Systems and methods for locating or tracking devices using proximal groupings of devices

Abstract

Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprise an analytic server, which tracks and locates electronic devices (e.g., wireless devices and devices enabled with wireless transmitters). The analytic server monitors wireless signals detected by different observer devices at different time points. The analytic server analyzes the wireless signals to build signal graph and generate hyperclusters. When the analytic server receives a request of finding a lost/missing device, the analytic server receives observations from observer devices that detect the wireless signals from the missing device, determine signal context (e.g., hypercluster) and geolocation of the missing device based on observations from observer devices, performs resolution to narrow down the geolocation. The analytic server also combats different forms of active attacks. The analytic server generates a graphical user interface comprising the location information of the missing device.
