Exploring How Bi-Directional Augmented Reality Gaze Visualisation Influences Co-Located Symmetric Collaboration
ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 14 June 2021 doi: 10.3389/frvir.2021.697367 Eye See What You See: Exploring How Bi-Directional Augmented Reality Gaze Visualisation Influences Co-Located Symmetric Collaboration Allison Jing*, Kieran May, Gun Lee and Mark Billinghurst Empathic Computing Lab, Australian Research Centre for Interactive and Virtual Environment, STEM, The University of South Australia, Mawson Lakes, SA, Australia Gaze is one of the predominant communication cues and can provide valuable implicit information such as intention or focus when performing collaborative tasks. However, little research has been done on how virtual gaze cues combining spatial and temporal characteristics impact real-life physical tasks during face to face collaboration. In this study, we explore the effect of showing joint gaze interaction in an Augmented Reality (AR) interface by evaluating three bi-directional collaborative (BDC) gaze visualisations with three levels of gaze behaviours. Using three independent tasks, we found that all bi- directional collaborative BDC visualisations are rated significantly better at representing Edited by: joint attention and user intention compared to a non-collaborative (NC) condition, and Parinya Punpongsanon, hence are considered more engaging. The Laser Eye condition, spatially embodied with Osaka University, Japan gaze direction, is perceived significantly more effective as it encourages mutual gaze Reviewed by: awareness with a relatively low mental effort in a less constrained workspace. In addition, Naoya Isoyama, Nara Institute of Science and by offering additional virtual representation that compensates for verbal descriptions and Technology (NAIST), Japan hand pointing, BDC gaze visualisations can encourage more conscious use of gaze cues Thuong Hoang, Deakin University, Australia coupled with deictic references during co-located symmetric collaboration.

Real-Time 3D Graphic Augmentation of Therapeutic Music Sessions for People on the Autism Spectrum
Real-time 3D Graphic Augmentation of Therapeutic Music Sessions for People on the Autism Spectrum John Joseph McGowan Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Edinburgh Napier University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2018 Declaration I, John McGowan, declare that the work contained within this thesis has not been submitted for any other degree or professional qualification. Furthermore, the thesis is the result of the student’s own independent work. Published material associated with the thesis is detailed within the section on Associate Publications. Signed: Date: 12th October 2019 J J McGowan Abstract i Abstract This thesis looks at the requirements analysis, design, development and evaluation of an application, CymaSense, as a means of improving the communicative behaviours of autistic participants through therapeutic music sessions, via the addition of a visual modality. Autism spectrum condition (ASC) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder that can affect people in a number of ways, commonly through difficulties in communication. Interactive audio-visual feedback can be an effective way to enhance music therapy for people on the autism spectrum. A multi-sensory approach encourages musical engagement within clients, increasing levels of communication and social interaction beyond the sessions. Cymatics describes a resultant visualised geometry of vibration through a variety of mediums, typically through salt on a brass plate or via water. The research reported in this thesis focuses on how an interactive audio-visual application, based on Cymatics, might improve communication for people on the autism spectrum. A requirements analysis was conducted through interviews with four therapeutic music practitioners, aimed at identifying working practices with autistic clients.

Manipulation of 3D Objects in Immersive Virtual Environments
PhD Dissertation Proposal Manipulation of 3D Objects in Immersive Virtual Environments Daniel Filipe Martins Tavares Mendes [email protected] September 2015 Abstract Interactions within virtual environments (VE) often require manipu- lation of 3D virtual objects. For this purpose, several research have been carried out focusing on mouse, touch and gestural input. While exist- ing mid-air gestures in immersive VE (IVE) can oﬀer natural manipula- tions, mimicking interactions with physical objects, they cannot achieve the same levels of precision attained with mouse-based applications for computer-aided design (CAD). Following prevailing trends in previous research, such as degrees-of- freedom (DOF) separation, virtual widgets and scaled user motion, we intend to explore techniques for IVEs that combine the naturalness of mid-air gestures and the precision found in traditional CAD systems. In this document we survey and discuss the state-of-the-art in 3D object manipulation. With challenges identiﬁed, we present a research proposal and corresponding work plan. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 3 2 Background and Related Work 4 2.1 Key players . .4 2.2 Relevant events and journals . .5 2.3 Virtual Environments Overview . .7 2.4 Mouse and Keyboard based 3D Interaction . .9 2.5 3D Manipulation on Interactive Surfaces . 12 2.6 Touching Stereoscopic Tabletops . 16 2.7 Mid-Air Interactions . 17 2.8 Within Immersive Virtual Environments . 20 2.9 Discussion . 25 3 Research Proposal 28 3.1 Problem . 28 3.2 Hypotheses . 28 3.3 Objectives . 29 4 Preliminary Study of Mid-Air Manipulations 31 4.1 Implemented Techniques . 31 4.2 User Evaluation .
