The number of pedestrian accidents continues to keep climbing. Distraction from smartphone is one of the biggest causes for pedestrian fatalities. In this paper, we develop SaferCross, a mobile system based on the embedded sensors of…
Localization is a fundamental task in robotics for autonomous navigation. Existing localization methods rely on a single input data modality or train several computational models to process different modalities. This leads to stringent…
Automotive self-localization is an essential task for any automated driving function. This means that the vehicle has to reliably know its position and orientation with an accuracy of a few centimeters and degrees, respectively. This paper…
Emerging 5G millimeter-wave and sub-6 GHz networks enable high-accuracy indoor localization, but security and privacy vulnerabilities pose serious challenges. In this paper, we identify and address threats including location spoofing and…
Indoor localization opens the path to potentially transformative applications. Although many indoor localization methods have been proposed over the years, they remain too impractical for widespread deployment in the real world. In this…
In many hybrid wireless sensor networks' applications, sensor nodes are deployed in hostile environments where trusted and un-trusted nodes co-exist. In anchor-based hybrid networks, it becomes important to allow trusted nodes to gain full…
This paper proposes the inertial localization problem, the task of estimating the absolute location from a sequence of inertial sensor measurements. This is an exciting and unexplored area of indoor localization research, where we present a…
