In this section, we will study how triangulation algorithms can be helpful in determining indoor location.
Note
Although Estimote Beacons don't claim to use a triangulation algorithm in their data science, it is one of a few possibilities.
In the previous chapter, we had a thorough introduction to Estimote Beacons and how they can be implemented in various applications. In this chapter, we will especially target Estimote Location Beacons and implement an indoor navigation system. Estimote Location Beacons are custom-tailored for location services and can be purchased from their website. These beacons are good for prototyping and enterprise applications. They also support mesh networking and have built-in sensors (temperature, motion, light, and magnetometer) and broadcast up to eight simultaneous packets.
