    摘要: Methods and apparatus for verifying respective positions of Nodes based upon ultrawideband wireless communications between nodes included in an array. Values for variables derived from multiple wireless transmissions between the nodes are aggregated, and a position of a particular node may be determined based upon multiple data sets generated by multiple communications of disparate Nodes. Data is transmitted to a smart device based upon a position of a particular node and a direction of interest. In addition, the presence of an obstacle to wireless communication between some nodes may be derived from the data sets. A user interface may provide a pictorial view of positions of all or some Nodes in an array, as well as a perceived obstruction.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for determining an item of equipment in a direction of interest based upon coordinates derived from wireless communication between wireless transceivers. A smart device assembly is operative to communicate via multiple antennas with a reference point transceiver. A set of coordinates is generated indicating a relative position and/or angle of the wireless transceiver in relation to the reference position transceiver. A query may be made based upon the relative position and angle of the wireless transceiver in relation to the reference position transceiver. A response to the query may include a human readable interface indicating one or more of: direction of travel, a virtual image based upon location and location and direction, and annotative and pictorial information.
