Abstract:
A mobile device may determine a set of range values between the first mobile device and the second mobile device based on a difference between the first time and the second time for ranging wireless signals. The mobile device can determine first odometry information using a first sensor on the first mobile device, the first odometry information indicating a first motion of the first mobile device during a time period. The mobile device can receive, via a data channel, second odometry information determined from second measurements captured using a second sensor on the second mobile device. The mobile device can solve an angle between a first reference frame for the first device and a second reference frame for the second device using the set of range values, and the first and second odometry information to display a directional arrow pointing to a current position of the second mobile device.
