A low-cost indoor and outdoor terrestrial autonomous navigation model
This addresses navigation challenges for visually impaired individuals, but appears incremental as it builds on existing technologies.
The paper tackles the problem of designing a low-cost autonomous navigation system for both indoor and outdoor environments, resulting in a method applied to assist blindfolded people.
In this paper, a method for low-cost system design oriented to indoor and outdoor autonomous navigation is illustrated. In order to provide a motivation for the solution here presented, a brief discussion of the typical drawbacks of state-of-the-art technologies is reported. Finally, an application of such a method for the design of a navigation system for blindfolded people is shown.
