+ | october 2014 -> ? USING REDPIN | ||
+ | |||
+ | * [[redpin-server|running redpin.jar]] on the edar server | ||
+ | * because of post issues (not able to open access to 8000 outside of epfl network) moved the server to KUCJICA. same process, same database; | ||
+ | |||
+ | MEASUREMENTS | ||
+ | |||
+ | * december 12, BC building; performed 4 measurements all lasting about 2 minutes. kept track of the movement by hand (noted positions and times on a peace of paper) and compared that to the data the app sent to the server; results can be found here [[http://kucjica.kucjica.org/emperors-vizi/bc-measurements-12-12-14.html|measurement tests 12.12.2014]] | ||

- | * running RedPinAndroid 75 crashes immediately, [[redpin-error-log|error log]] | ||
- | |||
- | * cannot start the server from Eclipse; | ||
- | * when running Redpin from an .apk, server is not reachable; | ||
- | * I don't understand how to start the Redpin server (other than running java -jar redpin.jar 5000 and connecting to the same network) | ||

+ | * wi-fi fingerprint based | ||
+ | * fingerprints need to be preset (define points on a map, scan and remember the results); after creating this base/dictionary of positions, it locates the user closest to the defined points; | ||
+ | |||
+ | TEST | ||
+ | |||
+ | * cloned the project [[git@github.com:TeroM/indoor-position-tracker.git]], loaded to Eclipse | ||
+ | * run on Motorola, loads and works well! | ||

+ | ===== conclusions ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | need something closest to the TeroM tool + a general map of the space; map the space out (preset points and scan the db at each point); load all this information in the app (with an option to edit or re-measure db strengths); |
