User Studies on Highlighting Techniques for Object Selection in Extended Reality

Summary

Extended Reality (XR) has shown the potential to solve complex remote support tasks. Despite the promise evidence suggests that: accurate, natural, and easy object referencing/ pointing during remote support tasks for object selection in Extended Reality (XR) is still a major issue due to object reference misalignment with the change of perspective of novice users, additionally, it can also result in annotations piling up a visual clutter for novice users.

One critical aspect of this is how to highlight to objects that need to be selected. By pursuing our objectives we aim to contribute valuable insights into the design of better Extended Reality applications.
