Advanced micro-location of RFID tags in 3D and 2D spatial environments includes a mobile platform having a known location within a three-dimensional (3D) space. A plurality of RFID tags is located within the 3D space. A plurality of RFID antennas is mounted on the mobile platform, wherein backscatter signals of at least one of the RFID tags are collected by at least one of the plurality of RFID antennas and time-synchronized with the known location of the mobile platform in the 3D space at a time of collection. A computerized processing device is in communication with the plurality of RFID antennas. The computerized processing device performs algorithmic RFID tag localization using at least the collected backscatter signals of the at least one RFID tag and the time-synchronized known location of the mobile platform to determine a micro-location of the at least one RFID tag within the 3D space.

An intelligent system for performing inventory management within a facility includes at least one imaging sensor, a transmitter for sending inventory information to a database, a receiver for receiving information from a database, and a computer in communication with the locomotion platform, at least one imaging sensor, the transmitter, and the receiver. The computer is configured to capture inventory images from the at least one imaging sensor, detect inventory by comparing captured inventory images with stored inventory images, determine inventory information, determine a confidence level for the inventory information, and communicate at least a portion of the inventory information to the database. In one embodiment, the system includes a robot having a locomotion platform, the at least one imaging sensor, the transmitter, the receiver, and the computer.
