Abstract

This chapter contends that the Internet of Things (IoT), which consists of technologies for networked embedded devices and decentralized software applications, must also have rich interface solutions that both inform and engage its users. This is a new frontier in IoT human-computer interaction (HCI), and meeting these challenges requires interface designs that present information to users in a context-sensitive manner, which can inform users while allowing them to remain engaged in their environmental tasks. Mixed reality, combined with context sensing, also known as X-Reality (XR), allows the display of 3D content in situ, providing novel interface design possibilities for IoT edge devices. These XR-IoT (XRI) hybrid systems can become more personal, immersive, embedded, information-rich, decentralized, multiuser, and agent-driven. This repositions the IoT from the passive background embedded environment into active, engaging, foreground information infrastructures. This chapter highlights the challenges and considerations to meet the convergence of the IoT with mixed reality, toward a transformation of IoT devices into hybrid virtual and physical objects that adapt to their user’s context, and presents information in engaging ways. Such a merger will contribute to the IoT broadly and impact HCI across existing and future IoT deployments.
