The projects goal was to make an already existing indoor positioning system useful forthe average smartphone user. This was achieved by creating an Android applicationwhich, along with a running server, continuously presents the user with all the currentneeded information. It uses the graphics engine andEngine to create the graphical userinterface. The application was created in the development environments Eclipse andAndroid Studio.

Real-time asset tracking can be used to increase personnel safety, security and workflow in different types of facility’s or assembly lines.

The task was to construct and evaluate the server software that will handle incoming data from the sensor network, but also how it uses the data to calculate the position of the tracked asset.

Many animation systems rely on key-frames or poses to produce animated sequences of figures we interpret as articulated, e.g. the skeleton of a character. The production of poses is a difficult problem which can be solved by using techniques such as forward and inverse kinematics. However, animators often find these techniques difficult to work with. The work, presented in this thesis, proposes an innovative technique which approaches this problem from a totally different direction from conventional techniques, and is based on Interactive Genetic Algorithms (IGAs).

Abstract:
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space based satellite navigation system. It provides location and time information in all weather, anywhere on the earth. Unfortunately GPS fails to give position indoors, because it requires a direct line of sight to several satellites. Indoor locating systems can thus not use GPS, because signal strengths are weakened or cancelled by building structures. So we need another technology for positioning indoors. Wireless indoor positioning systems are very popular in recent years. These systems are successfully used to asset tracking. By using ultrasound

Abstract:
Today’s heavy duty vehicles are equipped with safety and comfort systems, e.g. ABS and ESP, which totally or partly take over the vehicle in certain risk situations. When these systems become more and more autonomous more robust positioning is needed. In the right conditions the GPS system provides precise and robust positioning. However, in harsh environments, e.g. dense urban areas and in dense forests, the GPS signals may be affected by multipaths, which means that the signals are reflected on their way from the satellites to the receiver. This can cause large errors in the positioning and

Abstract:
Marketing academics and practitioners consider brand positioning to be a key element of modern marketing management, branding, and strategy, given today's increasingly competitive marketplace. By way of its position, an offering seeks to take possession of a unique place in the minds of the targeted consumers, and in so doing, differentiates itself from the competition. Extant research confirms the importance of brand positioning, demonstrating that it positively affects, among other key factors, brand equity and value; consumer loyalty; and customer willingness to search and pay premium for a

Abstract:
Positioning is recognized as an important feature of fifth generation (\abbrFiveG) cellular networks due to the massive number of commercial use cases that would benefit from access to position information. Radio based positioning has always been a challenging task in urban canyons where buildings block and reflect the radio signal, causing multipath propagation and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) signal conditions. One approach to handle NLOS is to use data-driven methods such as machine learning algorithms on beam-based data, where a training data set with positioned measurements are used to train

Abstract:
This diploma thesis deals with the Precise Point Positioning (PPP) method in various variants. The thesis describes the theoretical foundations of the PPP method and the most important systematic errors that affect accuracy. The accuracy of the PPP method was evaluated using data from the permanent GNSS station CADM, which is part of the AdMaS research center. Data of the period 2018 – 2019 were processed. The results of combinations of different GNSS and the results of different observation periods were compared. Finally, the accuracy was verified at 299 IGS GNSS stations.
