KAILOS

Indoor positioning from the wireless environment around you.

KAILOS combines Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signals with mobile sensor data, indoor maps and positioning algorithms to enable location awareness inside buildings.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Hybrid indoor positioning

Indoor environments are complex. KAILOS is designed to use multiple sources of information — including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and device sensors — and combine them through positioning and filtering techniques to improve location estimation.

  • Wi-Fi access points
  • Radio-map fingerprints
  • Device motion (steps)
  • Position estimate
KAILOS combines Wi-Fi and Bluetooth observations, a radio map, device motion and the indoor map to estimate position inside a building.

CAPABILITIES

From floor plan to location service.

Build the radio map

KAILOS includes technologies and tools for creating the radio-map information required by fingerprint-based indoor positioning. Its research foundation includes crowdsourced approaches for constructing and maintaining radio maps.

Map the building

A web-based map workflow supports building registration, floor-plan registration and survey planning so an indoor positioning environment can be prepared systematically.

Collect positioning data

Walking-survey workflows capture Wi-Fi and sensor measurements that can be used to construct indoor positioning data.

Build location-aware applications

KAILOS was designed as more than a positioning algorithm. Its location-service platform includes interfaces for indoor map information, routing and other location-aware application functions.
