Re: Position Tracking Devices
Congrats to ken for making all of think "outside the box" and what is the actual original problem statement.
What is the actual "need" for tracking people on a basketball court?
Can the observer be a human just 'watching' the overhead video and drawing a player's track on the TV screen?
Can the observer be a PC doing vector triangualtion between two radio receivers?
What's the need?
Maybe the players can just "call out" their locations as the move.
Anyways, here's a really cool company that uses something called ultrawideband radio transmitters and receivers on peopel (belt-worn) inside building to track their exact location at any time:
