Seamless and Smooth Location Everywhere with the new FusedLocationProvider
summary
Explains that the FusedLocationProvider now fuses radios and inertial sensors with Hybrid Bayesian fusion to give location that is more accurate, smoother, ubiquitous and instant; demos show indoor transitions working without surveyed infrastructure and a live indoor trace that stays continuous. Covers concrete tools and tradeoffs: step-by-step pedestrian dead reckoning, magnetic attitude handling, a 5 s sample example and power vs. priority settings, and upcoming support for Wi‑Fi RTT plus improvements deployed via Google Play services.
