Abstract

Systems and methods described herein include a testing apparatus on which a peripheral device may be secured in a predefined, consistent orientation. The peripheral device includes a UWB antenna on a first printed circuit board that is at an angle to a second printed circuit board including one or more positioning sensors. The testing apparatus includes multiple wireless respondents at predefined distances and orientations relative to the peripheral device secured to the testing apparatus. A computing device generates a calibration vector based on measured vectors from the first printed circuit board to the wireless respondents and predetermined vectors from the second printed circuit board to the wireless respondents. The calibration vector is used to calibrate a positioning algorithm of the peripheral device that determines a position and orientation of the peripheral device relative to the peripheral device's environment.
