A tool for the efficient construction of mobile visitor information systems

چکیده
Mobile Visitor Information Systems Mobile visitor information systems for fairs, exhibitions, conferences, shopping malls, and similar events, provide the user with a powerful means for organizing his visit and for orientating himself within the event’s surroundings. The Fraunhofer IGD Rostock has developed a rather successful line in such systems, probably the most well known ones being »Mobis« [1] and »eGuide«[2], These systems have been used for such events as IAA’99, CeBIT2000, EXPO2000, drupa 2000, medica 2000, ispo2001, ifa2001, and cpd2002. For the efficient creation of these systems, IGD has built the XyberScout platform, which is coming in regular use at IGD Rostock for building mobile visitor guides. At CeBIT’2002, the platform itself will be presented to the public.

XyberScout: A Platform for the Efficient Construction of Mobile Location Aware Information Systems
For many years mobile visitor information systems for museums or exhibitions are a topic of research. Research prototypes aim to provide the user with powerful means for organizing his visit and for navigation within the event’s surroundings. But today, in real-world applications, we mostly find rather simple tools – mobile guides for fairs, conferences and similar events. In the area of these ...
متن کاملAre Autonomous Mobile Robots Able to Take Over Construction? A Review
Although construction has been known as a highly complex application field for autonomous robotic systems, recent advances in this field offer great hope for using robotic capabilities to develop automated construction. Today, space research agencies seek to build infrastructures without human intervention, and construction companies look to robots with the potential to improve construction qua...

The online observation of a construction site and processes bears significant advantage to all business sector. BIM is the combination of a 3D model of the project and a project-planning program which improves the project planning model by up to 6D (Adding Time, Cost and Material Information dimensions to the model). RFID technology is an appropriate information synchronization tool between the...
متن کاملCooperative Control of Mobile Robots in Creating a Runway Platform for Quadrotor Landing
Multi-agent systems are systems in which several agents accomplish a mission in a cooperative manner. In this paper, a novel idea for the construction of a movable runway platform based on multi-agent systems is presented. It is assumed that an aerial agent (quadrotor) decides to make an emergency landing due to reasons such as a decrease in energy level or technical failure, while there is no ...
متن کاملAn Enhanced MSS-based checkpointing Scheme for Mobile Computing Environment
Mobile computing systems are made up of different components among which Mobile Support Stations (MSSs) play a key role. This paper proposes an efficient MSS-based non-blocking coordinated checkpointing scheme for mobile computing environment. In the scheme suggested nearly all aspects of checkpointing and their related overheads are forwarded to the MSSs and as a result the workload of Mobile ...
