HeatMeUp: a 3DUI Serious Game to Explore Collaborative Wayfinding

Wayfinding inside a virtual environment is a cognitive process during navigation. Normally the user inside the virtual environment has to rely on himself and different cues such as waypoints to improve his knowledge with regard to his surroundings. In this paper we will present our solution for the 3DUI Contest 2012: Heat- MeUP, a 3DUI serious game to explore collaborative alternatives, in which a partner is responsible for providing wayfinding cues. The game is set in a multi-storey building where several fires and gas leaks occur and a firefighter has to overcome several challenges, guided by a fire chief.
