Collaborative Spatial Positioning
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for collaborative spatial position determination between objects, comprising:
- receiving by a first object positional information derived from one or more disparate position determination techniques;
combining positional information from one or more disparate position determination techniques to determine a first object spatial position;
establishing peer-to-peer communication between the first object to a second object; and
exchanging between the first object and the second object positional information wherein the second object determines a second object spatial location based in part on positional information and peer-to-peer relational information received by the first object.

Abstract
Disparate positional data derived from one or more positional determinative resources are fused with peer-to-peer relational data to provide an object with a collaborative positional awareness. An object collects positional determinative information from one or more positional resources so to independently determine its spatial location. That determination is thereafter augmented by peer-to-peer relational information that can be used to enhance positional determination and modify behavioral outcomes.

17. A system for collaborative determination of spatial position, comprising:
-
a first object a second object one or more disparate position determination resources operable to determine for the first object a first object spatial position; and a communication link between the first object and the second object wherein the second object is operable to determine for the second object a second object spatial position based, at least in part, on first object spatial position and peer-to-peer relational information received from the first object. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A system for collaborative determination of spatial position, comprising:
-
a first transceiver operable to receive positional information of a first object derived from one or more disparate position determination techniques; a memory operable to store positional information received from the one or more disparate position determination techniques; a second transceiver operable establish peer-to-peer communication between the first object to a second object; a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and capable of executing instructions embodied as software; and a plurality of software portions, wherein one of said software portions is configured to determine a variance in the positional information received from each of the one or more disparate position determination techniques, one of said software portions is configured to combine positional information received from the one or more disparate position determination techniques to determine a first object spatial position, and one of said software portions is configured to exchange between the first object and the second object positional information and peer-to-peer relational information so as to enable the second object to determine a second object spatial location based, in part, on the first object'"'"'s spatial position. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)
