👉 Navigate studies typically inhabit controlled, virtual environments such as computer simulations, video games, or specialized software designed to mimic real-world navigation scenarios. These environments are engineered to test spatial awareness, pathfinding abilities, and decision-making in complex settings. They often include features like 3D maps, dynamic obstacles, and interactive elements to replicate real-world challenges. Unlike natural environments (e.g., forests or cities), these are highly structured to isolate specific variables for rigorous experimentation.
