Abstract

Indoor GPS navigation is unreliable owing to poor communication with satellites and a lack of detailed maps. The authors discuss technologies that offer accurate indoor location and orientation data, presenting their system for indoor navigation, which runs on a smartphone. The Web extra at http://youtu.be/cfOSNjyD15A illustrates the prototypal system. Another Web extra, http://youtu.be/6DtHkihkiO4, provides a more detailed introduction about the topics and system discussed.
