This Work In Progress paper reports on a novel approach to pedestrian tracking in confined areas which is based on a combined use of a stereo vision tracking system and a set of sensors available on a mobile platform. This platform is a hands-free, sensory augmented, wearable computer, designed to support visits to museums and archaeological sites. The system is going to be demonstrated within the framework of a Cultural Heritage application at the Musei Universitari di Palazzo Poggi in Bologna.
