| Research Abstract |
Mobile communication services rapidly grow up due to mobile communication network development and downsized mobile devices. However such kinds of services are available only for outdoor environments, since it is difficult to trace positions in indoor environments. Moreover there exist few research works to automatically model indoor environments. In this research, we propose a method to automatically model indoor environments, making use of PCB wiring techniques. Based on this modeling, we propose an indoor pedestrian navigation system including route searching and route guidance. We have shown the effectiveness of our proposed systems through practical experiments.
