Use of augmented reality in human wayfinding: a systematic review

Virtual Reality, 2023
Augmented reality(AR) technology has emerged as a promising solution to assist with wayfinding difficulties,bridging the gap between obtaining navigational assistance and maintaining an awareness ofone’s real-world surroundings.

Navigating the twilight years: Supporting older adults' orientation and wayfinding in senior living facilities.

Archives of gerontology and geriatrics (Print), 2023
In their twilight years, spatial disorientation can cause significant challenges for older adults, leading them to become perpetually disoriented or rely more on environmental cues and others for navigation. Unfortunately, wayfinding within senior living

Understanding Differences in Wayfinding Strategies

Topics in Cognitive Science, 2022
Navigating to goal locations in a known environment (wayfinding) can be accomplished by different strategies, notably by taking habitual, well-learned routes (response strategy) or by inferring novel paths, such as shortcuts, from spatial knowledge of ...

Adults’ Visual Cue Preferences and Wayfinding Abilities in Healthcare Centers

HERD, 2023
Objectives: Physical and visual elements that help people find their way around an environment are called visual cues (VCs). The current study aims to evaluate adults’ wayfinding abilities (navigation, orientation, spatial anxiety, and distance ...

What is the difference between augmented reality and 2D navigation electronic maps in pedestrian wayfinding?

Cartography and Geographic Information Science, 2021
Augmented reality (AR) navigation aids have become widely used in pedestrian navigation, yet few studies have verified their usability from the perspective of human spatial cognition, such as visual attention, cognitive processing, and spatial memory. We

Wayfinding Behavior and Spatial Knowledge Acquisition: Are They the Same in Virtual Reality and in Real-World Environments?

Annals of the American Association of Geographers, 2021
Finding one’s way is a fundamental daily activity and has been widely studied in the field of geospatial cognition. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) techniques provide new approaches for investigating wayfinding behavior and spatial knowledge acquisition.

Fostering Mobility for People Living with Dementia in Suburban Neighborhoods Through Land Use, Urban Design and Wayfinding

Journal of planning education and research, 2022
The World Health Organization (WHO) calls dementia the leading cause of dependency and disability among older adults. People living with dementia (PLWD) are more likely to reside in community, and often within suburban areas.

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.

The Effectiveness of Visual and Audio Wayfinding Guidance on Smartglasses for People with Low Vision

International Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2020
Wayfinding is a critical but challenging task for people who have low vision, a visual impairment that falls short of blindness. Prior wayfinding systems for people with visual impairments focused on blind people, providing only audio and tactile ...
