Implementing an interactive mixed reality simulation system is an economical and risk‐free method for skill training. However, research to enhance the accuracy of mixed reality simulation has always been a challenge. One of the key indicators of a simulation's accuracy is the user's depth perception. Adding depth cues to the simulation scene can effectively increase the accuracy of depth perception. Therefore, in this study, we designed five depth cues to find the one most beneficial for depth perception: (1) depth bar, (2) location ball, (3) fixed window, (4) 3D wireframe, and (5) movable silhouettes. These depth cues were tested using an experimental system with two sets of experimental settings. The first experiment compared the five depth cues at five different viewing distances and showed that the movable silhouettes benefited depth perception accuracy the most. The second experiment compared depth perception accuracies among three different horizontal tilt settings, showing that depth perception accuracy is dependent on the horizontal tilt. Furthermore, different depth perception accuracies were obtained with and without depth cues, proving that the effects from the horizontal tilts were independent of depth cues. The results of these studies provide references for designing interactive mixed reality simulation systems.

“…Experiment 2 studied the influence of horizontal tilts of virtual objects on the users' depth perception. Previous studies indicated that spatial depth, as perceived by the human eye, is related to viewing distance 10,11 . Therefore, in Experiments 1 and 2, we set a variety of viewing distances.…”

“…However, the absolute errors grew with an increase in image distance. Similar findings were reported in the studies on perceptual judgements not only for augmented reality images [24] but also for real objects [2]. Generally, the accuracy of judgements on spatial relations between objects is high at close viewing distances and drops with the increase in distance [2,25].…”

Recent developments in three-dimensional image display technologies for augmentation of reality have led to a growing interest towards spatial perception research. Research in this domain aims to describe the quality of viewing experience and discover potential benefits and limitations of new visualisation approaches intended for use in professional capacities. Precise perception and interpretation of digital spatial information is crucial for decision making in many professional areas, such as healthcare, education, aerospace, and defence.Human spatial perception relies on a combination of multiple information sources -the so-called depth cues [1]. The differences in perception are related to the availability and weight of depth cues. Binocular depth cues (retinal disparity and vergence) ensure the most accurate judgements about spatial relations between objects in the near field, although their contribution to spatial perception decreases with an increase in viewing distance [1,2]. Besides the availability of depth cues, their consistency plays an important role. For instance, accommodation and vergence cues provide the same information about the depth of an object in natural viewing [3].Today, there are different types of display systems used for the three-dimensional presentation of information

“…A possible explanation is the lack of other concordant cues, such as texture and image size, in the demonstrated images as we aimed to investigate the effect of cues consistency related to different means of information visualization in respect to the display focal planes. Previous studies showed that adding a larger number of concordant cues to the displayed images might further improve the accuracy of spatial judgments in augmented reality ( Diaz, Walker, Szafir, & Szafir, 2017 ; Ping, Weng, Liu, & Wang, 2019 ), accelerate decision making ( Mather & Smith, 2004 ), and even mask the effect of vergence-accommodation conflict on performance accuracy at 1.0–2.5 m viewing distance ( Vienne et al, 2020 ).…”

When virtual and real worlds coexist: Visualization and visual system affect spatial performance in augmented reality

New visualization approaches are being actively developed aiming to mitigate the effect of vergence-accommodation conflict in stereoscopic augmented reality; however, high interindividual variability in spatial performance makes it difficult to predict user gain. To address this issue, we investigated the effects of consistent and inconsistent binocular and focus cues on perceptual matching in the stereoscopic environment of augmented reality using a head-mounted display that was driven in multifocal and single focal plane modes. Participants matched the distance of a real object with images projected at three viewing distances, concordant with the display focal planes when driven in the multifocal mode. As a result, consistency of depth cues facilitated faster perceptual judgments on spatial relations. Moreover, the individuals with mild binocular and accommodative disorders benefited from the visualization of information on the focal planes corresponding to image planes more than individuals with normal vision, which was reflected in performance accuracy. Because symptoms and complaints may be absent when the functionality of the sensorimotor system is reduced, the results indicate the need for a detailed assessment of visual functions in research on spatial performance. This study highlights that the development of a visualization system that reduces visual stress and improves user performance should be a priority for the successful implementation of augmented reality displays.
