    摘要: [Object] The present disclosure provides an information processing apparatus in which, when a positioning technology through use of sensors is applied to a large moving body, accuracy in detecting a position in the moving body can be improved. [Solution] Provided is an information processing apparatus including: an estimation unit configured to, on a basis of first sensing data provided by a plurality of sensors carried or worn by a user, estimate a type of a moving body on which the user is riding; and a selection unit configured to select information to be used for processing for obtaining a position of the user in the moving body using the type of the moving body estimated by the estimation unit.

    摘要: One or more devices in a data analysis computing system may be configured to receive and analyze acceleration data corresponding to driving data, analyze the acceleration data, and determine driving patterns and associated drivers based on the data. Acceleration data may be collected by one or more mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablet computers, and/or on-board vehicle systems. Drivers associated with driving trips may be identified based on the acceleration data collected by the mobile devices. In some cases, driving patterns may be determined based on the acceleration data before and after stopping points during driving trips, and the driving patterns may be compared to a set of previously stored driving patterns associated with various different drivers.

    摘要: A device and a method for determining a rough component of a latitude or longitude position of a moving craft. The position is reconstructed cyclically by combining the rough component with a corresponding fine component. The device determines the sign of a difference between the fine component for an acquisition cycle and the fine component for a preceding acquisition cycle. The device then computes the rough component corresponding to the given acquisition cycle of the fine component, as a function of the sign of the difference and of the sign and of the value of the speed of the craft. The device and the corresponding method make it possible to extrapolate an unrefreshed rough component as a function of the trend of the fine component and of the sign of the speed of the moving craft to reduce error associated with the computation of the latitude or longitude position.

    摘要: A system and method for providing location information using a long baseline accelerometer/GNSS system. A first set of accelerometers is operatively associated with the first GNSS antenna while a second set of accelerometers is operatively associated with a second (or more) GNSS antenna. The multiple assemblies are separated by predefined distances and held rigid to each other. Accelerometer data is combined with the GNSS data to provide improved navigation and location information.

    摘要: A method for filtering in ranging of a UAV is provided, which is based on a characteristic that velocities of the UAV change continuously during a moving process. A current velocity of the UAV is obtained via seeking difference of distances measured by the sensor, then a variance of continuous velocities is calculated and it is determined whether a current distance is valid according to the variance. The general process of the method is as follows. First, initial distances measured by the sonar sensor are acquired, secondly, it is determined whether a new distance is valid according to the initial distances, if the new distance satisfies a curtain condition, the new distance is considered to be valid and the initial distances are updated; if the new distance does not satisfy the curtain condition, a distance is estimated and used as the current distance and the initial distances are maintained.
