They should get a special one of these set up for Joe Biden, so that every time he gets within six feet of a little girl, it sets off alarms all over the world.

“Check how the MTA is tracking trains with
a company called Piper.”

Not related to GPS.

“I mentioned a trio of drones, because triangulation is
used to deduce specific locations, mostly by comparing
signal strengths/directions from multiple detectors.”

Relative, not absolute positions

So a Drone with its own GPS along with BLE, or just the
passive ability to detect BLE (or whatever type of signals
you care to design for) can fly around and take multiple
measurements, and share with other units doing the same and
thus triangulate in 3 space all the target emissions.

Or Back doors into device operating systems or apps could
allow the target devices to do all the work for you.

Or people can opt into apps on their devices that will do it all.

Or those apps can be required, like in China, and report
your current immunity status as well.

I have one of those fancy FLIR cameras you can plug into
your phone and see someone’s face temperature from 10 feet
away.

Those can be used on drones, or kiosks, or anywhere, too.

The tech is easy. Stopping our would be masters from
controlling us with it is another matter.

I think you need. to research BLE positioning technology.

You don’t actually have to use the BLE positioning tech,
if you can detect it’s EM radiation and triangulate the source.

What good does that do?

If you can identify and triangulate the separate moving radio
sources you don’t even need to bother decoding them.
You can track and tell if they get too close to each other.

Then your Drone can admonish the offenders, like in China,
where they have to show the drone their immunity app display
from their phone, for example.

Let me put it this way...

Have you ever seen an image from a radio telescope?

Have you considered that we can point things like that,
down, as well as up?

And the antennas don’t have to be so big if you can etch
thousands of them in a little array, and you’re not trying
to look all the way across the universe.

Like I said, at this point, the technology is easy.

The hard part is staying free when the control freaks
want to use it all so badly.

I see. But what does that have to do with GPS?

Three drones with radio sensors and antenna arrays could determine the locations of nearby radio sources, relative to the drone positions.

GPS capability would provide the Drone positions, to add the relative radio source position information to, giving planetary location for the radio sources.
