Glyph Guide

GlyphGuide is developing technology that enables indoor spatial data to be created, used, and continuously updated by the people who use buildings every day.

GlyphGuide combines smartphone sensing, computer vision, augmented reality, and crowdsourcing to create indoor spatial maps without requiring building floorplans.

As people move through a building, label destinations, and confirm locations, the platform continuously learns and updates pathways, shopping item locations, and building features. Future versions will extend spatial guidance to AI-enabled smart glasses, providing intuitive, hands-free navigation.

By combining human movement, user observations, and crowdsourced contributions, GlyphGuide builds a continuously evolving map of the indoors that can support navigation, accessibility, robotics, digital twins, facility operations, emergency response, and future AI systems that need to understand indoor environments.
