Overview
Horus is an RF-based (radio frequency-based) location determination system capable of locating a user carrying an RF-based device. The system, through a probabilistic location determination technique and through advanced signal strength processing techniques, is highly accurate. Through clustering techniques the system requires low computational requirements.
The system requires no specialized hardware and like the ancient eye provides ubiquitous coverage and accuracy of location of a user up to a few feet. It can be implemented in mobile units and would, for instance, provide the location of rescue personnel at a disaster site.
