Wearable proximity estimation in the range of 0.2–2.5 m based on oscillating magnetic fields. (A) Distance versus received signal strength analysis. (B) Wearable prototype hardware. (C) Study data analysing BT and magnetic field based proximity estimation in a shop scene with five participants (P1-5) in groups (P1, P2) and (P3, P4), while P5 is further away. Top panel: BT signals are weakly separable. Bottom panel: Example magnetic field-based distance estimates for P3 showing rare events of getting below 2 m to others than P4. (D) Analysis scene from a workshop test of the proximity estimation methods.
