Abstract | Visiting new building without knowing the location well can be very difficult to navigate from one room to the others. Currently, navigation system has been extensively developed for outdoor navigation, such as Google Maps, however not enough has been done for navigation indoor and still needs further development. This research uses magnetic fingerprint inside the building obtained by magnetic sensors embedded in most smart phones to identify the indoor location. The application can also be applied for visually impaired people to navigate freely inside the building without extra assistant. Smart devices are now becoming popular in the visually impaired people with the special mode of to read the screen out for those in need. The application has been tested by both people with normal eye sight and with those with visually impaired individual. As a prototype the application has been shown to be able to navigate successfully on an example floor of a certain building. |
