Abstract
This paper investigates how two different unique gaze visualizations (the head pointer(HP), eye gaze(EG)) affect table-size physical tasks in Mixed Reality (MR) remote collaboration. We developed a remote collaborative MR Platform which supports sharing of the remote expert’s HP and EG. The prototype was evaluated with a user study comparing two conditions: sharing HP and EG with respect to their effectiveness in the performance and quality of cooperation. There was a statistically significant difference between two conditions on the performance time, and HP is a good proxy for EG in remote collaboration.
