Abstract(in English) In this paper, we propose a method of personal positioning that uses images taken from a wearable camera and data from self-contained sensors attached to the user through Kalman filter as a data fusion mechanism. The proposed method estimates the user's position and direction by image registration between the images and a set of images captured at various points of environment beforehand as a database. It updates the estimation of the user's position and direction with pedestrian dead-reckoning by detecting unit cycle of walking behavior of the user and by estimating the heading direction of the body with the self-contained sensors.
