We therefore employ a recently presented probabilistic fingerprinting technique called RFID snapshots. This method interprets short series of RFID measurements as feature vectors and is able to position a mobile robot after a training phase. It requires no explicit sensor model and is capable of exploiting given tag infrastructures, e.g., provided by supermarket shelves containing labeled products.
