Abstract: It is a common scene for many of us getting from point A to point B. A scene we forget did not exist a little over a decade ago. A phone or device is taken out, a destination is typed into a search box, and a route or several are offered. The user then makes a route decision, places the device within sight, or holds it as they travel. The user relies on provided instructions for most of the route taken and tangential subsequential decision-making. These behaviors are not only accepted as the norm, but our reliance deems them necessary to find our way around. The implications of these behaviors can be observed on a daily basis. As the development of Internet of Things (IOT) unfolds, we have witnessed a new design paradigm that needs addressed ¬– balancing the users’ ability to successfully manage contextual information and ambient information.
