Free Choice Navigation in the Real World: Giving Back Freedom to Wayfinders
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2023 In recent years, there has been collected evidence suggesting that increased usage of navigation assistance systems has a harmful effect on spatial cognition, including spatial knowledge acquisition. Previously, we proposed a potential remedy called Free

Learning Spatial Models for Navigation [PDF]
, 2015 Typically, autonomous robot navigation relies on a detailed, accurate map. The associated representations, however, do not readily support human-friendly interaction. The approach reported here offers an alternative: navigation with a spatial model and commonsense qualitative spatial reasoning. Both are based on research about how people experience and

Multisensory input modulates memory-guided spatial navigation in humans
Communications Biology, 2023 Efficient navigation is supported by a cognitive map of space. The hippocampus plays a key role for this map by linking multimodal sensory information with spatial memory representations.

Rethinking GPS navigation: creating cognitive maps through auditory clues
Scientific Reports, 2021 GPS navigation is commonplace in everyday life. While it has the capacity to make our lives easier, it is often used to automate functions that were once exclusively performed by our brain. Staying mentally active is key to healthy brain aging. Therefore,
