I am wondering if anyone has looked into design guidelines for AR displays? Some of the current AR designs I have seen are still focused on a desktop metaphor. My use of AR, e.g., HoloLens, leads me to believe that this is not the best approach. Have others looked into this?
Hello , you 've read this article?
I never read anything specific to use of Hololens .
Great question. I just came across Google's patent on this very intricate VR procedure/process. I am still trying to take in all its information, in comparison with existing medical cataract procedures. I am not a professional research in that field yet but I consider myself a 'consumer' that might in need of this advancement, in short term as well as when my vision's aging speeds up...
We are working on precisely this question; so, I will follow this thread closely. In fact, we want to work with NASA and Goddard. Will look for links to HoloLens.
Some data from a prototype:
Picture distace: 15m (fix)
Viewing angle 9°x4.5° corrisponds to 2250mm x 1200mm
Look-Down Angle: 2.7°
Look-Right Angle: 1.5°
Thanks for the responses. I use HoloLens as an example but I am actually interested in a more general sense. As I mentioned, believe that a desktop metaphor does not work with VR/AR designs. For example, when using VR/AR does it make sense to visualize folders and windows, does it make sense to have a mouse and require clicking motions by hand or with some 3rd party device. As a Human Factors Design Engineer working in the area of user experience I am keenly interested in what makes sense for the user.
Claudia - Thanks for the document link. I have not had a chance to look at it but it is high on my reading list
Craig - It is good to see a University exploring this. I look forward to seeing what your team discovers.
Somewhat related for anyone who already owns Hololens: We hada case of broken headband (it disconnected from the rest of the headset) and my colleague Ryan Lee fixed it with custome-made 3D printed clasp. Here is advice how to fix it with a help of 3D printer: Manual http://www.movesinstitute.org/~amela/Resources/Hololens-Repair-byRLee-NPS-2018-02-01.pdf, and STL files: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2778630 . Hope this helps.
