Wayfinding AI
AI for designing intuitive navigation systems in buildings.
Definition
Wayfinding AI helps designers create intuitive navigation experiences in complex buildings. These systems can analyze circulation patterns, recommend signage locations, evaluate sightlines, and simulate pedestrian movement. AI wayfinding design ensures occupants and visitors can easily navigate hospitals, airports, campuses, and other complex facilities.
In Depth
Wayfinding design creates the system of signs, graphics, colors, and architectural cues that guide people through buildings and campuses. AI optimizes sign placement based on decision points (where people need to choose a direction), sight lines (where signs are visible from approaching paths), and code requirements (accessible signage, exit signage, fire evacuation maps).
Examples
Analyzing circulation paths for intuitive navigation
Optimizing signage placement for visibility
Simulating emergency egress flows
