Spatial Navigation: Spatial Learning in Real and Virtual Environments
Humans and many non-human animals need to accurately and efficiently navigate from one place to the next in their environment. Over 3,000 years ago the volcanic islands of the Pacific were settled by the people of Polynesia (Gibbons, 2001). These navigators sailed in craft from Samoa to Hawaii covering an area extending some 4,500 km without the benefits of modern navigational equipment. Errors...
متن کاملSpatial learning for navigation in dynamic environments
This article describes techniques that have been developed for spatial learning in dynamic environments and a mobile robot system, ELDEN, that integrates these techniques for exploration and navigation. In this research, we introduce the concept of adaptive place networks, incrementally-constructed spatial representations that incorporate variable-confidence links to model uncertainty about top...
متن کاملSpatial knowledge acquisition from maps and from navigation in real and virtual environments.
In this study, the nature of the spatial representations of an environment acquired from maps, navigation, and virtual environments (VEs) was assessed. Participants first learned the layout of a simple desktop VE and then were tested in that environment. Then, participants learned two floors of a complex building in one of three learning conditions: from a map, from direct experience, or by tra...
متن کاملSpatial Navigation in Virtual Reality Environments: An EEG Analysis
Past research has linked theta oscillations (electroencephalographic activity in the 4-8-Hz range) to spatial navigation in rodents and humans, and to the encoding and retrieval of spatial information in rodents. In the present study, electroencephalographic activity was measured while humans navigated through virtual mazes. Results confirmed previous findings that the frequency of theta episod...
متن کاملVisual landmarks facilitate rodent spatial navigation in virtual reality environments.
Because many different sensory modalities contribute to spatial learning in rodents, it has been difficult to determine whether spatial navigation can be guided solely by visual cues. Rodents moving within physical environments with visual cues engage a variety of nonvisual sensory systems that cannot be easily inhibited without lesioning brain areas. Virtual reality offers a unique approach to...
