LPS has growing applications, Commercial applications include asset tracking and resource management. Residential and nursing homes want to track people with special needs outside visual supervision. In public safety and military applications, location systems are used for tracking prisoners. In robotics, it has applications in Cluster bots, Swarm bots and diversified AI applications. The LPS proposed in this paper is low cost and high accuracy LPS. The proposed LPS locates the positioning of the object by using the principal of intersection of three planes whose normals are non coplanar to define a point. The LPS is constructed by using inexpensive hardware like pointing laser, DC motor, servomotor etc. The object is tracked by tracking the sensor patch mounted on the object. The orientation of the object could be determined using this developed LPS. The developed LPS requires a line of sight to track the object. Three experiments are conducted and tested in the research to investigate maximum working space and accuracy of position determined by LPS. The developed LPS was found to work in a three dimensional sphere of radius 32 ft (10 m approx) under ambient light conditions. The average error of locating the object was around 2.7%.
