  text: 'The localization of employees in the industrial environment plays a major
    role in the development of future intelligent user interfaces and systems. Yet,
    localizing people also raises ethical, legal and social issues. While a precise
    localization is essential for context-aware systems and real-time optimization
    of processes, a permanently high localization accuracy creates opportunities for
    surveillance and therefore has a negative impact on workplace privacy. In this
    paper, we propose a new concept of a multi-level localization system which tries
    to find a way to meet both the technical requirements for a localization with
    a high accuracy as well as the interests of employees in terms of privacy. Depending
    on the users’ location, different localization technologies are used, that restrict
    the accuracy to the least required level by design. Furthermore, we present a
    prototypical implementation of the concept that shows the feasibility of our multi-level
    localization concept. Using this system, intelligent systems become able to react
    on employees based on their location without permanently monitoring the precise
    user location. '
