How Sydney-based startup BindiMaps is helping people navigate the great indoors

Navigating the outside world on foot has never been a completely easy feat, but getting lost in complex and unfamiliar indoor spaces like hospitals, multi-level office buildings, universities and shopping centres, or even events like the Australian Open, especially when you have someplace you need to be, can make for an equally frustrating experience and it happens to many people on a daily basis.

Sydney-based inclusive wayfinding mobile app BindiMaps, which was launched in 2017 by co-founders CEO Dr Anna Wright, CCO Mladen Jovanovic and CPO Tony Burrett, is revolutionising the way people navigate indoor spaces, with the app able to be implemented in practically any indoor or outdoor space.

The BindiMaps app has been designed to help people of all abilities navigate unfamiliar indoor locations and point them in the right direction with 10-20 times more accuracy than Google Maps.
