Abstract

A navigation system is designed to assist users in navigating outdoors or indoors. Passenger transport systems because the system use auxiliary work for navigation, in user guidance and route planning effort for navigation and user planning. There are many libraries to visit indoor environments in malls, museums, airports and airports. Indoors as orientation easier for people than outdoors, support systems for indoor need are implemented for this. Therefore, when developing an indoor navigation system, different aspects have to be considered, such as positioning, route presentation and understanding the elements presented, among other characteristics. An indoor navigation system should have a position finding functionality, when it does not allow this functionality it is said to be non-adaptive. However, considering the existing limitations to generate an ideal system, this study presents which elements among resources and tools can be used in a non-adaptive system, aiming to facilitate navigation and demand less attention from the user. Thus, in this article, the main representation resources for indoor environments, a command selection system, a reference environment and the tracing of routes, a system for configuring rotations and voice routes are elaborated. Therefore, it is expected to build a theoretical framework on aspects that improve browser orientation and cognitive mapping in indoor environments.
