Location sensors status: August 25, 2016 (continued)
We are currently of the opinion that we need quite a diverse lattice of
location sensors on each student and that the smart garment these sensors
are embedded in should be relatively easy to change, somewhat resistant
to everyday wear, and able to be laundered at least once in a while. In the
sketch below red stars indicate a location sensor sending along a sensor
ID, a timestamp including fractions of a second (we think tenths is
enough precision) and x, y, z coordinates. At this time, no plans to add a
a sensor near the chin to check how exposed the neck is, and no plans to
have sensors in the heels to check if they are or are not in contact with the
ground.
