Generates configurable path integration (PI) patterns for Virtual Reality (VR) navigation experiments with RStudio. Creates 4-point configurations (Spawn→Start→Distractor→Goal→back to Start) optimized for maximum path length while respecting geometric constraints.
The script was developed out of the need for rapid randomized generation of path integration patterns that can be easily adapted to the respective experimental conditions.
In addition to the actual RStudio script, the package also contains an accompanying ReadMe file, sample input data, and the corresponding output files.
Visualizes participant navigation trajectories from Virtual Reality (VR) path integration (PI) experiments, showing target locations, traversed paths, orientation arrows, and drop error distances in RStudio.
The script was developed to check whether participants performed the task correctly or whether other problems occurred during a trial (e.g., path integration marker was not deactivated correctly). Such trials were successfully excluded from further data analysis using the visualization script.
In addition to the actual RStudio script, the package also includes an accompanying ReadMe file, sample input data, and the corresponding output visualizations.
