  • Patent number: 10215839
    Abstract: Embodiments herein disclose a pose detection device for a movable body and a location-based supplemental service providing system. The pose detection device includes a first polarization unit and a second polarization unit positioned to have transmission axis difference values different from each other, wherein the first polarization unit and the second polarization unit receiving light emitted from a polarized light source located beyond and apart from the first polarization unit and the second polarization unit. Further, the pose detection device includes a first illuminometer measures positioned below the first polarization unit and a second illuminometer positioned below the second polarization unit.

  • Patent number: 9921336
    Abstract: Accordingly the embodiment herein provides a device for recognizing a 3D posture and a location of a movable body. The device includes: a plurality of polarization modules individually attached to a plurality of surfaces of a 3D figure; a plurality of illumination modules individually corresponding to the polarization modules and generating and outputting illumination value information in which polarized light emitted from a polarization light source penetrates the corresponding polarization module to be received; and an interpretation unit generating posture information and location information of the movable body by using the illumination value information received from the illumination modules corresponding to the polarization modules attached to at least three considered target surfaces.
