Solutions

0) Bust the myths about beacon (education)1) Playful and/or useful experiences2) Context aware: Wearables3) Highly accurate trilateration (with clustering + machine learning)4) Better hardware: energy and power density, higher frequency, cheaper, scale

How Do Beacons Actually Work?

Info Sent:UUID B9407F30-F5F8-466E-AFF9-25556B57FE6DMajor: 555 / Minor: 555Tx = measured Average RSSI at 1 m

Settings:Output Power = -30db to +4dbTx= measured Average RSSI at 1 mFrequency = 1Hz Major / Minor

Measured Properties:RSSI = Received Signal Strength Indication

Consumers want technical help, accurate location, sales support, and easy checkout

Beacons Done Right

Indoor Localization

No one has implemented 1m accuracy indoor GPS yet, but we are close

Page 20: Leigh christie

20 Privileged & Confidential © Isobar 2014

Indoor Localization

Signal Absorption (at 2.4Ghz):Low: wood, plastics, and glassMedium: bricks and marbleHigh: plaster, cementVery high: metal, water, human bodies

Interference: Microwaves, cordless phones, WIFI, other Bluetooth Devices

Wearables

Beacons bring location awareness, wearables bring contextual awareness

How Distance Is Measured

double ratio = rssi*1.0/txPower;

if (ratio < 1.0) { return Math.pow(ratio,10); } else { double accuracy = (0.89976)*Math.pow(ratio,7.7095) + 0.111; return accuracy; }

Path Loss Constant
