Abstract
Pedestrian Navigation requires effective
communication between the mobile device and the user. The
Mobile device should be able to give feedback to the user
ensuring there is minimum input and attention of the user
required. Mobile interaction for navigation has mostly been
through the use of visual interfaces with maps and annotations.
This paper describes a Multi-modal, haptic interface witb the
visual interface of an OpenStreetMap on a mobile platform. The
Wiimote is used as the haptic tool which will vibrate based on the
navigation path to be taken by the user wit signals from the
mobile application via a wireless connection using bluetooth.
