FIND – an indoor positioning system for smartphones and laptops

In plain words

FIND is an indoor positioning framework that uses WiFi signals to pinpoint the location of smartphones and laptops indoors. Designed for developers, it offers high-precision tracking across most WiFi-enabled devices. The system works by analyzing WiFi signal strengths to determine device positions within buildings, making it useful for navigation, asset tracking, and location-based applications where GPS is unavailable. The code is available as an open-source project on GitHub.
