If the task includes navigation, then the mode of movement is also relevant. The research on electronic map displays for aviation, automobiles, and pedestrian overlaps somewhat but not completely. The differences depend on whether you want to emphasize an ego-centered reference frame, world-centered reference frame, or both. Can you describe the task in more detail? | |
