UnMapped: Leveraging Experts’ Situated Experiences to Ease Remote Guidance in Collaborative Mixed Reality

CHI 2023UnMapped merges a live 3-D “window” into the novice’s scene with a static 3-D replica of the expert’s own desk, letting mentors anchor instructions to familiar spatial landmarks. Compared with fully immersive views, this hybrid layout sped up remote guidance, reduced communication overhead, and eased expert workload.

Do You Really Need to Know Where “That” Is? Enhancing Support for Referencing in Collaborative Mixed Reality Environments

CHI 2021 This paper presents a 2x2 mixed factorial experiment that explores the effects of providing spatial information and system-generated guidance to task objects. It also investigates the effects of such guidance on the remote collaborators need for spatial information.
