Abstract

In recent years, users of walking navigation services is increasing with the spread of smart phones, such as iPhone and Android. Walking navigation utilizes GPS function in a smart phone to find out current position of a user. When using route navigation, users would like to arrive at their destination correctly. However, in many cases, this is not the only purpose that they would like to accomplish. They also would like to arrive at the destination in time. In this research, we propose a system called “StepNavi” that allows a user to know current walking speed is over paced or under paced.
