Abstract The streetscape is a space where pedestrians guarantee mobility in urban life and support the commercial activities of the city. Commercial spaces are often planned for activation around streetscape with themes, and are spaces where people share designs owned by the public. It requires a number of common interests and interactions, and serves as an intermediary space where people who use the space first meet. Therefore, it should be designed as an accessible space for citizens to use and enjoy. This study conducted an Eye-tracking experiment(Glasses Type) on the streetscape.
Based on the use behavior of pedestrian streets and analysis of surrounding areas, the basic data of the street design and new programs for the process of designing space design for the revitalization of pedestrian streets are provided.
Through experiments, external experiments confirmed that data was affected by sunlight in the process of acquiring and storing gaze information. Residents and young people's gaze in street space acquires visual perception information from the left and right in the central perspective area. It was found that the difference in the walking direction influenced the landscaping or sculpture. Gridded AOIs from which gaze data were extracted were of primary interest in residents and youth groups. In addition, the frequency of AOIs among residents and young people was higher in A3 and B7 than in “Youth>Resident”, and in C1 and C3, it was higher than in “Resident>Youth”. In the Gridded AOI analysis, the gaze data with the largest number of “C3 youth and residents” was analyzed in extracting the average time of duration. As a result of the analysis of the experiment, the subject group also found a difference in the characteristics of obtaining the gaze information. This difference seems to have influenced the setting of the walking path, the walking speed, and the order of acquiring visual perception information.
