Abstract:

This paper demonstrates a 3D navigation system of urban indoor space guidance. One critical problem of existing guidance systems for the indoor space is that they
mostly deal with twodimensional maps. Moreover, current systems are also not very intuitionist and thus bring troubles in understanding. In this paper, a novel indoor space
navigation system is put forward, which can provide helpful information to guide people to travel in the underground intelligently and conveniently. Different from most previous
systems, it adopts virtual reality simulation technology that cooperates with dynamic display technology, computing technology and communication networks. Through this approach,
users can find and be guided to their destination quickly. The results of simulation show this navigation system is not only feasible but also has effective performance.
