AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on developing a highly accurate location-finding system for augmented reality, aiming for precision within 1mm over a 1500m x 500m area, supporting at least 20,000 users. The technology is expected to be feasible within the next decade, as advancements have progressed since the idea was conceived in 2008. A closed-loop system is desired, with minimal device power consumption for users. Suggestions include utilizing inverse GPS signals with ground-based repeaters, a method already established in missile and aircraft testing. Recommendations for potential vendors include Rockwell and Trimble for quotes on such systems.

So after talking about it with some future partners. We are looking to do something in the future. not this year, probably not next, but maybe within the next ten. I have had this idea since 2008 and now the technology is almost there.

i'm looking to either build or buy a location system capable of being as accurate as possible, EXCESSIVELY so. it needs to support at least 20,000 users and help them all find VERY accurate location information. the size of the area is about 1500m x 500m, all one level, very minimal interference(line of sight from one corner to the other) Needs to be closed loop. I will delete the info after it is done, the location will not move or change size. I would like accuracy down to less than 1mm throughout the whole field. but I could totally get it to work with 5-10 cm, just wouldn't be perfect like I want. system must be capable of generating location then sending coordinates to the users device so that the power isn't constantly drained from their devices, or should be able to, can make due without/if not possible.

So I know I sound new to this, and I am. But I am motivated to get this all done as well as possible. Everything worth doing is worth doing right. Sorry I can't give out more details about it. We all decided to keep our mouths shut about it thus far.

what is the most accurate, high distance, very high user count location system that I could either build or buy?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Centimeter accuracy is routinely achieved with inverse GPS signals, where a mini GPS range is established using ground based repeaters. It is used for missile and aircraft testing and is well established technology.
Call Rockwell or Trimble for quotes.
 
Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'
I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
