Objective: Designing a handheld campus navigator module is designed for a specific campus to move around easily without any external help. Methods: The geographical position of the building is obtained based on the data received using GPS device and with these data, a location tracking algorithm is framed. Therefore, user will be provided with the location based information of each building in a particular campus to move from one pin-point interest to another. Analysis: Now-a-days mobile applications are used for navigation purpose. But in many places like educational institutions, industries etc., mobile phones are not allowed inside the campus.so a handheld module are designed to navigate inside a particular campus. This paper deals with the design of campus navigator for a college campus. Improvement: Feasibility of using a GPS based handheld guide, its benefits and drawbacks for a campus drive is clearly explained in this paper.
