Abstract

This paper presents a novel application called LOVINA for RFID computing that integrates RFID positioning technology and virtual reality. Using a museum as an example, we develop a 3D virtual navigation system that supports indoor RFID localisation. If a user is carrying a notebook or mobile device while walking through an exhibition room, the system can update the user|s position accurately. This information can be used to guide users as they near particular historical objects; for example, the system can trigger special information that alerts users and helps them experience real and virtual historical relics, buildings, and incidents more completely.
