Abstract

Mixed reality (MR) presentations often involve a presenter wearing a head-mounted display (HMD) and an audience watching via a large display, making it difficult for audiences to perceive spatial relationships between the presenter and virtual objects. We report two experiments testing three design variations: (1) scene camera placement (audience-aligned vs. opposite), (2) overlaying the presenter’s first-person view, and (3) highlighting objects in the presenter’s view. Results show that audience-aligned cameras and object highlighting improve spatial understanding, while combining third- and first-person views can further aid perception. We derive design guidelines for configuring MR presentations to better support audience comprehension.

Comments

The work was recently presented (the conference is now over); however, I cannot find it online. I suspect the publication process is not yet complete.
