Abstract: The embodiments herein provide a method and system for an augmented reality based indoor navigation. The system creates an augmented reality (AR) based fingerprinting to perform the dynamic routing. A floor wise plan of the building is uploaded. The floor plan is converted to a floor plan graph. Then cloud anchors are created and placed across the floor. An anchor is a fixed position and orientation in the real world as recognized by any Augmented Reality (AR) device. Each time an anchor is placed, its position information is fingerprinted on the floorplan graph and that fingerprinting is saved in the database. When user scans for nearest QR code to identify their current position, the user location is identified and the planogram details, fingerprinting and pre-processed floorplan matrix are obtained from database. When user selects his destination, dynamic routing is performed to obtain shortest/optimized path viewed through augmented reality fingerprinting.
