text: Today, we are often surrounded by devices with one or more microphones, such
as smartphones, laptops, and wireless microphones. If they are part of an acoustic
sensor network, their distribution in the environment can be beneficially exploited
for various speech processing tasks. However, applications like speaker localization,
speaker tracking, and speech enhancement by beamforming avail themselves of the
geometrical configuration of the sensors. Therefore, acoustic microphone geometry
calibration has recently become a very active field of research. This article
provides an application-oriented, comprehensive survey of existing methods for
microphone position self-calibration, which will be categorized by the measurements
they use and the scenarios they can calibrate. Selected methods will be evaluated
comparatively with real-world recordings.

text: In this paper we present a system for indoor navigation based on received
signal strength index information of Wireless-LAN access points and relative position
estimates. The relative position information is gathered from inertial smartphone
sensors using a step detection and an orientation estimate. Our map data is hosted
on a server employing a map renderer and a SQL database. The database includes
a complete multilevel office building, within which the user can navigate. During
navigation, the client retrieves the position estimate from the server, together
with the corresponding map tiles to visualize the user's position on the smartphone
display.
