Claim Text:
1. A method for displaying progress of a moving person, comprising: measuring acceleration values of cyclic motion of locomotion of the moving person by means of an acceleration sensor; determining step data as a function of step cycle-specific acceleration stage characteristic accelerations a+ and/or braking stage characteristic accelerations a− obtained from the acceleration values measured by means of the acceleration sensor; obtaining compass readings of the moving person from a magnetometer; and determining a traveled route of the moving person by means of the step data and the compass readings, wherein the step data includes an acceleration stage characteristic acceleration a+ obtained as a mean value of a digitally filtered acceleration sensor signal a wherein the method further comprises displaying, in a display unit, the traveled route of the moving person, and guiding the moving person via step by step navigation using the traveled route.
