Abstract

Disclosed are an apparatus for estimating a pedestrian position based on pedestrian motion recognition, and a method therefor. The method for estimating the pedestrian position based on pedestrian motion recognition includes recognizing a specific motion of a plurality of motions of the pedestrian, performing a unique pedestrian dead-reckoning (PDR) technique corresponding to the recognized specific motion among unique PDR techniques for each of the plurality of motions of the pedestrian, and estimating the pedestrian's position by the performed unique PDR technique.
