Abstract. Ubisense has developed a platform for building Smart Space applications. The platform addresses the key requirements for building Smart Spaces: accurate 3D positioning, scalable realtime performance, development and deployment tools. This paper deepens the key requirements and describes how the Ubisense platform components meets them. The demonstration exemplifies the smart space platform by tracking players in a game application.
The Ubisense Smart Space Platform
Ubisense has developed a platform for building Smart Space applications. Our platform addresses
the key requirements for building Smart Spaces:
Accurate 3D positioning supports applications that can perceive the physical relationships
between people and objects in the environment
Scalable real-time performance enables arbitrary numbers of applications, used by arbitrary
numbers of people over an arbitrarily-large area
Development and deployment tools make it easy to design, implement, and manage Smart
Space applications.
The demonstration shows a Smart Space containing applications that integrate with external
software (a simple game that users control by moving around), and devices (a PTZ camera that
keeps users in shot while they are playing the game)
This paper describes the components of the Ubisense platform and how they relate to the
requirements above.
