20170261592
    Abstract: Systems and methods for position tracking include at least three spatially separated radio-frequency (RF) sources of radio signals. Each RF source is disposed in an area at a location known to that RF source. Each RF source includes an RF transmitter configured to transmit radio signals that carry a unique identifier and the known location of that RF source. The position tracking system and method include at least one tag. Each tag is coupled to a different mobile object and includes a radio module with an RF receiver for receiving the radio signals transmitted by the at least three spatially separated RF sources. Each tag further includes memory and a processor that executes executable code stored in the memory to compute a range from that tag to each of the at least three RF sources and to compute a position of that tag based on at least three computed ranges.
