In this paper, a novel tour-guiding system is introduced, based on our space-identifying ubiquitous infrastructure, where positioning devices are deployed ubiquitously to identify the place of users. In this infrastructure, we can flexibly construct information service related to the places of interest in the city by modeling the space of the real world as a set of relations among the discrete places, and attaching space-identifying devices to them. Our developed tour-guiding system introduces many art works in a large commercial complex in Japan. Based on the benefit of the infrastructure, this system can provide detailed navigation service as well as art introduction service in both indoor and outdoor environments, and can guide the users to reach their interested art works. Currently, this system is already used in practice for a commercial service. In this paper, the design of this system is described and its navigation capability is verified through a user test in the real environment to discuss the effectiveness of our approach.
