Large shared displays, such as digital whiteboards, are useful for supporting co-located team collaborations by helping members perform cognitive tasks such as brainstorming, organizing ideas, and making comparisons. While recent…
In this chapter, we focus on two main categories of visual interaction: body gestures and gaze direction. Our focus on body gestures is motivated by research showing that gesture patterns often change during joint action tasks to become…
Virtual collaborative environment are 3D shared spaces in which people can work together. To collaborate through these systems, users must have a shared comprehension of the environment. The objective of this experimental study was to…
Automatic assessment and evaluation of team performance during collaborative tasks is key to the learning analytics and computer-supported cooperative work research. There is a growing interest in the use of gaze-oriented cues for…
The human gaze is an important cue to signal intention, attention, distraction, and the regions of interest in the immediate surroundings. Gaze tracking can transform how robots perceive, understand, and react to people, enabling new modes…
Establishing common ground and maintaining shared awareness amongst participants is a key challenge in collaborative visualization. For real-time collaboration, existing work has primarily focused on synchronizing constituent visualizations…
Gaze understanding unifies the detection of people, their gaze targets, and objects of interest into a single framework, offering critical insight into visual attention and intent estimation. Although prior research has modelled gaze cues…
The gaze of a person tends to reflect their interest. This work explores what happens when this statement is taken literally and applied to robots. Here we present a robot system that employs a moving robot head with a screen-based eye…
This study presents a framework for capturing human attention in the spatio-temporal domain using eye-tracking glasses. Attention mapping is a key technology for human perceptual activity analysis or Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) to support…
Human capabilities in understanding visual relations are far superior to those of AI systems, especially for previously unseen objects. For example, while AI systems struggle to determine whether two such objects are visually the same or…
Appearance-based gaze estimation, which uses only a regular camera to estimate human gaze, is important in various application fields. While the technique faces data bias issues, data collection protocol is often demanding, and collecting…
This research report explores the role of eye gaze in human-robot interactions and proposes a learning system for detecting objects gazed at by humans using solely visual feedback. The system leverages face detection, human attention…
Performing joint interaction requires constant mutual monitoring of own actions and their effects on the other's behaviour. Such an action-effect monitoring is boosted by social cues and might result in an increasing sense of agency. Joint…
In the evolving landscape of human-autonomy teaming (HAT), fostering effective collaboration and trust between human and autonomous agents is increasingly important. To explore this, we used the game Overcooked AI to create dynamic teaming…
Virtual Reality (VR) enables users to collaborate while exploring scenarios not realizable in the physical world. We propose CollabVR, a distributed multi-user collaboration environment, to explore how digital content improves expression…
Immersive technologies expand the potential for collaborative sense-making and visual analysis via head-worn displays (HWDs), offering customizable, high-resolution perspectives of a shared visualization space. In such an immersive…
Human eye gaze plays a significant role in many virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) applications, such as gaze-contingent rendering, gaze-based interaction, or eye-based activity recognition. However, prior works on gaze analysis and…
Successful learning depends on learners' ability to sustain attention, which is particularly challenging in online education due to limited teacher interaction. A potential indicator for attention is gaze synchrony, demonstrating predictive…
From smoothly pursuing moving objects to rapidly shifting gazes during visual search, humans employ a wide variety of eye movement strategies in different contexts. While eye movements provide a rich window into mental processes, building…
This paper proposes a novel approach to scaling distributed collaboration in mixed reality by virtualizing collaborative tasks as independent, installable environments. By mapping group activities into dedicated virtual spaces that adapt to…
