Abstract: It comes as no surprise that the jobs of first responders like police and firemen can be, and often are very perilous. Police teams entering a building to arrest crime suspects, or fire-fighters entering an ablaze building, bring with them serious hazards. For these kinds of situations, some sort of navigation module to keep track of a person’s location at all times would be a solution. However, the fact that these situations occur mostly inside buildings, complicates the picture. This paper presents research done on a foot mounted inertial navigation system using zero velocity updates. These updates are done based on steps detected by a pressure sensor. Current results show that this is a promising technique but there are still problems with magnetic deviation due to metal in the building. Future work consist of adding other sensors such as a barometric pressure sensor for floor height and ultrasonic range finding to perform simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM).
