[DC] Improving Multi-User Interaction for Mixed Reality Telecollaboration
Faisal Zaman · 2022 IEEE Conference on Virtual Reality and 3D User Interfaces Abstracts and Workshops (VRW) · 2022
Mixed reality (MR) approaches offer merging of real and virtual worlds to create new environments and visualizations for real-time interaction. Existing MR systems, however, do not utilise user real environment, lack detail in dynamic environments, and often lack multi-user capabilities. This research focuses on exploring multiuser aspects of immersive collaboration, where an arbitrary number of co-located and remotely located users can collaborate in a single or merged collaborative MR space. The aim is to enable users to experience VR/AR together, irrespective of the type of HMD, and facilitate users with their collaborative tasks. The main goal is to develop an immersive collaboration platform in which users can utilize the space around them and at the same time collaborate and switch between different perspectives of other co-located and remote users.
