Comparing Context -sharing Interfaces in XR Remote Collaboration

Abstract

eXtended Reality (XR) remote collaboration refers to working together on virtual data or real objects through various types of reality. To achieve a higher immersive collaboration experience, it is critical to converge heterogeneous realities in one shared workspace, where environmental changes are continuously updated. In this study, We extend our previous work, the Webized XR system, in terms of sharing the local environmental context. This system can provide three types of context -sharing interface (2D video, 360 video, and 3D reconstruction), delivering spatial information about the workspace. We also performed a pilot user study to measure the quality of this system.
