Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the interaction mode on users’ wayfinding performance. Both the dynamic peephole (DP) and static peephole (SP) interaction modes were examined. Sixty users were divided into two groups, where users in one group had previous experiences of mobile wayfinding (i.e., experienced users) while those in the other group did not (i.e., inexperienced users). The experiment was a 2 × 2 within-subjects design. All of the participants were invited to complete four wayfinding tasks, and the system usability scale (SUS) questionnaire was also adopted. The results show that adopting a dynamic peephole is superior to a static peephole for perceptual wayfinding tasks. Interaction mode and user experience did not significantly affect wayfinding performance in general. Moreover, dynamic peephole gained a higher SUS score.
