Tactile wayfinder

Proceedings of the 5th Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction: building bridges, 2008
Digital maps and route descriptions on a PDA have become very popular for navigation, not the least with the advent of the iPhone and its Google Maps application. A visual support for wayfinding, however, is not reasonable or even possible all the time.

WayFinder

2013
Navigating a university campus can be difficult for visitors and incoming students/staff, particularly those who are blind or vision-impaired. Universities around the world, including University College Cork (UCC), generally rely on physical sign-posting and map-based information (available as a download from the university Website) to direct visitors,

Exploring Hospital Wayfinding Systems: Design Guidelines for Wayfinding Interfaces

2020
This paper is a culmination of a three-phased research project which examined the lack of usability and effectiveness of wayfinding in complex, multi-building hospitals. Researchers evaluated multiple interfaces, such as wayfinding kiosks and mobile applications, using various human factors methods.

Use of gestalt in wayfinding design and analysis of wayfinding process

Frontiers of Architecture and Civil Engineering in China, 2008
The authors brought forward the definition of “Gestalt space” and indicated this kind of space can be easily cognized. Three experiments showed that “classification” and “grouping” are the human strategies to solve wayfinding problems. “Similarity” and “Legibility” of the space are advantageous to help people to complete wayfinding tasks.

Wayfinder

2009
The decreasing costs of computing devices, increases in connectivity, and improved performance are altering the computing environments of users in fundamental ways. Users are no longer restricted to operating single devices in isolation but rather distribute and accessinformation across many devices and develop complex sharing patterns among groups of ...

Wayfinding Choreme Maps

2006
This contribution details how conceptual characterizations of route knowledge can provide the basis for graphical route information in a cognitively adequate way. The approach is based on the theory of wayfinding choremes that originated from the leitmotif to reflect mental conceptualization processes—as a canonical representation—in different modes of
