Abstract. This paper describes a new device for the easy construction of smart spaces. Based on a magnetic method, the device can provide non-contact, bi-directional communication as well as location and orientation es-timation for indoor objects. An initial experimentation shows that the device can determine location and orientation with an accuracy of about 5 mm and 5 degrees, respectively. 1.
