Mixed Reality (MR) technologies are increasingly adopted by enterprises to enhance remote collaboration, enabling users to share real-time views of their physical environments through head-mounted displays (HMDs). While MR spatial sharing…
Mixed reality (MR) technology development is now gaining momentum due to advances in computer vision, sensor fusion, and realistic display technologies. With most of the research and development focused on delivering the promise of MR,…
Healing Spaces proposes a new approach to multisensory interventions that show potential in ameliorating the behavioral and psychological symptoms of advanced dementia in older adults. Using smart technology, the project combines both…
Extended reality (XR) technology has the incredible potential to revolutionize mental health treatment and support, bringing a whole new dimension to the field. Through the use of immersive virtual and augmented reality experiences,…
Functional upper-limb prosthetic training can improve users performance in controlling prostheses and has been incorporated into occupational therapy for individuals in need. In recent years, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)…
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that significantly impacts motor and non-motor functions. There is currently no treatment that slows or stops neurodegeneration in PD. In this context, assistive technologies (ATs)…
This article investigates mixed reality (MR) to enhance human-robot collaboration (HRC). The proposed solution adopts MR as a communication layer to convey a mobile manipulator's intentions and upcoming actions to the humans with whom it…
Augmented Reality (AR) technologies hold immense potential for revolutionizing the way individuals with disabilities interact with the world. AR systems can provide real-time assistance and support by overlaying digital information over the…
Social participation is known to bring great benefits to the health and well-being of people as they age. From being in contact with others to engaging in group activities, keeping socially active can help slow down the effects of…
We design and evaluate a mixed reality real-time communication system for remote assistance during CPR emergencies. Our system allows an expert to guide a first responder, remotely, on how to give first aid. RGBD cameras capture a…
Alignment between real and virtual objects is a challenging task required for the deployment of Mixed Reality (MR) into manufacturing, medical, and construction applications. To face this challenge, a series of methods have been proposed.…
Physical skill acquisition, from sports techniques to surgical procedures, requires instruction and feedback. In the absence of a human expert, Physical Task Guidance (PTG) systems can offer a promising alternative. These systems integrate…
Augmented Reality (AR) solutions are providing tools that could improve applications in the medical and industrial fields. Augmentation can provide additional information in training, visualization, and work scenarios, to increase…
We present the design of a mixed reality (MR) telehealth training system that aims to close the gap between in-person and distance training and re-training for medical procedures. Our system uses real-time volumetric capture as a means for…
Mixed Reality (MR) integrates virtual objects with the real world, offering potential but raising concerns about misuse through dark patterns. This study explored the effects of four dark patterns, adapted from prior research, and applied…
Companion robots hold immense potential in providing emotional support to older adults in the rapidly aging world. However, questions have been raised regarding whether having a robotic companion benefits healthy older adults, how they…
This study demonstrates how anticipated and actual interactions shape the QE of SARs among older adults. The study consisted of two parts: an online survey to explore the anticipated interaction through video viewing of a SAR and an…
Wearable technology has significantly improved the quality of life for older adults, and the emergence of on-body, movable robots presents new opportunities to further enhance well-being. Yet, the interaction design for these robots remains…
In the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector, data extracted from building information modelling (BIM) can be used to create a digital twin (DT). The algorithms of a BIM-based DT can facilitate the retrieval of…
Augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) are technologies of great potential due to the engaging and enriching experiences they are capable of providing. Their use is rapidly increasing in diverse fields such as…
