“…Our future work will aim to manipulate the conversational scaffolds in the context of guided walking tours augmented with digital content, but designed in accordance with guidelines for reducing cognitive load from the cognitive theory of multimedia learning (Mayer & Moreno, 2003). Prior research suggests that this approach may result in increased student performance on AR lessons over control conditions (Yim & Seong, 2010). Furthermore, design guidelines to reduce cognitive load in AR-based interfaces have been shown to reduce divided attention-related issues in a range of different tasks, including but not limited to driving with AR windshield displays (Kim & Dey, 2009), medical procedures (Klatzky, Wu, Shelton, & Stetten, 2008) and assembly tasks (Tang, Owen, Biocca, & Mou, 2003).…”

“…Prior studies have shown that increased presence, or a sense of the realism of the AR display, under different augmented reality devices is associated to lower cognitive load when learning chemistry (Chen, Wang, & Chiang, ). Furthermore, learner motivation and interest typically increases in immersive environments, leading to increased levels of interaction, immersion and imagination, which are found to promote collaborative learning (Huang, Rauch, & Liaw, ) and learning efficiency (Yim & Seong, ). A major advantage of virtual immersive experiences is to promote the subjective impression that learning is situated in a comprehensive and realistic experience (Dede, ).…”

The purpose of this study is to experimentally manipulate discourse processes hypothesized to impact the emotions students experience when interacting with handheld augmented reality devices in informal learning settings. Research conducted in the field is often limited by practical constraints, requiring heavy investments in time and resources to collect data from large samples of students. To demonstrate the feasibility of our proposed method, a guided walking tour with 60 students using a location‐based augmented reality app was simulated in the context of a controlled laboratory setting. The difference between groups of students clustered into distinct profiles of positive and negative self‐reported emotions was attributed to patterns in the mined dialog between students and tour guide. Furthermore, student engagement predicted the ability to recall topics covered in the tour. We discuss the implications and directions for future research in tour simulations conducted in a laboratory setting as a means to evaluate the role of mobile technologies in enhancing learning and desirable emotions.

“…Augmented reality enables users to visualize objects from the physical world and computer-generated virtual entities in the same environment through spatial and temporal registration (Azuma, 1997). Augmented reality has been widely explored for its potential applications in education and training (Klatzky, Wu, Shelton, &Stetten, 2008;Vilkoniene, 2009;Yim &Seong, 2010). Moreover, learning using AR has improved learners' motivation and efficiency (Dunleavy, Dede, &Mitchell, 2009;Huang, Rauch, &Liaw, 2010;Yim &Seong, 2010).…”

Conventional work posture training tools included pamphlets, one-time training orientation, and/or videos. These tools did not always yield satisfactory training outcomes, and the incident rate of work-related musculoskeletal disorders did not substantially lower. In this research, modern augmented reality (AR) technology was leveraged to deliver interactive, holistic, whole-body visual information to convey safe work postures. The developmental procedure followed DMAIC by first defining specifications of training content, which led to the development of the training tool, including 3D reconstruction of a virtual instructor and building of user interface based on user-centered framework. This AR training tool was measured and analyzed through usability evaluation, and quantitative and qualitative data were obtained for cross-validation and usability issue source identification. Findings revealed the utility of 3D reconstruction of a virtual instructor and practicality of adopting conventional usability evaluation method for AR user interface usability evaluation. Feedback from the usability evaluation via questionnaire, think aloud, and post-task open-ended responses are employed to iteratively design the next version of the AR posture training tool.

“…Augmented reality has also been explored as an emerging communication tool for planning, worker training, and evacuation of nuclear facilities (Yim and Seong, 2010;Tsai et al, 2013;Johnsen and Mark, 2014;Sørensen, 2014). In particular, augmented reality-enhanced instructions are used for more effective training and the optimum amount of information for a trainee to learn more effectively was determined for training a novice nuclear facility operator (Yim and Seong, 2010). In another study, a practice/simulated evacuation from a nuclear power plant was performed.…”

This work presents a novel, comprehensive framework that leverages emerging augmented reality headset technology to enable smart nuclear industrial infrastructure that a human can easily interact with to improve their performance in terms of safety, security, and productivity. Nuclear industrial operations require some of the most complicated infrastructure that must be managed today. Nuclear infrastructure and their associated industrial operations typically features stringent requirements associated with seismic, personnel management (e.g., access control, equipment access), safety (e.g., radiation, criticality, mechanical, electrical, spark, and chemical hazards), security (cyber/physical), and sometimes international treaties for nuclear non-proliferation. Furthermore, a wide variety of manufacturing and maintenance operations take place within these facilities further complicating their management. Nuclear facilities require very thorough and stringent documentation of the operations occurring within these facilities as well as maintaining a tight chain-of-custody for the materials being stored within the facility. The emergence of augmented reality and a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) devices offers a possible solution to help mitigate these challenges. This work provides a demonstration of a prototype smart nuclear infrastructure system that leverages augmented reality to illustrate the advantages of this system. It will also present example augmented reality tools that can be leveraged to create the next generation of smart nuclear infrastructure. The discussion will layout future directions of research for this class of work.
