Original Abstract Submitted
Provided herein are an apparatus and method for displaying indoor driving information using map information and a motion sensor. A driving information display apparatus includes: a motion sensor configured for measuring the motion of a vehicle; a processor operatively connected to the motion sensor and configured to receive information related to the location of the vehicle and a change in the height of the vehicle, and to perform control to output a map around the vehicle; and a storage unit operatively connected to the processor and configured to store the map information of an indoor space composed of a plurality of floors and an algorithm run by the processor. The processor is further configured to check whether the vehicle has reached a link for entry to the indoor space, and when the vehicle enters the indoor space, identify the floor on which the vehicle is located, and perform control to output a map corresponding to the identified floor.
