Abstract
Today, mobile phones are equipped with at least half a dozen sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity, and ambient light sensor. Mobile phone is increasingly being used to address various challenges on part of information dissemination, navigation, guidance, and short-range device-to-device communication. With the availability of sensors, there is a growing focus on the development of localization and map** algorithms using mobile. In this paper, we focus on the simultaneous localization and map** algorithm (SLAM) for visually impaired people. We have conducted an initial study on a visually impaired person for outdoor navigation in our University campus.
