Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of visual properties on the human movement behavior experimentally and empirically
using spatial analysis technique based on ecological perception theory. For the survey of choosing behaviors of heading direction in built
environments, the experiment was conducted in which the subjects were made to choose moving directions in some spaces using the virtual
environment simulation tool, and then comparative analysis was conducted on the interrelation between the experiment results and various
visual properties in existing spatial analysis techniques based on ecological perception theory. As a result, the occlusivity of the isovist theory
was found to be the most significant index in the human choice of heading direction, and the longest radial also showed somewhat
significant effect on it. |
