We present a two-phase experiment, involving both audio and tactile navigation and discuss the collected evaluation data. Our findings show a positive reception of implicit navigation from our users.}, keywords = {audio navigation, Implicit navigation, tactile navigation, urban environments}, doi = {10.1109/WiMOB.2014.6962188}, author = {Andreas Komninos and Ioanna-Maria Astrantzi and Athanasios Plessas and Vasilios Stefanis and John Garofalakis} }
