Structured Visual Markers for Indoor Pathfinding
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a mobile augmented reality (AR) system to guide a user through an unfamiliar building to a destination room. The system presents a world-registered wire frame model of the building labeled with directional information in a see-through heads-up display, and a three-dimensional world-in-miniature (WIM) map on a wrist-worn pad that also acts as an input device. Tracking is done using a combination of wall-mounted ARToolkit markers observed by a head-mounted camera, and an inertial tracker. To allow coverage of arbitrarily large areas with a limited set of markers, a structured marker re-use scheme based on graph coloring has been developed.

Using a linear octree to identify empty space in indoor point clouds for 3D pathfinding
Indoor pathfinding and routing need fast ways to define connected navigable space, which represents usable paths. This is important because the interior space in buildings changes and often does not follow the architectural design. A workflow is presented that uses a linear octree to segment the space contained in an indoor point cloud, and subsequently derives the structured and connected empt...
متن کاملDesign, Implementation and Evaluation of an Indoor Navigation System for Visually Impaired People
Indoor navigation is a challenging task for visually impaired people. Although there are guidance systems available for such purposes, they have some drawbacks that hamper their direct application in real-life situations. These systems are either too complex, inaccurate, or require very special conditions (i.e., rare in everyday life) to operate. In this regard, Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology ...
متن کاملA "door-to-door" Path-finding Approach for Indoor Navigation
Indoor navigation is gaining an increasing interest among researchers in many domains. In many cases users need to orient quickly in complex environments, which is not always the target of current routing algorithms. The paper reviews current indoor pathfinding approaches and discusses some of the limitations. In order to support a natural movement in buildings, typically for emergencies, we pu...

During the recent years, the need arises for indoor navigation systems for guidance of a client in natural hazards and fire, due to the fact that human settlements have been complicating. This research paper aims to design and implement a visual indoor navigation web application. The designed system processes CityGML data model automatically and then, extracts semantic, topologic and geometric...
متن کاملUsing Quadtrees for Realtime Pathfinding in Indoor Environments
During the last few years mobile robots got more and more important to solve different tasks in outdoor and indoor environments. To solve these tasks one very essential issue is to get from one point A to another point B as fast as possible. To find the least expensive route to the goal the pathfinding process needs a full state space information about the environment. With this information we ...
