RollCaller: User-Friendly Indoor Navigation System Using Human-Item Spatial Relation Yi Guo, Lei Yang, Bowen Li, TianciLiu, YunhaoLiu Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong y School of Software and TNLIST, Tsinghua University, China
Outline Motivation Our observation: Human-Item Spatial Relation System design: User-Friendly Indoor Navigation Implementation and Evaluation
Motivation When we are searching something in libraries or supermarkets…
Motivation Items are now tagged with RFID tags
Motivation Items are now tagged with RFID tags Using existing RFID localization method is ok but wasteful
Motivation • Items are now tagged with RFID tags • Using existing RFID localization method is ok but wasteful • Need to locate the user and desired item separately • Not accurate enough to be aware when the user is right near the desired item • Noisy and volatile environment
Motivation • Items are now tagged with RFID tags • Using existing RFID localization method is ok but wasteful • Need to locate the user and desired item separately • Not accurate enough to be aware when the user is right near the desired item • Noisy and volatile environment
Methodology • Recall the difficulties using existing RFID localization: • Need to locate the user and desired item separately • Finding the spatial relation between the user and the item instead of finding their global cords • Human-Item Spatial Relation
Methodology • Recall the difficulties using existing RFID localization: • Need to locate the user and desired item separately • Finding the spatial relation between the user and the item instead of finding their global cords • Human-Item Spatial Relation • Not accurate enough to be aware when the user is right near the desired item • Should be aware when the user is right near the desired item
Methodology • Recall the difficulties using existing RFID localization: • Need to locate the user and desired item separately • Finding the spatial relation between the user and the item instead of finding their global cords • Human-Item Spatial Relation • Not accurate enough to be aware when the user is right near the desired item • Should be aware when the user is right near the desired item • Noisy and volatile environment • The characteristics we utilize should be environment insensitive
Doppler Frequency Shift in RFID • Definition: • The frequency change of the received reader carrier signal due to relative motion between the transmitter (RFID tag or the attached object) and the receiver (reader antenna)
Doppler Frequency Shift in RFID • Definition: • The frequency change of the received reader carrier signal due to relative motion between the transmitter (RFID tag or the attached object) and the receiver (reader antenna) • How Impinj reader measures Doppler frequency shift
Analysis Noise Stage
Analysis Noise Stage Peak Stage
Human-Item Spatial Relation • How to describe Human-Item Spatial Relation? • Anchor Time Stamp
Implementation Impinj Speedway Revolution RFID Reader loaded with software version Octane 4.8 4 directional reader antennas
Evaluation: Human-Item Spatial Relation Accuracy of Anchor Time Stamp
Evaluation: User-Friendly Navigation System Performance of Reader Antenna Relation Map Generation
Evaluation: User-Friendly Navigation System Performance of User Navigation Service
Evaluation: User-Friendly Navigation System Performance of User Navigation Service (cont.)
Conclusion • A novel approach is proposed to depict the spatial relation between user and item using Doppler frequency shift in RFID system. • A user-friendly indoor navigation system is designed based on the human-item spatial relation • Further works • Multi-user scenario • Real-world deployment
