Automated Room-Level Localisation Using Building Plan Information.

Building Management Systems (BMSs) are transitioning from utilising wired installations to wireless Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and actuators. This shift introduces the requirement of robust localisation methods which can link the installed sensors to the correct Control Units (CTUs) which will facilitate continued communication. In order to lessen the installation burden on the technicians, the installation process should be made more complicated by the localisation method.

Comparison of WLAN Probe and Light Sensor-Based Estimators of Bus Occupancy Using Live Deployment Data.

Bus company operators are interested in obtaining knowledge about the number of passengers on their buses-preferably doing so at low deployment costs and in an automated manner, while keeping accuracy high. One solution, widely used in practice, involves deploying a light sensor-based system, counting the people entering and leaving the bus. The light sensor system is simple, but errors accumulate over time, because it is not capable of error correcting.
