Thomas, M., Carruth, D. W., Robbins, B., McGinley, J., & Morais, A. (2007). Modeling Human Bipedal Navigation in a Dynamic Three Dimensional Virtual Environment. Proceedings of HCI International 2007. Beijing, China.

The current research sought to construct a computational model of human navigation for virtual three dimensional environments. The model was implemented within the ACT-R cognitive architecture [1]. The navigation model incorporates visual search, encoding object features and spatial relationships, motion, obstacle avoidance, and incidental visual memory.
