Abstract: This paper details the development of an indoor navigation system on a Smartphone. Research of previous work in the field preceded the development of a new approach that uses data from the device’s compass, adapter, and wireless accelerometer to determine user position. Finger printing technique is used to locate the current position. Indoor navigation systems can be used in college campuses, malls, hospitals and museums. A particular user can reach to its destination by using Indoor navigation system. Indoor navigation system is convenient to use and is very useful technology. There’s a possible way to determine in indoor navigation that is by using signal strengths from WiFi routers. Thus by recording this signal strength at certain position, fingerprint can be created. They are very unique in the sense that it is possible to distinguish positions. By research we have discover that how to make use of fingerprints in smartphone based indoor navigation system, which uses fingerprints as a positioning technique. Improvements can be further suggested regarding the translation of the fingerprint location to absolute positions based on the coordinates using the extensions of the smart navigation system and by distinguishing some user properties like navigating through areas which are restricted, thus navigation for disabled users, or at the time of arrival estimations.
