Image Positioning goniometer stage.jpg thumb A miniature electro mechanical goniometer stage manufactured by Zaber Technologies Inc http www.zaber.com . This type of stage is used primarily in the field of lasers and optics. A positioning goniometer or goniometric stage is a device used to rotate an object precisely within a small angular range about a fixed axis in space. Its appearance is similar to that of a linear stage . However, rather than moving linearly with respect to its base, the stage platform rotates partially about a fixed axis above the mounting surface of the platform. The distance of the center of rotation from the platform mounting surface is often chosen so that two different goniometer models may be stacked in an X Y configuration and both stages will rotate about the same point. Positioning goniometers typically use a worm drive with a partial worm wheel fixed to the underside of the stage platform meshing with a worm in the base. The worm may be rotated manually or by a motor as in automated positioning systems. See also Goniometer Category Positioning instruments technology stub ... more details

A positioning system is a mechanism for determining the location of an object in space. Technologies for this task exist ranging from worldwide coverage with meter accuracy to workspace coverage with sub millimetre accuracy. Interplanetary systems Interplanetary radio communication system not only communicate with spacecraft, but are also used to determine their position. This can be done either using a transponder on board a spacecraft that echoes a radio signal back, or using radar . Orientation information can be obtained using star tracker s. Global systems Global navigation satellite system s GNSS allow specialized radio receivers to determine their 3 D space position, as well as time, with an accuracy of 2 20 metres or tens of nanoseconds. Currently deployed systems use microwave signals that can only be received reliably outdoors and that cover most of Earth s surface, as well as near Earth space. The existing and planned systems are Global Positioning System US military system, fully operational since 1995 GLONASS a partially completed Russian military system Galileo satellite navigation Galileo a planned European civilian system Compass navigation system a planned project in China Indian Regional Navigational Satellite System a planned project in India Regional systems Networks of land based positioning transmitter allow specialized radio receivers to determine their 2 D position on the surface of the Earth.

refimprove date September 2009 Image baseballpositioning normal.png thumb Normal depth In baseball and softball , while there are nine named Baseball positions fielding positions , players may move around freely. The positioning for the nine positions is very flexible, although they all have regular depths &mdash distances from home plate , and sometimes lateral positioning. A shift means that a player is playing in a noticeably different location than the norm for his positioning. A fielder who is playing shallow or in is playing closer to home plate, while a player playing deep is playing farther from home plate than normal. Regular terms are used for some positionings, for example, double play depth is used when there is a force play at second base . This means the shortstop and second baseman are playing slightly closer to second base and sometimes a little bit shallower. This position makes it easier to turn the double play. Bringing the corners in means the first and third baseman are both playing in , this will often be used with runners at third base or when a bunt baseball bunt is anticipated. The disadvantage of these defensive shifts is that they make more room for the hitter to hit the ball through the gaps for a base hit. Sometimes in the bottom half of the ninth inning or later , when a team has a man on third base and less than two outs, the defending team will pull the outfields in very far, almost creating three extra infielders. This is sometimes known as do or die depth. There are also some very irregular positionings. For example, versus excellent left handed pull hitters like Ted Williams , David Ortiz , and Ryan Howard , teams will move more players to the right side of the field. They sometimes play with the shortstop behind or even to the right of second base. The second baseman may simply move to the right, in which case this just qualifies as a shift, or he might move deeper into shallow right field &mdash this particular formation is calle ... more details
Positioning system s will use positioning technology to determine the position and orientation of an object or person in a room, building or in the world. Time of flight Time of flight systems determine the distance by measuring the time of propagation of pulsed signals between a transmitter and receiver. When distances of at least three locations are known, a fourth position can be determined using trilateration . Optical trackers, such as Laser rangefinder laser ranging trackers suffer from line of sight problems and their performance is adversely affected by ambient light and infrared radiation. On the other hand they do not suffer from distortion effects in the presence of metals and can have high update rates because of the speed of light. ref Position trackers for Head Mounted Display systems A survey, Devesh Kumar Bhatnagar, 29th of March, 1993 ref Ultrasonic sensor Ultrasonic trackers have a more limited range because of the loss of energy with the distance traveled. Also they are sensitive to ultrasonic ambient noise and have a low update rate. But the main advantage is that they do not need line of sight. Systems using radio waves such as the Global navigation satellite system do not suffer ambient light, but still need line of sight.

Two categories can be distinguished Inside out systems where the beacon is placed at a fixed position in the environment and the sensor is on the object Outside in systems where the beacons are on the target and the senors are at a fixed position in the environment By aiming the sensor at the beacon the angle between them can be measured.

Positioning data is digital it is easy to trace many people at the same time and it is possible to analyse movements in real time. The disadvantage of mobile positioning today is relatively low preciseness, the boom in the generation of phones with a GPS will raise positioning accuracy. The most important problems of SPM are related to data security, as well as concerns about non authorized personal surveillance.

Merge to Real time locating system date August 2011 A local positioning system LPS is a navigation system that provides location information in all weather, anywhere within the coverage of the network, where there is an unobstructed Line of sight propagation line of sight to three or more signaling beacons of which the exact position on earth is known. A special type of LPS is the Real time locating system which also allows real time tracking of an object or person. Use Unlike Global Positioning System GPS or other global navigation satellite system s, local positioning systems don t provide global coverage. Instead, they use a set of beacons which have a limited range, hence requiring the user to be near these. Beacons include cellphone cellular base station s, Wi Fi access points used by the Skyhook Wireless system , and radio broadcast tower s. In the past, long range LPS s have been used for navigation of ships and aircraft. Examples are the Decca Navigator System and LORAN . Nowadays, local positioning systems are often used as complementary and in some cases alternative positioning technology to GPS, especially in areas where GPS does not reach or is weak, for example, inside buildings, or urban canyon s. Local positioning systems using cellular broadcast towers are also heavily used to determine the current position of a person carrying a cellphone without GPS capability , ie for a wide array of services. See Mobile phone tracking Techniques An LPS can either use triangulation trilateration or multilateration to calculate the position of an object.
