Abstract:
Spatial ability is one of the main components of human intelligence and is especially important for orientation and wayfinding. In this paper, studies using Virtual Reality to investigate aspects of spatial ability will be discussed. For this purpose Virtual Reality tour of Faculty of Mechanical Engineering – University of Nis was created. The main goal of this research is investigating the possibility of enriching traditional way of indoor orientation by creating an interactive Virtual Reality presentation. Possibility of web based and Head Mounted Display use for presentation is investigated and compared.

Key words:
Virtual Reality, orientation, wayfinding, web, Head Mounted Display

Thematic field:
