wayfinding

About us We're a small company in Brooklyn, NY (Dumbo), our mission is to bring smart wayfinding to the masses.

It turns out transit maps and wayfinding is one of the earliest modern attempts at information design that is standardized and legible.

The teachers along the way may serve as wayfinding, but must ultimately be discarded.

Perhaps even more inferior than the actual train experience is the wayfinding experience.

I think the approach should be similar to that used to come up with a wayfinding typeface, if we presume number tags should have their main characteristic to be readability from afar.

I've never heard this question before, but I assume it's finding words with the lowest Levenshtein distance between wordA and wordB and then wayfinding the route from wordA to WordB using the least steps possible?

And, alas, because of ignorance among normies, many of whom are still clueless that, for example, for hiking or outdoor wayfinding, there are much better alternatives available.

An interior designer has an architecture license and designs the inside of buildings, often including everything from where fire exits are, where utility lines flow, what floors everything is on, and even things like wayfinding signage.

But here is the main feature of this game: The virtual location you see in the game IS the airport and it is created using all relevant data (floorplans of the airport, wayfinding apps, and apps on your phone that are able to map rooms, measure direction, etc.).

London's tube stations have a lot of space between their platforms, enough to provide a network of hallways with separate entrance and exit passageways and escalators (some of them are equipped with switchable wayfinding signs so you can have different ways out at morning and evening rush hour).

If the Kindle 2 had better interactivity, there could be a highly responsive interface that could give you the same "wayfinding" feel.

I'm not trying to be contrarian, i also want boarding passes to be obsoleted, but it seems to me that "the wayfinding problem" isn't going away anytime soon.

There's a paper on it: "Video gaming, but not reliance on GPS, is associated with spatial navigation" paper shows there was a significant association between self-reported weekly hours of video gaming and wayfinding performance.

The next layer that everyone I have been working with over the last two years is looking for is "my location as it relates to the resources I am attempting to use" Things like wayfinding, occupancy, meeting-start-based-on-presence, issue reporting etc...
