| Abstract | The location detection is intensively investigated topic as it enables environment-man interaction, specially for the ambient intelligence applications (e.g. giving the user hints or warnings according to his location). In our work, which is motivated by the potential of implementing our prototype by MEMS technology, we got inspiration from the polarization of vision, which is found in some insects for location detection. The polarization vision in some insects enables them to navigate by the so-called polar compass, which is based on the polarization pattern of the sky. In our work, first we investigate a polar compass, then use this polar compass to determine the location, where more than one source is available by measuring the angles of all of the sources. Our experimental result proves the feasibility of our low cost, compact and integratable prototype to measure the angular displacement. |

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.
