Exploring the Impact of Network Impairments on Remote Collaborative Augmented Reality Applications

Published:02 May 2019Publication History

ABSTRACT

Our research explores the impact of network impairments on remote augmented reality (AR) collaborative tasks, and possible strategies to improve user experience in these scenarios. Using a simple AR task, under a controlled network environment, our preliminary user study highlights the impact of network outages on user workload and experience, and how user roles and learning styles play a role in this regard.
