Readme
This repository contains the core component for OpenHPS (Open Source Hybrid Positioning System). It includes concepts for creating the model, nodes and data object definitions.
OpenHPS is a data processing positioning framework. It is designed to support many different use cases ranging from simple positioning such as detecting the position of a pawn on a chessboard using RFID, to indoor positioning methods using multiple cameras.
Features
- 2D, 3D and Geographical positioning.
- Relative positioning.
- Basic positioning algorithms (e.g. trilateration, triangulation, fingerprinting, dead reckoning...)
- Advanced positioning algorithms (e.g. computer vision through @openhps/opencv)
- Extremely extensible.
- Open source.
Add-ons
Positioning Algorithms
- @openhps/imu - Adds IMU processing nodes for fusing IMU sensors.
- @openhps/rf - Adds RF processing nodes and data objects.
- @openhps/fingerprinting - Adds various fingerprinting nodes and services for offline and offline positioning models.
- @openhps/video - Provides general data objects and data frames for working with images, video data or cameras.
- @openhps/opencv - Provides linkage with opencv4nodejs and OpenCV.js for computer vision algorithms on the server or browser.
- @openhps/openvslam - Provides bindings to OpenVSLAM
- @openhps/orb-slam3 - Provides bindings to ORB-SLAM3
Abstractions
- @openhps/geospatial - Enables the concept of geospatial spaces (e.g. building, room) on top of reference spaces.
Data Services
- @openhps/mongodb - Adds MongoDB support for the storage of data objects.
- @openhps/localstorage - Basic persistent storage for browser based models.
- @openhps/rdf - RDF exporting of data objects and data frames.
- @openhps/solid - Solid Pods as data storage for data objects.
Communication
- @openhps/socket - Provides node communication through Socket.IO for remote models.
- @openhps/rest - Provides node communication through restful endpoints.
- @openhps/mqtt - MQTT client node communication and standalone MQTT server.
Smartphone
- @openhps/react-native - Provides nodes for retrieving sensor data in react-native.
- @openhps/nativescript - Provides nodes for retrieving sensor data in NativeScript.
- @openhps/cordova - Provides nodes for retrieving sensor data in Cordova/Phonegap.
- @openhps/capacitor - Provides nodes for retrieving sensor data in Ionic Capacitor.
Misc
- @openhps/sphero - Example implementation for controlling and receiving sensor data from Sphero toys.
- @openhps/csv - Read and write data frames from/to CSV files.
Getting Started
If you have npm installed, start using @openhps/core with the following command.
npm install @openhps/core --save
The core idea and goals of OpenHPS are outlined in the technical paper: OpenHPS: An Open Source Hybrid Positioning System.
Usage
import { ModelBuilder } from '@openhps/core';
ModelBuilder.create()
.build().then(model => {
// ...
});

Contributors
The framework is open source and is mainly developed by PhD Student Maxim Van de Wynckel as part of his research towards Hybrid Positioning and Interoperable Positioning Systems under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Beat Signer.
