Abstract
Systems and methods for determining the distance, location, position, and orientation of devices in a conference room using a video bar are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, a video bar may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the video bar to: transmit a signal in a conference room; in response to the transmission, receive an acknowledgement from a client Information Handling System (IHS) in the conference room, and determine a distance between the video bar and the client IHS based, at least in part, upon a Time-of-Flight (ToF) calculation, where the ToF calculation is based, at least in part, upon a difference between: (i) a time the acknowledgement is received, and (ii) a time of the transmission.
