Abstract :
This paper describes the personal location method in image sequences using a wearable computer for AR-based indoor navigation system which allows the user to navigate an unfamiliar and unknown place in an indoor environment. For identifying personal location in image sequences, the system uses a color histogram matching method. Personal locations recognized by the proposed method in real-time. The results are overplayed on the user´s view through AR technique. The ideas presented in this system are applicable to a navigation system.
