The project concerns a mobile indoor navigation application, called NavApp, for the mobility of pedestrians inside a building. NavApp has been deployed in a real environment, namely the library of the University of Pavia. It supports the staff in picking, storing, moving and inventory operations. Indoor navigation relies on a cloud service that fuses data of magnetic fields, Wi-Fi and beacons, called Indoor Atlas. NavApp has a sufficient positioning precision(2 meters) with the relevant advance of being able of working without any pre-deployed infrastructure, a key point in an ancient library with many million books.展开更多
