Abstract:
Systems, apparatus and methods disclosed herein facilitate vision based mobile device location determination. In some embodiments, a method for estimating a position of a mobile device may comprise: detecting that the mobile device is in communication with at least one of a plurality of devices, where each of the plurality of devices associated with a corresponding device identifier. The capture of at least one image by an image sensor coupled to the mobile device may be triggered, based, in part on: the device identifier corresponding to the device in communication with the mobile device, and/or a field of view of the image sensor. A location of the mobile device may then be determined, based, in part, on the at least one captured image.
