Using a combination of Vision Ai and SLAM technologies, we have prototyped an indoor navigation solution allowing travel passengers to use their phones to navigate a building.
About
4 Roads is a multidisciplinary team of business strategists, designers, and developers who use technology to bring businesses and audiences closer.
Built around an ethos of empowering clients and their customers, an approach we describe as "Intelligent Self Service", our deep understanding of the digital landscape allows us to leverage established and emerging technologies to help businesses create seamless customer experiences. This includes using Online Communities, Virtual Event solutions, Augmented Reality, AI, and Web & Mobile App development.
We love technology and live digital. Together we’re a team that creates honest, compelling and extraordinary digital solutions. We’re experimental and curious by nature - it’s how we uniquely solve complex digital problems.
Our deep understanding of the digital landscape builds on this and allows us to play around with emerging technologies and find new uses without the usual constraints.
It’s how we do things that make us different and how we do things that make a difference. We don’t just look for the best solution for us but find the best solution for our clients and their customers.
Key Benefits
Our tested prototype solution allows a public member to navigate internally using a web interface or in a mobile application. During navigation, the user can hold their phone in a natural position and receive visual, audible, and haptic feedback for direction instructions and hazard avoidance.
The user can raise the phone to enable vision AI to help with dynamic hazard avoidance and on-screen AR overlay directing to points of interest.
If this system was tied into a booking reference, it could provide live navigation through the airport to the correct gate, offer accurate timescales to boarding, and allow virtual queuing at the gate, maximising the time flyers spend in retail.
Applications
Our target market is all flyers. Certain features have been designed to provide ease of navigation for the visually impaired.
