With continued technological innovations in the fields of mixed reality (MR), wearable type MR devices, such as head-mounted display (HMD), have been released and are frequently used in various fields, such as entertainment, training, education, and shopping. However, because each product has different parts and specifications in terms of design and manufacturing process, users feel that the virtual objects overlaying real environments in MR are visualized differently, depending on the scale and color used by the MR device. In this paper, we compare the effect of scale and color parameters on users’ perceptions in using different types of MR devices to improve their MR experiences in real life. We conducted two experiments (scale and color), and our experimental study showed that the subjects who participated in the scale perception experiment clearly tended to underestimate virtual objects, in comparison with real objects, and overestimated color in MR environments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
