  • LOCATION DETERMINATION USING A PLURALITY OF GEO-LOCATION TECHNIQUES
    Publication number: 20240219583
    Abstract: According to examples, a system for determining a location using a plurality of geo-location techniques is described. The system may include a processor and a memory storing instructions. The processor, when executing the instructions, may cause the system to receive sensor data associated with the location, receive image information associated with the location, analyze the image information associated with the location, and provide a localization and mapping analysis for the location. The processor, when executing the instructions, may then determine an analyzed list of features and a primary landmark associated with the location, and determine location information for the location based on the analyzed list of features and the primary landmark.

  • Methods, devices, and computer readable storage devices for tracking the locations of mobile target communication devices with respect to the location of a host communication device over time
    Patent number: 9380426
    Abstract: A distance between a host communication device and a mobile target communication device at multiple times over a time period based on a received signal emitted by the mobile target communication device. An amount of time that the distance between the host communication device and the mobile target communication device is within a distance threshold is also determined. A determination is further made whether the amount of time the distance between the host communication device and the mobile target communication device is within the distance threshold is less than a predetermined amount of time. If the amount of time that the distance between the host communication device and the mobile target communication device is within the distance threshold is less than the predetermined amount of time, transmission of a notification to a third party is initiated via a gateway.
