Although these maps are widely studied and applied, it is still unclear how they affect human behavior and spatial knowledge acquisition. In this study, we recruited thirty-three college students to carry out an outdoor wayfinding experiment. We compared the effects of voice-assisted digital maps with those of digital maps without voice instructions and paper maps by using eye tracking, sketch maps, questionnaires and interviews. The results show that, compared to the other map types, voice-assisted digital maps can help users reach their destinations more quickly and pay more attention to moving objects, thereby increasing the comfort levels of participants. However, the efficiency of voice-assisted maps on route memory tasks does not rival that of paper maps. Overall, the use of voice-assisted digital maps saves time but may reduce pedestrians’ spatial knowledge acquisition. The results of this study reveal the influence of voice on pedestrian wayfinding and deepen the scientific understanding of the multimedia navigation mode in shaping human spatial ability.

What is the difference between augmented reality and 2D navigation electronic maps in pedestrian wayfinding? / Weihua Dong in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 48 n° 3 (May 2021)

We conducted an empirical study in which smartphone-based AR aids were compared with a common two-dimensional (2D) electronic map. We conducted eye-tracking wayfinding experiments, in which 73 participants used either a 2D electronic map or AR navigation aids. We statistically compared participants’ wayfinding performance, visual attention, and route memory between two groups (AR and 2D map navigation aids). The results showed their wayfinding performance did not differ significantly. Regarding visual attention, the participants using AR tended to have significantly shorter fixation durations, greater saccade amplitudes, and smaller pupil sizes on average than the 2D map participants, which indicates lower average cognitive workloads throughout the wayfinding process. Considering attention on environmental objects, the participants using AR paid less visual attention to buildings but more to persons than the participants using 2D maps. Sketched routes results revealed that it was more difficult for AR participants to form a clear memory of the route. The aim of this study is to inspire more usability research on AR navigation.

Comparing the roles of landmark visual salience and semantic salience in visual guidance during indoor wayfinding / Weihua Dong in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 47 n° 3 (May 2020)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > vol 47 n° 3 (May 2020) . - pp 229 - 243 Titre : Comparing the roles of landmark visual salience and semantic salience in visual guidance during indoor wayfinding Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Weihua Dong, Auteur ; Tong Qin, Auteur ; Hua Liao, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 229 - 243 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] analyse visuelle [Termes IGN] interprétation (psychologie) [Termes IGN] oculométrie [Termes IGN] point de repère [Termes IGN] questionnaire [Termes IGN] saillance [Termes IGN] scène intérieure [Termes IGN] segmentation sémantique [Termes IGN] test statistique [Termes IGN] vision [Termes IGN] vision par ordinateur [Vedettes matières IGN] Géovisualisation Résumé : (auteur) Landmark visual salience (characterized by features that contrast with their surroundings and visual peculiarities) and semantic salience (characterized by features with unusual or important meaning and content in the environment) are two important factors that affect an individual’s visual attention during wayfinding. However, empirical evidence regarding which factor dominates visual guidance during indoor wayfinding is rare, especially in real-world environments. In this study, we assumed that semantic salience dominates the guidance of visual attention, which means that semantic salience will correlate with participants’ fixations more significantly than visual salience. Notably, in previous studies, semantic salience was shown to guide visual attention in static images or familiar scenes in a laboratory environment. To validate this assumption, first, we collected the eye movement data of 22 participants as they found their way through a building. We then computed the landmark visual and semantic salience using computer vision models and questionnaires, respectively. Finally, we conducted correlation tests to verify our assumption. The results failed to validate our assumption and show that the role of salience in visual guidance in a real-world wayfinding process is different from the role of salience in perceiving static images or scenes in a laboratory. Visual salience dominates visual attention during indoor wayfinding, but the roles of salience in visual guidance are mixed across different landmark classes and tasks. The results provide new evidence for understanding how pedestrians visually interpret landmark information during real-world indoor wayfinding.
