Comparison of Spatial Knowledge Acquisition with Different Presentation Forms in the Context of GPS-based Pedestrian Navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with current ongoing efforts to investigate the influence of different presentation forms on spatial knowledge acquisition. The acquisition of spatial knowledge based on map, augmented reality (AR), and language is analyzed and compared in an empirical test for GPS-based pedestrian navigation. This paper describes the hypothesis and the methodology. Also work in progress on interpreting the results is presented. It is proposed that the results will be very useful for future mobile navigation system developments, as navigation systems typically use different presentation forms for conveying information, which may affect users’ spatial knowledge acquistion, and thus influence wayfinding success.

متن کاملEvaluating Three Interface Technologies in Assisting Pedestrians’ Spatial Knowledge Acquisition
Recent years have seen raising interests in mobile pedestrian navigation systems. Different interface technologies can be used to communicate/convey route directions to pedestrians, such as mobile maps, voices, and augmented reality (AR). Many field experiments have been conducted to study the effectiveness of different interface technologies in guiding pedestrians to their destinations. In con...
متن کاملPedestrian Navigation Aids, Spatial Knowledge and Walkability
This study attempts to demonstrate the impact of pedestrian navigation aids on spatial knowledge acquisition and its link to walkability in an urban environment. Spatial knowledge is important for pedestrian travel. Rich spatial knowledge contributes to a good mental image of the walking environment, which consequently increases travel confidence and potentially allows more active walking. Whil...
متن کاملTactile Wayfinder: Comparison of Tactile Waypoint Navigation with Commercial Pedestrian Navigation Systems
In this paper we report on a field study comparing a commercial pedestrian navigation system to a tactile navigation system called Tactile Wayfinder. Similar to previous approaches the Tactile Wayfinder uses a tactile torso display to present the directions of a route’s waypoints to the user. It advances those approaches by conveying the location of the next two waypoints rather than the next o...
متن کاملGPS Jamming Detection in UAV Navigation Using Visual Odometry and HOD Trajectory Descriptor
Auto-navigating of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in the outdoor environment is performed by using the Global positioning system (GPS) receiver. The power of the GPS signal on the earth surface is very low. This can affect the performance of GPS receivers in the environments contaminated with the other source of radio frequency interference (RFI). GPS jamming and spoofing are the most serious a...
