Pedestrian navigation is an area which has been researched in a variety of projects and prototypical developments in recent years. This work describes the concept of a pedestrian navigation system prototype, Reality View, which is based on real images in real-time navigation. The navigation instruction is depicted by a virtual route object presented in an augmented reality (AR) environment. This paper discusses a pilot test of the pedestrian navigation system prototype developed on eye-tracking. An additional questionnaire shows the test subject’s mental reaction towards the system and the usability of the system itself. The evaluation of the eye-tracking pilot test allows the analysis of prominent objects in the environment and describes the relationship between reality and navigation instructions.
