In order to sufficiently and efficiently sterilize hospital rooms using UV radiation, it is crucial to have a positioning system to report the location of the radiation detecting sensors. The sensors determine when the room is sufficiently sterilized, and the positioning system maps the room and ensures that the sensors are placed in the correct location. The scope of this project is to create and test a system to report location of the sensors and to improve the current room mapping algorithm.
