XR: Why Looking Beyond the Headset Matters
Abstract:
In many situations, measuring user activity solely within virtual environments is not sufficient. Using examples from medical simulation, we will demonstrate how real‑time signal processing enables the observation of individual and group activity beyond the headset in XR. By integrating metrics from Computer‑Supported Cooperative Learning (CSCL), Computer‑Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Human Factors, and Ergonomics, the system can assess (some of the) human activity, support situational awareness, and should be able to adapt its behavior accordingly.
