Collaborating Across Realities: Analytical Lenses for Understanding Dyadic Collaboration in Transitional Interfaces

Reality Stack I/O: A Versatile and Modular Framework for Simplifying and Unifying XR Applications and Research

“…Our approach enhances cross-device and cross-platform compatibility, expedites integration, and allows developers to focus more on building XR experiences rather than device integration. We offer a publicly available Unity reference implementation 8 accompanied by various examples.…”

“…In particular, cross-reality (CR), also called transitional interfaces (TI), supports simultaneous use and transition between different points on the reality-virtuality continuum [7,9]. CR/TI are promising approaches for understanding and exploring spatial data and related information, that need to be explored in HCI research [1,3,8].…”

“…For example, Schröder et al [8] presented analytical lenses for understanding dyadic collaboration in transitional interfaces, Jetter et al [2] explored VR as a design tool for sketching and simulating spatially-aware interactive spaces, and Kern et al [5] investigated controller-based virtual tap-and swipe keyboards in VR and video see-through (VST) AR.…”

“…Reality Stack is our vision to provide reusable and publicly available software components for XR applications and research. We offer a public Unity reference implementation 8 with examples.…”

Practice-informed Patterns for Organising Large Groups in Distributed Mixed Reality Collaboration

“…For example, largegroup collaboration with many-to-many participation and various roles may cater for multi-modal ways of joining and might create larger physical and/or digital spaces to house participants. While there are studies that examine many-to-many interactions in MR [33,59], multi-modal and mixed presence collaboration [28,52] or scaled spatial architecture [54], these evaluative studies either manage complexity by making participants co-located [33,54] or isolate a particular scale problem to evaluate [28,52].…”
