The aim of the project is to develop an application on the Android to smart phone to locate a car in the parking lot in order to overcome the problems of absorption absence in certain places. Such as underground parking which does not have an access to GPS and the Internet cannot be used there.
The solution is by DEAD RECKONING that uses an acceleration sensor to calculate the distance from the starting point so that it will be possible to know how far we have traveled at any given moment and using other sensors to calculate the angle we went through, so that the application points to the position of the vehicle using an arrow.
There is also a hardware problem so that the sensors are not perfect and give a small bias even when the Smartphone is stable without any movement. Thus, we used Kalman algorithm to reduce noise and to filter them.
