Navigation systems are becoing standard in-vehicle equipment. In the future these technologies will take place in new systems called Intelligent Integrated Road Safety Systems. Reaching this high level of integration and these requirements needs more preci ...
Navigation is usually associated with marine and aviation domains. Except for some lighthouses for orientation or landmarks near the coast, navigation instruments are essential because routes are virtual. Therefore, current position of ships and aircrafts ...
A displacement of a pedestrian is determined from his or her accelerations by detecting accelerations which is substantially non vertical, determining a characteristic feature in the detected accelerations correlated with a step frequency, determining the ...
In this paper a hierarchical multi-resolution approach allowing for high precision and distinctiveness is presented. The method combines topological and metric paradigm. The metric approach, based on the Kalman Filter, uses a new concept to avoid the probl ...
This research has been sponsored by the Centre Suisse d'Electronique et de Microtechnique (CSEM) in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. It introduces a system and the algorithms for Pedestrian Navigation using a combination of sensors. The main objective is to localis ...
This article discusses the problem of GPS integration with dead-reckoning sensors for land vehicle navigation applications. The discussion follows the results of the development and implementation of navigation systems for management of fleets, one of them ...
When satellite are available, the localisation of a pedestrian is fairly straightforward. However in cities or indoors, dead reckoning systems are necessary to determine the user's position. Our current research focuses on the development of algorithms and ...
This paper presents an application where an integrated GPS/IMU system is used for land survey (mounted on a van), providing a significant improvement on the efficiency of the road status monitoring process. Being initially developed for aircraft navigation ...
Many airborne applications, such as altimetry or photogrammetry without ground control points, strongly rely on the precise evaluation of the aircraft’s attitude. This paper presents an approach to the attitude determination problem, where a system combini ...
The paper describes an animation approach where synthetic vision is used for navigation by a digital actor. The vision is the only channel of information between the actor and its environment and offers a universal approach to pass the necessary informatio ...
