A Pedestrian Navigation System for Car Locating
The data navigation systems became more and more present in current life. They can be divided in fixed (Internet based on desktops) and mobile. The mobile navigation systems make use of the tremendous development of smart mobile devices, such as PDAs, mobile phones or dedicated devices. They receive updated data through wireless Internet, through GPS and through specialized sensors. Car navigation systems are the most known implementation of data navigation systems. Pedestrian navigation systems (PNSs) were less focused. Although they have to respond to the same main requirement as car navigation systems, i.e. to guide a user from a starting point to a destination point, they have also different constraints. This paper presents a PNS for finding a car. It is intended to be mounted in the car’s key and to guide the user from its starting point, which is in a delimited area around the car, to his car.
