Effects of an Adaptive Modality Selection Algorithm for Navigation Systems

Explore a conference talk that delves into the effects of an adaptive modality selection algorithm for navigation systems. Learn about the design and results of a study evaluating the effectiveness of dynamically selecting directional guidance modalities in portable electronic navigation systems. Discover how this algorithm considers task-specific benefits, time-varying effects of switching cost, stimulus-specific adaptation, and habituation. Understand the implications of improved user performance when handling multiple simultaneous tasks. Gain insights into visual navigation aids, research methodologies, experiment design, concurrent tasks, metrics, analysis, and potential applications. The presentation covers the study's limitations and concludes with a question-and-answer session.
