Poster Abstract: LocaLight - A Battery-Free Passive Localization System Using Visible Light
Most existing indoor localization systems are battery-powered and use the changes in Radio Frequency (RF) signals to localize objects. In this paper, we present LocaLight: a battery-free indoor localization system that localizes objects using visible light by tracking the shadow they cast. By sensing a drop in the intensity of ambient light caused by the presence of a shadow, LocaLight localizes the object. Since the position of the shadow can be predicted, it is possible to localize the object in a sensitive area by carefully positioning the light sensors and the overhead lights. Our initial results suggest that LocaLight achieves an accuracy comparable to many of the state-of-the art solutions that use RF.
