文摘

It is an open question, whether differently developed orientation skills require alternate pedestrian navigation interface designs for optimal self-localization during wayfinding. To address this issue we conducted two user studies in order to analyze different presentations of mobile maps.

Evaluations were conducted in an outdoor (N=112den">de">$N=112$) and indoor (N=64den">de">$N=64$) environment. We recorded the time it took participants to localize themselves with the help of salient objects. Significant results were found for both studies. Abstract interfaces support well-oriented users, whereas worse oriented ones profited from standard designs. Consequently, we make the case for user-adaptive pedestrian navigation interfaces.
