Geopositioning

With modern GPS receivers, achieving precise positioning accuracy for AR objects in the real world is attainable through GPS alone. However, recognizing that GPS signals may face obstructions in urban settings or be unavailable indoors, we employ additional strategies to enhance accuracy. Leveraging highly efficient neural networks for object detection on both platforms, arbitrary images of the environment serve as "anchors" for AR objects. These "anchor" images enable the accurate positioning of AR objects in relation to them.

Furthermore, Bluetooth beacons present another avenue for accuracy improvement. Positioned as "anchors" themselves, these beacons can be strategically placed within a building. AR objects then align themselves relative to the known position of a beacon, offering an additional layer of precision. This versatile approach allows users to establish a global position for AR objects using a GPS "anchor" while utilizing several image or Bluetooth anchors to further refine local positioning accuracy.
