Aligning visual imagery to the operator improves geospatial situation awareness in a single-display 360-degree periscope concept by Jason Bell, Zachary Howard, Stephen Pond, Troy Visser, Madison Fitzgerald, Megan Schmitt, Shayne Loft, Steph Michailovs

“…Results revealed a strong influence of display-operator alignment on geospatial SA: an aligned display representing contacts in front of an operator at the top of the display and contacts behind an operator at the bottom of the display, produced better geospatial SA (faster, more accurate responses) than other, less aligned display configurations. Diffusion modelling indicated that greater display alignment improved geospatial SA by both increasing information-processing speed and decreasing the amount of evidence required to make decisions. …”
