Abstract
: Navigational abilities and wayfinding are important skills for participation in society. Landmark-based navigation is considered as an important basic wayfinding strategy. This strategy is used as the underlying concept for a rehabilitation training for people with topological disorientation. A digitization of this approach is proposed based on a smartphone application employing Augmented Realty concepts. This application allows to describe routes based on landmarks and a training of the defined routes. It is developed in an agile, interdisciplinary research process taking especially usability and privacy aspects into account.
