Abstract
In this research, we explore how different types of augmented gesture communication cues can be used under different view sharing techniques in a remote collaboration system. In a pilot study, we compared four conditions: (1) Pointers on Still Image, (2) Pointers on Live Video, (3) Annotation on Still Image, and (4) Annotation on Live Video. Through this study, we found three results. First, users collaborate more efficiently using annotation cues than pointer cues for communicating object position and orientation information. Second, live video becomes more important when quick feedback is needed. Third, the type of gesture cue has more influence on performance and user preference than the type of view sharing method.

Real-time Visual Representations for Mixed Reality Remote Collaboration
Gao L; Bai H; Piumsomboon T; Lee G; Lindeman RW; Billinghurst, Mark (2017)We present a prototype Mixed Reality (MR) system with a hybrid interface to support remote collaboration between a local worker and a remote expert in a large-scale work space. By combining a low-resolution 3D point-cloud ... -
A Projected Augmented Reality System for Remote Collaboration
Tait, M.; Tsai, T.; Sakata, N.; Billinghurst, Mark; Vartiainen, E. (University of Canterbury. Electrical and Computer EngineeringUniversity of Canterbury. Human Interface Technology Laboratory, 2013)This paper describes an AR system for remote collaboration using a captured 3D model of the local user’s scene. In the system a remote user can manipulate the scene independently of the view of the local user and add ... -
