Research on semantics used in GPS based mobile phone applications for blind pedestrian navigation in an outdoor environment

The research is based on studies on semantics used in GPS guided mobile navigation applications in particular for blind pedestrians. The scope is in information of words or narrative use in guiding them and how to improve the effectiveness in the semantics via machines learning. These are tested in...
