Resumo(s)
Pedestrian Navigation can help greatly in spatial knowledge acquisition. Forced
migrants (i.e. refugees and asylum seekers) have the need of familiarizing at
a fast pace with their new resettlements. This masters thesis studied the e ect
of an alternative way of conveying route directions to the Forced Migrants. It
was done by adding Location-Based Augmented Reality at decision points on
a 2D Map route guidance system. It aimed to compare this interface with
traditional 2D Maps for landmark and route knowledge acquisition & ease in
navigation. A user study with ten forced immigrants was conducted in the city
of M unster, Germany to understand the navigation experience with the two
interfaces. The results showed better landmark and spatial knowledge attainment
using the interface with Augmented Reality. Also, participants found their way
around more easily with this interface.
