Abstract :
In this paper, we present the technical details and the challenges we faced during the development and evaluation phases of our wearable indoor guiding system which consists of a virtual personal assistant guiding the user to his/her desired destination. The main issues that will be discussed can be classified in three categories: context detection, real-time 3D rendering and user interaction.
