Abstract: A mobile device includes a rangefinder to measure ranges to points external to the device; a tracking sensor; and a controller connected with the rangefinder and the tracking sensor, the controller configured to: track successive poses of the mobile device in a frame of reference via the tracking sensor; responsive to a first activation of the rangefinder at a first one of the poses, generate a first position, in the frame of reference, of a first external point based on a first range from the rangefinder and the first pose; responsive to a second activation of the rangefinder at a second one of the poses, generate a second position, in the frame of reference, of a second external point based on a second range from the rangefinder and the second pose; and determine a distance between the first and second external points based on the first and second positions.

Abstract: A mobile computing device includes: a tracking sensor; a proximity sensor; and a controller coupled to the tracking sensor and the proximity sensor, the controller configured to: obtain a sequence of sensor datasets, each sensor dataset including: (i) a location of the mobile computing device, in a local coordinate system, generated using the tracking sensor, (ii) a proximity indicator generated using the proximity sensor, defining a range to a fixed reference device, and (iii) a predefined location of the reference device in a facility coordinate system; determine, from the sequence, an adjusted pose of an origin of the local coordinate system in the facility coordinate system; and generate, using a current location of the mobile device in the local coordinate system and the adjusted pose, a corrected location of the mobile computing device in the facility coordinate system; and execute a control action based on the corrected location.

Abstract: A mobile device includes: a camera; a display; a tracking sensor; and a controller connected to a repository of item identifiers and item positions in a facility frame of reference for items disposed on support surfaces within a facility, the controller configured to: track, via the tracking sensor, successive poses of the mobile device in the facility frame of reference; control the camera to capture a stream of images while tracking the poses, and for each image: determine, based on the tracked poses, whether to perform item detection, and when the determination is affirmative, (i) process the image to detect respective indicia affixed to a subset of the items and decode respective item identifiers from the indicia, (ii) generate positions of the detected indicia in the facility frame of reference, based on the poses of the mobile device, and (iii) update the repository with the decoded item identifiers and the generated positions.
