Abstract

The positioning of users using their smartphones represents interesting service for various areas. Position of users can represent valuable information for various service providers. In industry 4.0 smart devices such as smartphone or tablet can help users to react faster in case of emergency. It can help to reduce reaction times for service workers and improve users’ orientation in the environment, or delegate work to the nearest available employee. In previous work we have described modular positioning system that is able to automatically select optimal positioning module based on available radio signals. In this paper we will focus on estimation of crossing between environments e.g. indoor and outdoor. The proposed algorithm is crucial for implementation of seamless positioning. Since both environments have specific demands not only on positioning solutions but also on maps and navigation algorithms. The proposed algorithm does not require deployment of new infrastructure and can be used on widely available smartphones. The algorithm was tested in real conditions by different users and using various smartphone devices to prove its performance under various conditions.
