A Cognitive Study on the Effectiveness of an Augmented Virtuality-Based Collaborative Design Space

摘要

This paper presents one empirical study on an Augmented Virtuality (AV)-based virtual environment dedicated for remote collaboration. This AV-based system enables a remote designer to explore a virtual counterpart of a remote built environment that needs to be re-designed. Results of the study demonstrate that the AV system is effective and achieves good overall satisfaction, but involves some issues. Results also reveals that the participants all gain a similar sense in the AV environment as experienced in the real space.
