This literature review explores the use of augmented reality (AR) technology to enhance route planning and navigational accuracy, particularly for older adults. It examines various research papers that investigate the effectiveness of AR-based navigation systems in addressing challenges faced by older individuals, such as declining cognitive abilities and apprehension towards technology. The review analyzes the techniques, algorithms, and frameworks employed in these solutions, highlighting their advantages, limitations, and potential for future development. By examining the current state of AR-based navigation research, this review aims to provide insights into the potential of AR to improve the lives of older adults and enhance their ability to navigate their surroundings.
