Abstract:
The objective of this project is to navigate a user from their approximated location to
a point in an indoor environment. This user location is estimated using the Bluetooth
Low Energy (BLE) reference beacons. The indoor environment of a mart is modelled
as a map using a 3d modelling software. A user is provided with an intuitive user
interface which they can use interact with the application and to select a point to
navigate to. An informed search algorithm is applied to the graph which internally
represents the environment as a set of nodes. The algorithm finds the shortest path to
the destination which is then rendered to the application interlace. This aids a user’s
shopping experience where they can seamlessly navigate to their desired products
