Abstract:
Research into Augmented Reality (AR) devices for professional use has largely focused on hand-held devices and Head Mounted Displays (HMDs). There are advantages and disadvantages to both solutions, and which is used will largely depend on the context of use. In this paper, we present an outdoor user evaluation of an alternative wearable AR device mounted on the forearm to allow hands free movement. Findings on the strengths and weaknesses of the system along with user recommendations were obtained, and serve as an indicator to its potential applicability for wider use, particularly in comparison with a hands free HMD solution.
