Oostwegel, Laurens (author)Unlike outdoor environments, there is no wide-spread solution to positioning inside a building. Indoorsolutions rely on pre-installation of infrastructure, such as Bluetooth beacons or ultra-wide bandtechnology. Recently, there has been growing interest in the use of Augmented Reality (AR) for indoorpositioning. AR devices use an algorithm known...master thesis 2020

van Groeningen, T. (author), Driessen, J.N. (author), Söhl, J. (author), Voûte, R.L. (author)When the fire brigade arrives at a burning building, it is of vital importance that people who are still inside can quickly be found. Smart buildings should be able to expose this location data to the fire brigade working in a smart city. In this paper the feasibility is researched of using ultrasonic sound sensors for human presence detection...journal article 2018

Haagmans, Gaston (author)Since GPS tends to fail for indoor positioning purposes, alternative methods like indoor positioning systems (IPS) based on Bluetooth low energy (BLE) are developing rapidly. Generally, IPS are deployed in environments covered with obstacles such as furniture, (partition-) walls, people and electronics influencing the signal propagation. The...master thesis 2017

Spijkerman, B. (author)Discus throwing outdoors provides the coach and athlete with direct feedback on the performance in the form of a final distance. Even by eye this can intuitively be judged. When switching to indoor training come winter, this intuitive measure is taken away as the athletes throw into a net suspended 5–8 metres in front of them. The coach believes...master thesis 2017
