Definition(s)

  • Human wayfinding involves two different functions: (1) maintaining orientation within the large-scale environment for the purpose of navigating to remote destinations, and (2) sensing of the immediate environment, including paths and obstacles, for the purpose of moving along desired routes. In connection with the training of wayfinding skills in blind people, these functions are referred to as orientation and mobility.
