Introduction
• iDOCENT – (indoor Digital Orientation Communication and
Navigation Technology)
• A system to solve the problem of indoor guided navigation
• Targets visually impaired users– Working with MSU RCPD– Sponsored by Marathon

Background
• iDOCENT Phase 1 – Used Wi-Fi triangulation
• Phase 2 implements– Audio signal– Microphone modules
• Advantages of Phase 2– Smartphone connection to internet– Not dependent on Wi-Fi

Objectives
• Ten foot accuracy
• User friendly
• Audio feedback
• Minimal infrastructure

System Setup
![Page 6: Team 2 iDOCENT : Phase 2](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081604/56816859550346895dde8b0d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
System Protocol
1. The smartphone contacts the server.
2. Server sends online confirmation.
3. Smartphone emits audio signal.
4. Receiving mics relay a message to the server.
5. Server analyzes the data, sends the user his position.

How does it calculate position?• The server uses the first two timestamps for calculations.
– If two are not given, only one is considered.
– Position of microphones is known
– Using difference in timestamps and the speed of sound, position of the user relative to each mic can be calculated.

System Design
• Minimizes transmission delay– No timestamp is collected from the cellphone– Microphones are connected through Ethernet
• Timestamps will be on server side– Ensures clock synchronization
• Process repeats to guide the user accurately
