Abstract

This study aims to understand the potential of using vibrotactile stimulation for indoor orientation in complex, unfamiliar buildings. Four vibrotactile prototypes have been analysed and tested in initial trials in order to investigate the benefits and the problems of each solution. The main goal of this study is to reach a better understanding of the design aspects that make a vibrotactile solution intuitive and effective.
