+**__Role:__** I was the Project Manager throughout the design and implementation phase of CampNav, together with Phillip I additionally had a hand in working on the indoor positioning algorithm of the project. The project manager’s duty was to make sure the project got completed within the specified deadlines as well complete a lot of the clerical tasks along the way. Throughout the project I would be making sure that reports got written and submitted on time to both Professor Gunho and Professor Ebrahim. In doing so I had to be the person to book meetings, answer all issues which appeared along the way as well figure out ways to integrate individual systems. Some of the technical tasks for the project I performed along the way will be outlined below:

 **__Title:__** Programmer \\
-**__Role:__** Programming in the Android environment, Implementation of the GUI\\
+**__Role:__** Phillip together with Maninder were the main Android API programmers in CampNav. They were set to focus on the two different segments of the application. The indoor positioning and was Phillip’s main focus while the Augmented Reality was Maninder’s main focus. In order to meet the requirements of our Supervisor, both of these applications were to be created in unison.

-Phillip will act as one of the two main programmers throughout the implementation of this project. In doing so Phillip will be partly in charge of making the Android app usable and capable of performing the objectives set out for the scope of this project.\\
+**__Indoor Algorithm Programming:__**
+Phil was the primary programmer of the Indoor Positioning. He took lead when it came to all things Android programming especially when implementing the Google Maps API. Phillip worked together with Alec in improving the performance of the indoor positioning algorithm. The testing and validation of the Indoor Positioning Algorithm was a two man job and required vast amounts of different statistical analysis and testing to come with the best quality of Positioning possible.
+**__WiFi Surveying Software:__**
+Phil in addition to the main Indoor Algorithm Programming designed and implemented the system of which the fingerprints were surveyed. His software which was outlined in the report read the Wi-Fi information for a set period of time and saved it into a text file which could later be interpolated with systems such as Matlab or Java for pre-processing.
+**__Implemented Pre-Processing Matlab codes:__**
+Phil wrote Matlab code which was capable of taking the raw “WiFi Surveying Software Outputs” and pre-processing them such as averaging out the signal strengths, and writing them into a sparse matrix style data base. This was done in order to reduce runtime calculations. In addition this software greatly improved the CampNav systems load time when it was activated.
+**__Took part in the Wi-Fi Surveying of both Lassonde A and Vari Hall:__**
+Phillip assisted in scanning the wifi signal data of these two areas. In Vari Hall the original grid had a resolution of just 1m. This created a situation in which the group spent about 3 days measuring the test area’s wifi-fingerprints.

+**__Achieved Results__**\\
+\\
+CampNav's indoor positioning system is capable of positional accuracy with a resolution of approximately **5m** however it is subject to more performance enhancements. This custom made algorithm analyzes the signal residuals to the fingerprint database in order to display the results to the user. These results are then taken and overlaid onto Google Maps using the grid points proper UTM coordinates.
+{{:projects:g8:accuracy2.png|Accuracy Assessment}}
+   With this graph the tile distances represent moving one fingerprint over or equivalent to 3.65m
+CampNav currently has an augmented reality service which has access to Google Places, in order to show any Google Place with a desired upon distance from the user including Azimuthal directions. This AR functionality is able to show the locations of Google Places on top of the live feed rear-facing camera.
