Abstract

The objective of this thesis is to study people’s navigation flow throughout architectural spaces and to provide a further observation of how user’s notions and senses tend to guide their spontaneous movement within a space. This study explores the use of “smart”, self-personalized digital signage and wayfinding system using existing technologies (AGPS, RFID, Face Detection, QR codes, and Augmented Reality) to locate and navigate users through space to their intended destination without the interference of other misleading information. Specifically, the implementation focuses on assisting in travelers’ navigation to their required destination in international airports.
