Abstract | We present an indoor tracking system based on two wearable inertial measurement units for tracking in home and workplace environments. It applies simultaneous localization and mapping with user actions as landmarks, themselves recognized by the wearable sensors. The approach is thus fully wearable and no pre-deployment effort is required. We identify weaknesses of past approaches and address them by introducing heading drift compensation, stance detection adaptation, and ellipse landmarks. Furthermore, we present an environment-independent parameter set that allows for robust tracking in daily-life scenarios. We assess the method on a dataset with five participants in different home and office environments, totaling 8.7h of daily routines and 2500m of travelled distance. This dataset is publicly released. The main outcome is that our algorithm converges 87% of the time to an accurate approximation of the ground truth map (0.52m mean landmark positioning error) in scenarios where previous approaches fail. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
