Client-side visualisation of the barnowl-barnacles-barterer stack using AngularJS, D3js and socket.io. Currently supports four views:

• real-time RSSI chart of a single transmitter on all receivers
• real-time RSSI bar chart of all transmitters on a single receiver
• real-time table of events
• real-time location of a single transmitter on a two-dimensional grid

RSSI: Received Signal Strength Indication

Simply clone the repository and open the index.html file in your favourite web browser. Or forego installation completely and run it from reelyactive.github.io/barstool.

Barstool presents four interfaces:

• Transmitter
• Receiver
• Events
• Location

The transmitter interface visualises a single radio transmitter. The real-time RSSI on all receivers in range is displayed as a line chart.

The receiver interface visualises a single radio receiver. The real-time RSSI for each detected transmitter is displayed as a bar chart. This includes the latest (orange), average (blue) and fluctuation (grey) of the RSSI.

Description to come.

The location interface visualises a single radio transmitter on a two-dimensional grid. All receivers in range are displayed on the grid at user-defined locations. The real-time location of the transmitter is displayed as a heat map based on the corresponding RSSI and location of each receiver:

• the more red a cell is, the more likely the transmitter is located near it
• the more black a cell is, the less likely the transmitter is located near it

Each receiver's location is represented by a colored dot. A halo surrounding the dot represents the most likely locations of the transmitter based on an idealised RSSI-to-range calculation. In a perfect world (which any radio engineer will adamantly argue does not exist), the transmitter would be located at the intersection of all the halos.

The grid is represented as a square 800 pixels on each side. Note that the X and Y coordinates of each receiver are given in pixels while the scale of the grid is given by the Squares/metre parameter. The 10m scale indication at the bottom-left of the grid is helpful for positioning the receivers as per their relative physical locations.

• An event interface.
• Displaying blink rates.
• The option to choose the polling rate.
