At the CES trade show in Las Vegas, Casio demonstrated last week a modified version of its newly announced EXILIM EX-FH100 compact camera capable of providing outdoor and indoor positioning.

Fitted with a GPS and inertial sensors, the camera prototype is able to locate a picture taken outdoor and indoor. The indoor location is calculated with dead reckoning algorithms: the latest known position of the GPS, plus movements and directions based on inertial sensors measurements.

In addition the camera has embedded digital maps and points of interest. Pictures in the camera can be displayed and searched via the map interface. The map also shows the distance to the nearest POIs; pedometer and calorie consumption can be also displayed.
