“…The expert can induce the cooperator to move as the expert moves if the cooperator tries to mimic the movements of the expert. The potential of the WBNS has been confirmed by a number of experiments [12][9] [11]. However, the present Augmented Reality (AR) technology has a number of issues, due to the limitations of the headmounted displays (HMDs): (1) ordinary users require a few minutes to wear the HMD and obtain the appropriate vision from the HMD; (2) some individuals may experience motion sickness while wearing the HMD; (3) the field of view of low-cost HMDs is usually narrow; and (4) the cost of HMDs is relatively high.…”

“…In order to realize general human behavior navigation, we proposed and developed a wearable behavior navigation system (WBNS) using Augmented Reality (AR) technology [9] [11]. The WBNS utilizes the feedback of the visual information, which is acquired by a cooperator next to a victim and then provided to an expert in a remote site, such as the emergency and critical care center.…”

Performing general human behavior by experts' navigation is expected to be realized as wearable and ubiquitous technologies and computing develop further. For example, the user of the behavior navigation system will be able to conduct first aid treatment as an expert would. We proposed and developed the Wearable Behavior Navigation System (WBNS) using Augmented Reality (AR) technology. By using the WBNS, an expert can guide a non-expert to conduct a variety of first aid treatments. However, a number of issues must be resolved in order to commercialize the WBNS using AR technology, because of the limitations of the Head Mounted Display (HMD). It usually takes a few minutes to wear the HMD. The time required for wearing the HMD is a critical problem for performing emergency first-aid treatment. In order to start the first-aid treatment as soon as possible, we propose three simpler Behavior Navigation Systems (BNSs) using popular video conferencing systems on an internet TV, a laptop computer, and a smartphone. Although these BNSs do not have general behavior navigation function, they have enough capability to conduct the behavior navigation for CPR (CardioPulmonary Resuscitation), which is the most critical/important first aid treatment. In this paper, the configuration of the BNSs for CPR, the instructions for remote CPR, and the results of the preliminary experiments are presented.

In field operations with large machines, onsite large task spaces have been typically required. In these cases, remote skilled workers have to provide a step‐by‐step guide by observing the onsite situation around the large task spaces in three dimensions, instructing onsite unskilled workers on how to perform the tasks with the correct hand gestures at the right position, and switching between observation and instruction frequently during the remote support. In this study, we developed a Metaverse‐based remote support system with a seamless user interface for switching between free viewpoint observation and hand gesture instruction. The proposed system enables remote skilled workers to observe the onsite field from any viewpoint, transfer hand gesture instruction to onsite workers, and seamlessly switch between free viewpoint observation and free hand gesture instruction without having to change devices. We compared the time efficiency of the proposed system and a conventional system through experiments with 28 users and found that our system improved the observation time efficiency by 65.7%, the instruction time efficiency by 27.9%, and the switching time efficiency between observation and instruction by 14.6%. These results indicate that the proposed system enables remote skilled workers to support onsite workers quickly and efficiently.
