PaRE: A System for Personalized Route Guidance

The turn-by-turn directions provided in existing navigation applications are exclusively derived from underlying road network topology information, i.e., the connectivity of edges to each other. Therefore, the turn-by-turn directions are simplified as metric translation of physical world (e.g. distance/time to turn) to spoken language. Such translation that ignores human cognition of the geogra...

Intelligent Route Guidance

Cues for Vibro - tactile Route Guidance

In today’s modern and fast-paced world mobility is getting more and more important. One of the challenges with that is orientation in unknown places. Supporting technologies exist e.g. in the form of navigation devices, where most of them convey information through the auditory or visual channel. The modalities hearing and seeing have the advantage of being well explored and commonly used, but ...

Notification agents for mobile route guidance

Ubiquitous and mobile computing has become an important field in computer science. The provision, management and transmission of information within computer systems and for human-computer interaction is required for many applications and the individual needs of the mobile user are manifold. Due to information overflow it is difficult for the user to access specific pieces of information while k...

Route Guidance Modality for Elder Driver Navigation

Differences in perceptual and cognitive abilities between the young and elderly have implications for in-car tasks. As a primary example, although in-car navigation systems enhance situational awareness, this comes at the cost of increasing visual distraction and cognitive load. To address these shortcomings, this paper explores the efficacy of multi-modal cues for providing route guidance info...
