During the past few years, several location systems have been proposed that use multiple technologies simultaneously in order to locate a user. One such system is described in this article. It relies on multiple sensor readings from Wi-Fi access points, IR beacons, RFID tags, and so forth to estimate the location of a user. This technique is known better as sensor information fusion, which aims to improve accuracy and precision by integrating heterogeneous sensor observations. The proposed location system uses a fusion engine that is based on dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs), thus substantially improving the accuracy and precision.

Surgeons are striving to achieve higher quality results in minimally invasive operation. Intelligent medical equipments are able to improve operation safety. Otological drill milling through a bone tissue wall is a common milling fault in ear surgery. In this paper a multi-sensor information fusion method for identifying milling faults is presented. Five surgeons experimented on calvarian bones using the intelligent otological drill. The average recognition rate of milling faults was 91%, and only 0.8% of normal millings were identified as milling faults.
