“…To this end, it is necessary to reduce the burden of annotating and conveying state feedback without interfering too much with the viewing experience. We draw on research on peripheral feedback [2], and consider GUI element transparency to lower interruptions which helps users keep awareness of the primary task [14,19].…”

With the increasing availability of head-mounted displays (HMDs) that show immersive 360 • VR content, it is important to understand to what extent these immersive experiences can evoke emotions. Typically to collect emotion ground truth labels, users rate videos through postexperience self-reports that are discrete in nature. However, post-stimuli self-reports are temporally imprecise, especially after watching 360 • videos. In this work, we design six continuous emotion annotation techniques for the Oculus Rift HMD aimed at minimizing workload and distraction. Based on a co-design session with six experts, we contribute HaloLight and DotSize, two continuous annotation methods deemed unobtrusive and easy to understand. We discuss the next challenges for evaluating the usability of these techniques, and reliability of continuous annotations.

“…See-through solutions and transparency issues have been studied in the design of computer displays. Lindlbauer et al (2016) investigated the influence of display transparency on task performance in the context of a customer service situation. The use of a transparent display did not undermine task performance.…”

“…More efficient future versions of mining machines with native see-through support would be able to utilize completely different design approaches. Lindlbauer et al (2016) studied the influence of display transparency on task performance in a service clerk scenario. In their study, the purpose of transparency differed from our study.…”

Virtual prototyping in the design of see-through features in mobile machinery

Limited visibility from a mobile machine cab can decrease task performance and lead to accidents. Therefore, it is important to consider visibility issues already in the design phase. This paper describes the use of virtual prototyping in the evaluation of see-through features of mobile work machines. The goal is to evaluate whether two different machine boom transparency levels have an effect on task performance. In addition, two alternative placements of overlaid information in the operators' field of view are assessed. A within-subject design was used in this study. Based on the results, there was no significant difference in performance between the transparency levels. However, the test participants preferred a transparency level of 70-80% (where 0% is completely opaque). Similar results were found with the placement of the overlaid information, which had no significant effect on task performance. Both placements, on the windscreen and on the tunnel wall, were equally favoured by the participants. The findings of this study contribute to the design of see-through features for mobile work machines. In addition, the study demonstrates the use of virtual prototyping in the design of novel features in human-machine systems.
