abstract = {Virtual Reality (VR) is increasingly recognized in gerontology as a tool for promoting physical activities, enhancing cognitive engagement, reducing isolation, and fostering interactive experiences among older adults. However, seniors often face challenges when learning VR, including physical limitations. Partnering with a local active aging community, we explore First Steps - a beginner-friendly VR application for Meta Quest, across two monthly sessions involving five community members to identify the challenges in using VR and applications of interest. Each session begins with a brief VR exposure, followed by initial impressions, extended VR engagement, and a focus group discussion. Our thematic analysis of the focus group and facilitator debrief sessions revealed key themes that provide insights into the group's various challenges, perceptions and interests. Our findings highlight both challenges - device discomfort, controller interaction difficulties, accessibility, and safety concerns - and opportunities, including enhanced social engagement, facilitator support, immersive enjoyment and potential for unlocking unlived adventures. These insights underscore VR's potential to enrich the lives of older adults when thoughtfully adapted to an active aging community's unique needs and interests for their members. },

We designed and examined a hapto-acoustic VR system that mitigates this by enabling non-visual exploration of large virtual environments using white cane simulation and walk-in place locomotion. The system features a complex urban cityscape incorporating a physical cane prototype coupled with a virtual cane for rendering surface textures, and an omnidirectional slide mill for navigation. In addition, spatialized audio is rendered based on the progression of sound through the geometry around the user. A study involving twenty sighted participants evaluated the system through three formative tasks while blindfolded to simulate absolute blindness. Participants were highly successful in completing all the tasks while effectively navigating through the environment. Our work highlights the potential for accessible, non-visual VR experiences, achievable even with minimal training and little prior exposure to VR.},

In a within-subjects study in a semi-controlled public environment with 12 pairs, we compared physical display-only and PerspectAR configurations for data analysis tasks. Participants reported less physical workload with PerspectAR and spent more time near the physical display without compromising task performance. Feedback indicates that PerspectAR addressed perspective distortion and provided a contextual view that was useful as a memory aid. Due to the virtual screen curvature, PerspectAR was seen as less effective for tasks involving distance estimates between objects.},

In order to help promote more sustainable operation of these vessels, it is important to to model fuel consumption based on different weather and sea conditions. To this end, we present a machine learning approach to modelling fuel consumption aboard small vessels using an LSTM architecture. In this paper, we discuss the process of collecting data aboard one such small vessel, the end-to-end model training & evaluation process, and discuss plans for future work.

While these instruments are very effective at creating a wide range of timbres, the way they in which they are typically performed is not always engaging to an audience or even to the performer. This paper present an initial prototype of Maplet, a module for integrating the libmapper project into the world of Eurorack. libmapper is an open-source project built to support the creation of mappings between components of Digital Musical Instruments. Decades worth of literature has shown how effective mappings are the backbone of the way both performers as well as their audience engage with the output of a digital instrument. With this in mind, we hypothesize that by introducing this mapping-first approach to performing with Eurorack synthesizers that musicians will be empowered to experiment with novel interfaces and techniques for performing with their instrument.},

abstract = {Virtual Reality (VR), predominantly focusing on visuospatial renderings in its contemporary approach, has created a conservative narrative, making VR solely analogous to a mediated visual experience. While accessibility is included in the developmental phase of commercial VR applications, it is often considered an add-on, resulting in sub-par virtual experiences that often exclude visually impaired users. This research addresses these limitations by designing a hapto-acoustic VR system that leverages spatial audio and haptic feedback for sensory substitution of visual dominance in VR. A large-scale urban virtual environment (VE) was created using the Unity Game Engine, incorporating a physical cane prototype coupled with a virtual cane for interaction and an omnidirectional slide mill for navigation. A user study with 20 normally sighted participants evaluated and compared the system's effectiveness in texture differentiation and navigation tasks under two conditions: with visual cues and exclusively through audio-haptic feedback. The study results indicated that even with minimal training and limited prior VR experience, participants could navigate the environment effectively in non-visual conditions, though at the cost of increased cognitive load and error rates compared to visual conditions. The evaluation highlights the necessity for improved feedback mechanisms and suggests further validation with visually impaired users. The overall research contributes to the development of accessible VR systems through a novel white cane prototype, realistic spatial audio effects and a comprehensive evaluation demonstrating the system's potential in aiding non-visual navigation in a complex, large-scale VE while also engendering empathetic literacy among sighted users.},

abstract = {Automatic Identification System (AIS) data is a crucial foundation of maritime operations such as navigation, traffic management, and safety monitoring. This requires robust management, visualization, and interactive visual analytics systems for the operators. Since usability, effectiveness, and accuracy are key factors in such maritime operations, it is important to design, implement, and evaluate these tools meticulously and incorporate the latest advancements in user interaction and analytics. This research explores the design and implementation of a novel system architecture for maritime data querying and exploration, enabling enhanced user interactions through direct-manipulation techniques. This system architecture provides a collaborative environment that incorporates Mixed Reality (MR), a touchable table-top interface, as well as iterative design and evaluation of a graph-based Visual Query Builder (VQB). The aim of developing the VQB interface is to allow non-experts to explore and query maritime data without the need of having technical skills while enhancing the decision-making process and spatial awareness of the maritime operations. This research further evaluates the VQB interface in terms of efficiency, accuracy, and user preferences by conducting a user study. For this study, we developed a baseline web-based textual interface for SPARQL queries, enhanced with auto-correction features and additional spatial querying capabilities, to effectively measure and fairly compare the performance of the VQB interface. 20 students from the faculty of computer science participated in this study without prior knowledge of RDF data querying and SPARQL language. Overall, the results of this study were promising as it showed a higher efficiency and accuracy rate as well as less perceived workload among participants in the VQB interface compared to the baseline. These findings highlight the role of visual query interfaces in improving the user experience as well as elevating efficiency, especially for non-experts, allowing them to explore and query maritime data without the need to learn technical skills.},

We developed WeavAR, an application for headworn augmented reality (AR) displays designed to teach basic bead weaving patterns. WeavAR combines virtual 3D hands showing weaving sequences recorded from an experienced bead weaver and a dynamic 3D bead model showing how the work progresses. Using a mixed within/between-subjects user study (n=30), we compared learning materials (AR to videos and figures) and learning material placement (in the area of work or to the side). Results show that the AR learning materials had comparable effectiveness to video and figures. Hand visualizations were found to lack crucial context, however, making them less useful than the 3D bead model. Extra measures to prevent obstruction are required when placing learning materials at the area of work.},

In this work we examine how using a focus device can mitigate poor context image quality due to environmental factors. In an exploratory study we compare three techniques for linking focus and context: lens-focus (Lens), where the device works as a mobile lens held parallel to and in front of the context, center-focus (Centered), where the user holds the device in the center of the projection and pans both context and focus by swiping, and marker-focus (Marker), where the focus region is highlighted on the context, and the user pans the focus by swiping. Participants performed searching, tracing, and detail acquisition tasks with maps and electronics diagrams under a range of simulated projection conditions. All techniques were able to mitigate poor projection quality and performed comparably in time and precision, but the effectiveness of each technique was impacted by task type. There was lower variation in time between participants using Lens for tracing tasks versus the other techniques, but wider variation for searching tasks. Tasks completed using sub-optimal projections involved more time spent looking at the context image than tasks with clear projections, however this difference is less pronounced for the Lens technique. We propose a hybrid Lens-Marker approach for mobile Focus+Context applications in dynamic environments.},

abstract = {Information sharing, either directly or trough summaries and proxies, is one of the pillars of collaborative systems in human-computer interaction. Representing and sharing role-specific information in collocated systems is one of the many challenges in groupware systems. In my thesis, I explore methods and their impacts on sharing role-based information in applications where users do not have uniform access to information either because they are using different technologies to access data or because there is no support for the flow of information. I present tools spanning both "What You See Is What I See" and "What You See Is Not What I See" approaches displaying either raw or summarized information to users. I present three studies leading towards an approach to support road cyclists to perform better as a unit by sharing their exertion information among all group members while leveraging technology ubiquitous to them. I start my work with a study exploring how to enable shared augmented reality experiences in museums when only one of the group members has access to an augmented reality headset. Either because there are not enough devices available or someone might feel uncomfortable using one in public. I propose two approaches for AR experiences (Over-the-Shoulder AR and Semantic Linking), a complementary technique (Indicator Rings), evaluate them in a long-term in-the-wild study, and discuss their impacts on museum scenarios and other applications. Later I present a design research study exploring the work done by road cyclists while training together, following a Contextual Design methodology. I expose their strategies and challenges with group coordination and communication and uncover a lack of support for sharing individual metrics such as effort in standard tools. Finally, I present my last study comparing the impacts on performance and self-reported metrics of two methods for road cyclists to share their exertion levels with group members while exercising: Paceguide and RPE View. I then discuss the broader implications of my work for the HCI community while proposing future research venues in Sport-HCI and other co-located work domains.},

I developed EmbodiAR, an application for headworn augmented reality (AR) displays designed to teach beginner bead weaving patterns using virtual 3D hands that show weaving sequences recorded from an experienced bead weaver and a dynamic 3D bead model showing how the work progresses. Using a mixed within/between-subjects user study (n=30), I compared the AR learning materials with videos and figures, and I compared learning material placement at the area of work or off to the side. Quantitative and qualitative data analysis shows that the new AR learning materials had comparable effectiveness to the more traditional video and figures. Hand visualizations were found to lack crucial context, however, making them less useful than the animated 3D model of beadwork. Additionally, extra measures to prevent obstruction are required when placing learning materials at the area of work.},

When authors place content in a locative AR narrative, they need to consider the relationships between the environment, the player's perspective, and the story events. This becomes more challenging and time-consuming when designing for multiple and/or unknown locations. We present Story CreatAR, a locative authoring tool that uses spatial analysis techniques to facilitate multi-site deployment. Story CreatAR was iteratively designed to help authors consider, test, and adjust spatial relationships in their story. We evaluated Story CreatAR in several ways: authors used Story CreatAR with a graph representation of their story and with a script, and developers did the same. Through a thematic analysis of user comments and behaviour we find that authors had difficulty understanding spatial analysis concepts and thinking in the abstract about placement across multiple sites. However, Story CreatAR encouraged authors to consider how the physical environment impacts their stories, and authors desired additional spatial analysis features.},

We first compare two variants of SOUS--a technique that guides the user to out-of-view targets using circle cues in their peripheral vision--with the existing FlyingARrow technique, in which arrows fly from the user's central (foveal) vision toward the target. fSOUS, a variant with low visual salience, performed well in a simple environment but not in visually complex environments, while bSOUS, a visually salient variant, yielded faster target selection than both fSous and FlyingARrow across all environments. We then compare hybrid techniques in which aspects of SOUS relating to unobtrusiveness and visual persistence were reflected in design modifications made to FlyingARrow. Increasing persistence by adding trails to arrows improved performance but there were concerns about obtrusiveness, while other modifications yielded slower and less accurate target acquisition. Nevertheless, since fSOUS and bSOUS are exclusively for head-mounted display with wide field-of-view, FlyingARrow with trail can still be beneficial for devices with limited field-of-view.},

Several high quality research projects and consumer grade products have been introduced recently, which has made hand-tracking more accessible to both developers and users than ever before. While many resources have been spent on developing these highly accurate hand-tracking services, significantly less effort has been spent on defining effective and efficient representations for the output data that these services report. As a solution to these shortcomings, this thesis introduces the concept of "named instances" which aim to provide a conceptual framework for representing hand-tracking data in a way that is accessible to users with all manner of unique use cases.},

The main challenge encountered in the building of large-scale mixed reality AR games is the uniqueness of the spatial settings in which the game will be experienced by the user. Game designers will require data of the spatial settings to determine game object placement, events and narrative flow. The problem arises because the designers are not aware of the physical environment in which the game will be played. In our research, we address this problem and take an approach to solving it by using Space Syntax techniques. We demonstrate the use of this technique, using a proof-of-concept game called Adventure AR.},

abstract = {Museums are constantly searching for new ways to increase engagement with their exhibits, from electronic guides to modern digital technologies such as special-purpose tablets, smartphones, and virtual and augmented reality (AR). For AR exhibits in particular, promoting shared experience and group cohesion is not straight-forward. In this work, we investigate scenarios in which not everyone is using a head-worn display (HWD), either because there aren’t enough available or simply because someone might feel uncomfortable using it.We propose three sharing techniques for AR experiences and evaluate them in a long term in-the-wild study: Over-the-Shoulder AR, which renders a real-time virtual representation of the augmented reality content on a large secondary display; Semantic Linking, which displays contextual information about the virtual content on the same large display; and Indicator Rings, which display the locations of the HWD user’s objects-of-focus. We observed that participants in theOver-the-Shoulder AR and Semantic Linking conditions stayed together and exhibited more verbal exchanges than participants in a Baseline condition, which could indicate that they were more engaged. Self-reported measures indicated an increase in pair communication and increased comprehension of the virtual content for participants without the HWD. Participants without the HWD also displayed a greater understanding of the location of virtual elements with support from theIndicator Rings, and used them as a tool to guide the HWD user through the virtual content. We discuss design implications for interactive augmented reality exhibits and possible applications outside the cultural heritage scenario.},
