Abstract

Present project aims to develop a navigator mobile application for blind people, in such a way that it is not just a routing path guide; it will describe your current environment in a configurable radio. It will be integrated in a social network that allows adding new elements into the environment that will be shared by all the users. And it will also work inside building by estimating the current position using step counter, compass, altimeter, etc.
