Abstract
We present a platform and a set of position-adaptive basic services for indoor ambient intelligence environments. This suite of TM-based services implement various instances of implicit interaction based on the user’s position, mediated by a handheld personal device. An indoor navigation system has been implemented as a prototype application for a structured location-management infrastructure that maintains information about all fixed, movable and mobile features of the ambient environment, according to complementary abstract models of this space. Location and navigation information is presented to the user’s handheld device as a fully scalable, dynamic SVG scene. 802.11 fingerprinting is used as a basis for location-estimation at an inter-room scale, while RFID is used for close-range (intra-room) position detection.
