Can You Improve Your Sense of Direction (with Technology)? | DigiKey

The ability to navigate and understand directions seems to be something built into the brains of many creatures (including humans). And like any good probabilistic system, some people are better at navigating than others. I’m one of the unfortunate ones that have a terrible sense of direction. I get lost after 2 turns in a new location.

While studies have shown we can improve our navigational skills with practice (like most skills), I want to see if I can improve my sense of direction using passive means. As a result, I turn to the aid of technology.
