Abstract

This paper introduces the idea of Indoor Navigation using Augmented Reality. With the increase in building complex structures, people of different age may find it difficult to navigate within such structures. It is often difficult to find your way to the destination you are looking for. This paper provides a solution for this trouble using available and accessible resources. Using this application, a shop within a shopping mall, a specific room in a hotel, a department building in a vast engineering college etc., can be easily located and also, the user is provided with reasonably accurate visual assistance through their smartphone to reach his/her preferred location. The proposed system is inspired by augmented reality and uses software development kits such as Vuforia and Unity to develop an application. 2-D Visual markers are the fundamental elements used in this system. Multiple visual markers are placed within the complex building structure and on scanning these visual markers using the application, users are led to their destination. The application allows the user to choose their preferred destination before they start navigation and also permits them to change their destination in between. Users are provided assistance using arrows pointing to the correct direction. This application is made in such a way that users of all age can use it and ensures a quality of life for all
