Abstract
Mobile navigation uses smart mobile devices, such as PDAs, mobile phones or dedicated devices. In order to help the user to navigate, they receive updated data through wireless Internet, GPS, cellular phones and specialized sensors. Car navigation systems are the most known and advanced implementation of data navigation systems. They are embedded in cars or in distinct devices. Pedestrian navigation systems were less approached. This paper presents a PNS for finding a car. It was thought to be included in the car’s key and to guide the user from its starting point, which is in delimited area around the car, to his/her car.
