Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for enhancing target positioning. A broadcast signal from a device is received by at one or more access points, where a first position area of the device is determined from an analysis of the broadcast signal. A second position area of the target, which is within the first position area, is determined by scanning pixels within the first position area in an image captured by the camera and, based on the scanned pixels, at least one target comprising a portion of the pixels is detected. The target within the image is classified, and based on the classification and portion of the pixels comprising the target, the second position area of the target within the first position of the image is triangulated.
