“…Typical augmented reality applications concentrate on the presentation aspect mixing the actual physical setting with virtual content that may be presented visually or using other modalities, e.g., audio (Ganapathy, 2013), smell (Silva et al, 2016), or haptic (R. T. Azuma, 1997;Fujinawa et al, 2017). The physical and virtual feedback elements can complement one another in the ways they communicate concepts (Hoang & Cox, 2018), mixing the physical spatial concepts with virtual reimagining (Milgram et al, 1995).…”

Aim/Purpose: Designing augmented reality (AR) experiences for education, health or entertainment involves multidisciplinary teams making design decisions across several areas. The goal of this paper is to present a classification schema that describes the design choices when constructing an AR interactive experience. Background: Existing extended reality schema often focuses on single dimensions of an AR experience, with limited attention to design choices. These schemata, combined with an analysis of a diverse range of AR applications, form the basis for the schema synthesized in this paper. Methodology: An extensive literature review and scoring of existing classifications were completed to enable a definition of seven design dimensions. To validate the design dimensions, the literature was mapped to the seven-design choice to represent opportunities when designing AR iterative experiences. Contribution: The classification scheme of seven dimensions can be applied to communicating design considerations and alternative design scenarios where teams of domain specialists need to collaborate to build AR experiences for a defined purpose. Findings: The dimensions of nature of reality, location (setting), feedback, objects, concepts explored, participant presence and interactive agency, and style describe features common to most AR experiences. Classification within each dimension facilitates ideation for novel experiences and proximity to neighbours recommends feasible implementation strategies. Recommendations for Practitioners: To support professionals, this paper presents a comprehensive classification schema and design rationale for AR. When designing an AR experience, the schema serves as a design template and is intended to ensure comprehensive discussion and decision making across the spectrum of design choices. Recommendations for Researchers: The classification schema presents a standardized and complete framework for the review of literature and AR applications that other researchers will benefit from to more readily identify relevant related work. Impact on Society: The potential of AR has not been fully realized. The classification scheme presented in this paper provides opportunities to deliberately design and evaluate novel forms of AR experience. Future Research: The classification schema can be extended to include explicit support for the design of virtual and extended reality applications.

Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Reality: Challenges and Research Directions

The sense of touch (haptics) has been applied in a few areas such as tele-haptics, tele-medicine, training, education, and entertainment. As of today, haptics is currently used and explored by researchers in more areas. These can span from both multi-disciplinary and even inter-disciplinary areas as well. The utilization of haptics is also enhanced with other forms of media such as audio, video, and smell. For example, haptic use is prevalent in virtual reality environments to increase the immersive experience for users. However, while there is significant progress pertaining to haptic interfaces throughout the years, there are still many challenges that limit this progression. Therefore, this review highlights haptic interfaces for virtual reality ranging from wearables, handhelds, encountered type, props and mid-air. We discuss and summarize these approaches and along with interaction domains such as skin receptors, object properties and force. Furthermore, design challenges for each interface are also highlighted along with existing research gaps.INDEX TERMS haptic interfaces, human-computer interaction, virtual reality.

“…Some researchers have proposed that by modeling and analyzing the object to be simulated, the shape and center of gravity data can be mapped to a simplified handle design to provide users with a more realistic object experience. For example, use some materials that are convenient to cut to make the shape, and use the counter-weight to place the corresponding center of gravity simulation position to get a similar experience [45].…”

Virtual reality (VR) technology can provide users with an immersive experience as if they are in the real world, which can be applied in the fields of entertainment, education and scientific research, etc. In order to improve the sense of presence and immersion in VR, the design of multimodal feedback is an important component. In particular, the simulation of weight of virtual objects poses many challenges due to the limitations of hardware and software. Many researchers focused on this issue in various ways. These methods are mainly divided into two categories: device-based simulation and software-based simulation. This paper investigates the focus of software-based simulation, particularly for the virtual feedback methods proposed by researchers in recent years. We introduce the background of these proposed methods, technical implementation principles, application scenarios, the advantages and disadvantages of these simulation methods, and the evaluation criteria. We also propose the future challenges and the development of simulation methods for weight perception of virtual objects in VR.
