Abstract
Using landmark-based navigation can greatly improve drivers’ route-finding performance. Previous research in this area has tended to focus on the inclusion of text or icon-based landmark information utilising dashboard-mounted displays. In contrast, we present landmark-based navigation information using a Head-Up Display (HUD). A major issue with using landmarks for navigation is their inherent variability in quality, with many ‘poor’ candidates that are not easily identifiable or communicable. A proposed solution to improve the usefulness and utility of such landmarks is to highlight/enhance them using augmented reality (AR). Twenty participants undertook four drives in a driving simulator utilising an AR navigation system presented on a HUD. Participants were provided navigational instructions presented as either conventional distance-to-turn information, on-road arrows or augmented landmark information (arrow highlighting or box enclosing landmark adjacent to the required turning). Participants demonstrated significant performance improvements while using the AR landmark 'box’ presentations compared to conventional distance-to-turn information, with response times and success rates enhanced by 43.1% and 26.2%, respectively. Moreover, drivers reported a significant reduction in workload when using the AR landmark ‘boxes’. We conclude that there are significant benefits to providing navigational information utilising AR presentations of landmark information on a HUD.
