| Research Abstract |
To understand relationship between architectural space and utterance in group way-finding behavior with communication, the following researches have been conducted.
1.The experiment was conducted for subjects to find a way from the Musashi-kosugi Station, said easy to lose their way, to the Nakahara Ward Office with saying their feeling or observations. Based on the experiment, we chose a route from the station to the office, installed signs in the route, and conducted another experiment for the other subjects wearing an eye camera to find a way to the ward office for the first time. According to this experiment, object fixated and fixation duration in way-finding through the urban area, and change of visual search by design or placement of sign were found.
2.We conducted virtual space of the way from the Musashi-kosugi Station to the Nakahara Ward Office, with walls, roads and stairs described in VRML, and stuck textures created with photographs of buildings on the walls.
3.The experiment was conducted for subjects to find a way from the Musasi-Kosugi Station to the Nakahara ward office in the virtual space. We have developed FreeWalk that is a system for way-fording with communication in virtual space.
