Abstract
Disclosed is a sensor enabled object. Beacons may be placed at fixed locations within an environment. The movement of the sensor enabled object can be tracked throughout the environment by analyzing received signals. The relative distances from the known positions of the beacons can be used in order to orient the sensor enabled object within the environment. Alternatively, the sensor enabled objects can be used to determine the relative positions of mobile objects by measuring the respective distances from each other and correlating the relationships.
