Proximity-based systems: Incorporating mobility and scalability through proximity sensing
This thesis argues that the concept of spatial proximity offers a viable and practical option for the development of context-aware systems for highly mobile and dynamic environments. Such systems would overcome the shortcomings experienced by today’s location-based and infrastructure dependent …

Sensor exploration for localization in cleanrooms
… parts: presence detection, movement tracking and proximity sensing. The unique challenges for each of these parts facing the cleanroom environments are evaluated and then solved using specific technologies: 1) RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is used for presence detection to automatically …

Urbanhermes : fashion signaling and the social mobility of images
… pass along images from bag to bag, and potential proximity sensing adds awareness of others nearby who share a similar fashion signal. Dynamically formed communities interplay and merge through the coupled system of shared images. Urbanhermes, through adding layers of highly temporal information …

The Use of Virtual Environments in Internet-Based Teleoperation
… with representing the physical processes of proximity sensing, and contact and collision detection, in virtual environments have been approached by decomposing the graphical models of the virtual environment and mapping them into the configuration space of the robot manipulator. The …
