Designing Interaction Space for Mixed Reality Systems

IRVO: an Interaction Model for designing Collaborative Mixed Reality systems

This paper presents an interaction model adapted to mixed reality environments known as IRVO (Interacting with Real and Virtual Objects). IRVO aims at modeling the interaction between one or more users and the Mixed Reality system by representing explicitly the objects and tools involved and their relationship. IRVO covers the design phase of the life cycle and models the intended use of the sy...

Pushing Avatars Around: A Mixed Reality Table Soccer Game

As virtual environments become more widely adopted for different tasks, it is critical that we develop techniques for designing spaces and interfaces that clearly suggest certain kinds of behavior for users, both in virtual and environments and for people who interact with a virtual environment through a mixed reality boundary. To explore these issues, we designed and deployed a mixed reality t...

Design A Situated Learning Environment Using Mixed Reality Technology - A Case Study

Mixed Reality (MR) is one of the newest technologies explored in education. It promises the potential to promote teaching and learning and making learners’ experience more “engaging”. However, there still lack of research on designing a virtual learning environment using MR technology. In this paper, we describe the Mixed Reality technology, the characteristics of situated learning as instructi...

Introducing Pattern Cards for Mixed Reality Game Design

This paper describes a set of playing cards creating a pattern language for designing Mixed Reality games. The deck of cards was used in a two-week workshop with users inexperienced in the field of Mixed Reality game design. The paper talks about the design process that led to the current version of the cards and presents positive initial findings resulting from the workshop regarding the appli...
