“…Figures [8][9][10][11] show the results of the Questionnaire. We conducted the Friedman test on each result, which showed significant differences in Question-A (chi-squared = 26.0, df = 4, p < 0.01), Question-B (chi-squared = 24.3, df = 4, p < 0.01), Question-C (chi-squared = 12.9, df = 4, p < 0.05), and Question-D (chi-squared = 9.74, df = 4, p < 0.05).…”

“…Other studies have found Electronics 2021, 10, 702 2 of 24 that users tend to focus primarily on the virtual objects, neglecting the physical world beyond them [7][8][9]. Syiem et al have focused on what users excessively pay attention to in the AR environment's virtual content [10]. They examined the attentional tunneling effect [11] and whether it is observed in users when introduced to modern AR technology in a museum setting.…”

Effects of Augmented Reality Object and Texture Presentation on Walking Behavior

Wearable devices that display visual augmented reality (AR) are now on the market, and we are becoming able to see AR displays on a daily basis. By being able to use AR displays in everyday environments, we can benefit from the ability to display AR objects in places where it has been difficult to place signs, to change the content of the display according to the user or time of day, and to display video. However, there has not been sufficient research on AR displays’ effect on users in everyday environments. In this study, we investigate how users are affected by AR displays. In this paper, we report our research results on the AR displays’ effect on the user’s walking behavior. We conducted two types of experiments—one on the effects of displaying AR objects on the user’s walking path, and the other on the effects of changing the floor texture by AR on the user’s walking behavior. As a result of the experiments, we found that the AR objects/textures affected the user’s walking behavior.

Attentional tunneling describes a phenomenon in Augmented Reality (AR) where users excessively focus on virtual content while neglecting their physical surroundings. This leads to the concern that users could neglect hazardous situations when using AR applications. However, studies have often confounded the role of the virtual content with the role of the associated task in inducing attentional tunneling. In this paper, we disentangle the impact of the associated task and of the virtual content on the attentional tunneling effect by measuring reaction times to events in two user studies. We found that presenting virtual content did not significantly increase user reaction times to events, but adding a task to the content did. This work contributes towards our understanding of the attentional tunneling effect on handheld AR devices, and highlights the need to consider both task and context when evaluating AR application usage.
