Resumen
This work presents a new system for predicting the movement of people in indoor user environments, based on an advanced Indoor Positioning System (IPS) developed previously by the authors. The mentioned IPS proposes the combination of WiFi Positioning System (WPS) and depth maps provided by RGB-D cameras to improve the efficiency of existing methods, based uniquely on wireless positioning techniques. In this approach, the prediction of movements is carried out by means of a proactive strategy, delivering the next estimated position of the person. This estimation provides a richer location and context information, which is useful for ubiquitous computing purposes. For example, energy consumption can be optimized if lighting or electronic devices are turned on/off by means of the user trajectory prediction. This paper shows how several techniques, applied for the developed IPS, offer different solutions to the indoor prediction problem, and it discusses about which of them gives better results.
