A short-range tracking system based on bluetooth radio identification: An algorithm and its implementation

Abstract

The paper describes the application of radio signal in the development of a short-ranged camera-tracking system. Object tracking can enable the static or mobile objects owners to observe their objects in a local position or remotely via the Internet. The tracking system uses Bluetooth (BT) radio frequency to track an object fitted with a radio transmitter. The use of BT receiver and motor-tracking system makes it possible to monitor many BT transmitters at once. Thus, the movements of a number of pets that carries a BT transmitter can be tracked. In this paper, we also present a location-tracking algorithm, which utilizes the tracking process.
