Abstract In this article, we propose and evaluate a Zoo Walk
Navigation System consistings of the Animal Contents Registering and Editing
Web Management System and the Animal Contents Browsing and Acquiring
Smartphone Application. The Animal Contents Registering and Editing Web
Management System for zoo staff enables to register/edit various animal
contents. Thereby, this web management system provides real-time and flesh
zoo information to the Animal Contents Browsing and Acquiring Smartphone
Application. On the other hand, the Animal Contents Browsing and Acquiring
Smartphone Application for zoo visitors enables to browse various animal
contents which zoo staff registered through the Animal Contents Registering
and Editing Web Management System. The Animal Contents Browsing and Acquiring
Smartphone Application has the animal guide browsing function, the animal
quiz function, the beacon notification browsing function, the zoo map
navigating function, and the AR camera function. Zoo visitors can enjoy a zoo
park using this smartphone application. This system is the new type
navigation system which zoo staff can renew contents to avoid contents
obsolescence. And, this system always provides new information to zoo
visitors in real time by the beacon notification function. Keywords: Zoological Garden, Position Information Measuring System,
