Development of indoor navigation software for intelligent wheelchair

摘要

Nowadays, location based applications increasingly used in many areas. Although outdoor navigation software applications are mature and widely used, improvements are required for indoor navigation. The applications such as guidance of disabled people, applications for security, visitor tracking, address mapping, the organization of services, automatic tourist guidance etc. are also needed for indoor environments. In this study, location-based navigation software has been developed for indoor environment. New plug-ins are added to navigation software, so that it can be used in Intelligent Wheelchair (ATEKS) systems, too. Thus, the software is specialized for autonomous robot application. The software is developed on Android platform.
