Augmented Reality User Interface Evaluation – Performance Measurement of Hololens, Moverio and Mouse Input

摘要

Recent innovation in the field of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) has brought new devices on the market. Many industries see a big future in AR business and applications. The present research focuses on the user input performance of these AR-devices. This paper proposes an evaluation procedure using a server based input interface with a built-in assessment control. The evaluation is performed by test persons exposed to two AR devices: Microsoft Hololens and Epson Moverio BT-200. A conventional mouse input is used as a benchmark. The assessment reveals a trend of strength and weaknesses of each device and can orient developers to create more optimized AR experiences and improve the user experience.
