This paper presents a solution for vision impaired people to navigate through an unfamiliar indoor environment with the help of their smart phone. Although there are some solutions which address this scenario, they do have some problems such as lack of accuracy and inability to apply for real-life situations. So, the solution presented here avoids those drawbacks and apply more realistic and improved ways of navigating techniques. This prototype demonstrates how to localize and get map details as required to navigate indoor buildings with voice support. The end result of this research is to increase the accuracy and the easiness of this system compared to the existing supportive systems.
