Using Photographed Evacuation Plans to Support MEMS IMU Navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present various procedures to support a ZUPT-based MEMS IMU navigation application by available external building models and photographs of evacuation plans. In detail, these are approaches for horizontal alignment of the track using the external building shell, for height correction by stair and elevator detection, for the extraction of the initial position and direction using the photographed plan and for the derivation of coarse indoor models from the plan. Keywords—IMU; Navigation; Modeling; Evacuation Plan

Indoor Navigation and Modeling Using Photographed Evacuation Plans and Mems Imu
In this paper, we present an approach for the modeling of building interiors by a user who is equipped with a navigation system, which integrates MEMS IMU data processing with automatic interpretation of photos of evacuation plans. Such emergency plans for the evacuation of buildings are compulsory for public buildings in a number of countries. They consist of an approximate floor plan, the cur...
متن کاملVersatile Geo-referenced Maps for Indoor Navigation of Pedestrians
We propose a system enabling users to capture the data needed to construct maps of building interiors, complemented by a smartphone-based pedestrian navigation application utilizing these maps. For this purpose, the user captures photographs of evacuation plans which are processed by the system using a suitable image processing pipeline. As a result, a coarse floor map is available, consisting ...
متن کاملMEMS IMU Error Mitigation Using Rotation Modulation Technique
Micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) inertial measurement unit (IMU) outputs are corrupted by significant sensor errors. The navigation errors of a MEMS-based inertial navigation system will therefore accumulate very quickly over time. This requires aiding from other sensors such as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). However, it will still remain a significant challenge in the prese...
متن کاملGPS/INS Integration for Vehicle Navigation based on INS Error Analysis in Kalman Filtering
The Global Positioning System (GPS) and an Inertial Navigation System (INS) are two basic navigation systems. Due to their complementary characters in many aspects, a GPS/INS integrated navigation system has been a hot research topic in the recent decade. The Micro Electrical Mechanical Sensors (MEMS) successfully solved the problems of price, size and weight with the traditional INS. Therefore...
متن کاملTest Results of a Gps/inertial Navigation System Using a Low Cost Mems Imu
This paper describes the design, operation, and test results of a miniature, low cost integrated GPS/inertial navigation system that uses commercial off-the-shelf Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) accelerometers and gyroscopes. The MEMS inertial measurement unit (IMU) is packaged in a small size and provides the raw IMU data through a serial interface to a processor board where the inertia...
