A Multiple-Choice Maze-like Spatial Navigation Task for Humans Implemented in a Real-Space, Multipurpose Circular Arena

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Spatial navigation is a key aspect of human behavior and it is still not completely understood. A number of experimental approaches exist, although most of the published data in the last decades have relied on virtual maze on-screen simulation or not ...

Real-Time Navigation in Google Street View® Using a Motor Imagery-Based BCI

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Navigation in virtual worlds is ubiquitous in games and other virtual reality (VR) applications and mainly relies on external controllers. As brain–computer interfaces (BCI)s rely on mental control, bypassing traditional neural pathways, they provide to ...

Increased mesiotemporal delta activity characterizes virtual navigation in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Hippocampal theta or rhythmic slow activity (RSA) occurring during exploratory behaviors and rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep is a characteristic and well-identifiable oscillatory rhythm in animals.

Control of rodent and human spatial navigation by room and apparatus cues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A growing body of literature indicates that rats prefer to navigate in the direction of a goal in the environment (directional responding) rather than to the precise location of the goal (place navigation).

2D Virtual Reality-Based Exercise Improves Spatial Navigation in Institutionalized Non-robust Older Persons: A Preliminary Data Report of a Single-Blind, Randomized, and Controlled Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Spatial navigation is a prodromal dementia marker. Exercise used alongside virtual reality improves many cognitive functions, but effects on spatial navigation are still unclear.Objective: To investigate the effect of virtual reality-based ...

A Connectionist Model of Spatial Knowledge Acquisition in a Virtual Environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper proposes the use of neural networks as a tool for studying navigation within virtual worlds. Results indicate that network learned to predict the next step for a given trajectory, acquiring also basic spatial knowledge in terms of landmarks ...

Simulation Framework for Evaluation of Indoor Navigation Systems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In this paper, we introduce the first simulation framework that provides cost-effective means to evaluate indoor navigation systems for different user groups (e.g., users with visual impairment), various positioning techniques, and navigation ...

Adaptive navigation assistance based on eye movement features in virtual reality

open access: yesVirtual Reality & Intelligent Hardware, 2023
Background: Navigation assistance is very important for users when roaming in virtual reality scenes, however, the traditional navigation method requires users to manually request a map for viewing, which leads to low immersion and poor user experience ...

Is Navigation in Virtual Reality with fMRI Really Navigation?

open access: yesJournal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2013
AbstractIdentifying the neural mechanisms underlying spatial orientation and navigation has long posed a challenge for researchers. Multiple approaches incorporating a variety of techniques and animal models have been used to address this issue. More recently, virtual navigation has become a popular tool for understanding navigational processes ...
