Zusammenfassung: | Techniques are presented herein for a server to automatically determine the locations of collaboration endpoints and user devices throughout a building, and then provide the user devices with directions to the endpoints. The server collects air pressure and GPS readings from the user devices over a period of time. The readings may be collected from user devices that are paired or unpaired with endpoints at the time of the readings. Over a period of time, the plurality of readings may be used by the server to calculate user device offsets, endpoint offsets, floor level offsets, and endpoint relative orientations within the building. The server may then, in response to a notification of an upcoming meeting, provide the user device with directions to the meeting based on the collected readings. |
