Abstract
TaleBlazer is a platform that allows for the design and play of iOS and Android location-based augmented reality games. Until recently, TaleBlazer games could only be played outdoors. Indoor positioning is an active area of research. This thesis will explore and evaluate a variety of more sophisticated alternatives to an existing, simple indoor positioning scheme for TaleBlazer. None of the explored indoor positioning techniques were satisfactory as a replacement scheme. In lieu of completely replacing the existing scheme, a number of improvements were made to TaleBlazer's indoor positioning.
