行動裝置上無室內定位之兒童尋書定位系統

A Children Book Locating without Indoor Positioning Using Mobile Devices

目前的圖書館書籍檢索方法雖能提供讀者運用索書號在逐一書櫃中尋找到書籍，但在查詢和檢索流程上卻是相當費時，特別是在進行跨領域學習或兒童尋書時，將無法快速尋找到讀者想要閱讀的書籍。由於提供導覽服務須具備室內定位技術以取得讀者位置資訊，再依據讀者位置提供路線導引。然而，在圖書館中因為建築物的遮蔽，將導致無法取得衛星訊號，故全球定位系統無法適用於圖書館室內定位。本論文提出使用Aurasma擴增實境技術、智慧型手機、不需要室內定位之兒童尋書定位系統，以吸引兒童使用公共圖書館。控制組為了瞭解無尋書定位系統的尋書效率，製作尋書手冊供受測者使用。另一方面，為了和使用室內定位之尋書定位裝置比較，導入公共圖書館使用的Smart Watch。再者，使用實驗法比對控制組與實驗組的平均尋書定位時間與平均尋書定位正確率。實驗結果顯示，本系統在平均尋書定位正確率皆優於控制組與Smart Watch組，Smart Watch組也優於控制組。在平均尋書定位時間，本系統和Smart Watch組皆優於控制組，和Smart Watch組比較則無顯著的差異。最後，討論本系統的可行性並提出建議與未來研究方向。

Currently library book retrieval methods can provide the call numbers to the users. Then, the users can employ those numbers to access the books on the related shelves sequentially. However, the time of querying and retrieval flow is very long. Especially, when users conduct the cross field learning or children users search books, the desire books can not be accessed efficiently. As to the library guide service, the positioning technology is necessary in order to obtain the positions of users in the library and then by using the positions the guide service can provide the related route guides. Nevertheless, as the library is a close space so as not to be able to access the signals of satellites. Thus, the global positioning system can not be utilized in the libraries. In order to tackle this issue and attract the children to utilize the library, this paper proposes a Children book locating system without indoor positioning using “Aurasma” augmented reality tool and smart phones, respectively. To understand the performance of manual book locating, the control group employs the book locating manual to the locate the related books. Moreover, to compare the performance with the book locating system using indoor positioning, the smart watches are introduced from the public library. Both the average locating accuracy and the average locating time are used to evaluate the performance among the control group, the smart watch group and the proposed system group. Furthermore, the experimental results show that the average book locating accuracy of the proposed system group is superior to that of both the control group and the smart watch group. The smart watch group is superior to the control group as well. On the other hand, as to the average book locating time, the performances of both the proposed system and smart watch group are superior to that of the control group. However, there is no significant difference between the proposed system and smart watch group. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed system is discussed and furtherly some suggestion and future works are presented.
