We present a smart audio guide that adapts itself to the environment the user is navigating into. The system builds automatically a point of interest database exploiting Wikipedia and Google APIs as source. We rely on a computer vision system, to overcome the likely sensor limitations, and determine with high accuracy if the user is facing a certain landmark or if he is not facing any. Thanks to this the guide presents audio description at the most appropriate moment without any user intervention, using text-to-speech augmenting the experience.

Abstract

We present a smart audio guide that adapts itself to the environment the user is navigating into. The system builds automatically a point of interest database exploiting Wikipedia and Google APIs as source. We rely on a computer vision system, to overcome the likely sensor limitations, and determine with high accuracy if the user is facing a certain landmark or if he is not facing any. Thanks to this the guide presents audio description at the most appropriate moment without any user intervention, using text-to-speech augmenting the experience.
