Pedestrian Navigation System Implications on Visualization

Advances in Human Computer Interaction

“…Figure 7. A context aware application using Halo circles to show off screen locations (Mahler et al 2007) Clearly, context awareness as well as mobility allow for new adaptive systems. Depending on the application a special notion of context is used and implemented.…”

“…However, for ubiquitous computing to seamlessly integrate into the real world it is crucial to seamlessly recognize context and to integrate existing sensory information (Pascoe et al, 1999). An example for seamless integration of context in a mobile application, especially its visualization, and its reduction of the user's burden is shown by Mahler et al (Mahler et al 2007). For a pedestrian navigation system different visualization techniques were analysed and evaluated with special regard to the cognitive load.…”
