Design and implementation a tracking system under indoor environment

الملخص EN

A Location based service (LBS) field is of increasing interest towards healthcare facilities of smart environments and applications such as tracking, positioning, mobile computing, etc., in Information Technology (IT) world.

Hospital (track a special patient); Museum (track a tourist); School (track a student); Kindergarten (track a kids), are examples of these applications.

In an Indoor environment has several systems based on various technologies such as infrared radio (IR) signal are emerging particularly; the wireless local-area network (WLAN) (IEEE 802.11b) radio-signal-based positioning system.

Consequently, we can determine or track users via the wireless portable device (e.g.

laptop, PDA) on a map for each floor in university building.

This research illustrates a tracking system under indoor environment at IT University of Copenhagen that designed and implemented by using a simple, flexible, and intelligent application tool (Flash application) with Action Script programming language.

Test and results are also reported.
