Solution Name

DOLPHIN Indoor Positioning Service (IPS)

Solution Description

There are many problems with existing indoor positioning services (IPSs). First and foremost, a poorly constructed and inaccurate map is the culprit to poor user experience. Besides, exhibition booth walls may cause IPS signals to drop off, and the resulting patchy connection would further frustrate users. Interference is also caused by reflective signals, or in multi-storey locations, signals from other floors. Such noise would interfere with positioning and undermine accuracy. Dolphin IPS is an effective indoor positioning system providing low cost, high accuracy, Plug-and-Play infrastructure and good user experience, and it is actually employing a proprietary fusion algorithm (including optimised BLE beacons settings, site planning, multilateral positioning, noise reduction, changing events, special event handling and stabilisation, etc.).
