“…We address these gaps in knowledge in the use of mobile workspaces in transit by replicating real environments of different travel environments (cars, planes, trains and subways) in VR with simulated avatar passengers. VR has seen increasing use in the simulation of AR experiences for passengers [54], for example in airplane contexts [47] and for in-car windshield display design [22,28], with notable benefits in supporting controlled and safe evaluation of the passenger user experience [54]. In this work, we conducted a user study (N=20) that enabled users to create virtual workspaces by placing varying numbers of displays (1, 3 and 5) to better understand how the physical affordances of the different passenger contexts (cars, trains, planes and subway) impact the placement of these displays in simulated AR.…”

Passengers spend considerable periods of time in shared transit spaces, relying on smartphones and laptops for work. However, these displays are limited in size and ergonomics compared to typical multi-monitor setups used in the office, impairing productivity. Augmented Reality (AR) headsets could provide large, flexible virtual workspaces during travel, enabling passengers to work more efficiently. This paper investigates the factors affecting how passengers choose to layout virtual displays in car, train, subway and plane environments, studying the affordances of each mode of transport and the presence of others. Results from our experiment showed: significant usage of the physical environment to align displays; strong social effects meant avoiding placing displays over other passengers or their belongings; and use of displays for shielding oneself from others. Our findings show the unique challenges posed by the mode of transport and presence of others on the use of AR for mobile productivity in the future. .
