Abstract
Turn-by-turn Google maps navigation was compared to turn-by-turn auditory Google maps navigation, Beeline as-the-crow-flies navigation, and turn-by-turn printed textual navigation. Through a convenience sample data from 30 participant have been gathered. Participants completed a navigational task in Vinkhuizen, Groningen, four times, with a different device in each part. As measured by eye-fixations, auditory turn-by-turn navigation imposed a smaller visual workload demand than regular google maps turn-by-turn navigation. The audio instruction did not require visual attention; however, the auditory navigation was not preferred due to technical difficulties, the absence of a replay option and insufficient audibility participants experienced. Contrary to expectations, turn-by-turn google maps navigation was not more visually demanding than as-the-crow-flies navigation. Also printed textual turn-by-turn navigation was not more visually demanding for the cyclist than turn-by-turn google maps instructions.
