US Patent Issued to Mapsted on Oct. 14 for "Determining motion in indoor space using probabilistic representation of motion transition" (Canadian Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 21 -- United States Patent no. 12,442,658, issued on Oct. 14, was assigned to Mapsted Corp (Oakville, Canada).

"Determining motion in indoor space using probabilistic representation of motion transition" was invented by Sean Huberman (Guelph, Canada), Ahmed Mahmood (Milton, Canada) and Vera Miller (Toronto).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A method and a device for determining motion of a device are described. In an example, a plurality of points-of-interest (POIs) are identified in a pedestrian area of an indoor space and, with each POI, a probabilistic representation of motion transition of a device from the POI is associated. The probabilistic representation of motion tr...
