Název v původním jazyce

Cognitive Maps Acquisition by Those with Vision Impairments in Virtual Reality

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Individuals with vision impairments (VI) require specific methods to acquire spatial knowledge of the environment they need to orientate themselves. Such knowledge is called a cognitive map of the spatial environment and has multiple components (landmarks, distances, directions, routes, etc.). The performance of interaction methods varies in the acquisition of different components of spatial knowledge. Our research focuses on the employment of Virtual Reality adapted for VI as a novel method for acquiring cognitive maps. We leverage a combination of interaction modalities (vibrations, haptic feedback through a modified white cane, and in the future even spatial audio) to provide spatial knowledge of indoor environments.
