Abstract
Provided are an indoor positioning system and method based on geomagnetic signals in combination with computer vision, including: a computer vision positioning module for acquiring a spatial image of a surrounding environment to create computer vision coordinates; a geomagnetic signal positioning module for detecting trajectories of the geomagnetic signals for creating geomagnetic signal coordinates; a map generating module including a database for storing the created computer vision coordinates and the created geomagnetic signal coordinates, and an inertial measurement unit for detecting a current position and a traveling trajectory, to generate a computer vision map and a geomagnetic data map; and a weighting module for calculating a computer vision weight and a geomagnetic signal weight based on the created computer vision coordinates and the created geomagnetic signal coordinates, and inputting the computer vision weight and the geomagnetic signal weight in a weight equation to estimate a present location.
