Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for localizing smart devices in a structure. An image of a portion of at least one room of a structure may be rendered on a display of the mobile device. A point in the image may be determined where a nonlocalized device is depicted, the nonlocalized device being positioned in the at least one room of the structure. The nonlocalized device is localized in the at least one room of the structure based on a position and orientation of the mobile device relative to the at least one room of the structure and based on a location of the point in the image. Alternatively, a location of a nonlocalized device in the structure may be determined by using the location of a mobile device as proxy.
