Glyph Guide
Read full descriptionHide full description
GlyphGuide combines smartphone sensing, computer vision, augmented reality, and crowdsourcing to create indoor spatial maps without requiring building floorplans. As people move through a building, label destinations, and confirm locations, the platform continuously learns and updates pathways, shopping item locations, and building features. Future versions will extend spatial guidance to AI-enabled smart glasses, providing intuitive, hands-free navigation. By combining human movement, user observations, and crowdsourced contributions, GlyphGuide builds a continuously evolving map of the indoors that can support navigation, accessibility, robotics, digital twins, facility operations, emergency response, and future AI systems that need to understand indoor environments.
