MOVE: A Dynamic, Contextually Optimized In-Car Navigation System
MOVE (Maps Optimized for Vehicular Environments) is an in-car navigation system that provides assistance for drivers who are navigating an unfamiliar route. It overcomes the limitation of current systems, which often provide too much information for the driver to attend to at any given moment. MOVE optimizes map information to provide situationally appropriate navigation information to the driver.
We used an iterative design and evaluation process that shaped the MOVE system, starting with map reading and navigation studies that led to early designs for our system. A study of visual search tasks refined the renditions used for the system. A study of the current design showed that can reduce the driver’s perceptual load significantly. Te total map display fixation time was decreased six-fold, and the number of glances to interpret the map display were decreased threefold, when comparing MOVE’s contextually optimized display to a static display.
