Mixed Reality (MR) enables users to explore a wonderland which is not realizable in the physical world. This provides users with the chance to communicate in many different ways. We present our MR multi-user workstation system to investigate how different configurations of participants and content affect communication between people in the same immersive environment. We implemented mirrored face-to-face communication, side-by-side communication and eyes-free communication by using the presentation tool Chalktalk as the content creation server and designing a multi-user MR environment. We have conducted a preliminary user study for our mirrored face-to-face configuration, evaluating with respect to one-to-one interaction, focus shift and eye-contact. We provide experimental results and interview responses.
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.
