Challenges Using Head-Mounted Displays in Shared and Social Spaces
CHI'19 Extended Abstracts, May 4-9, 2019, Glasgow, Scotland UK

Everyday mobile usage of AR and VR Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs) is becoming a feasible consumerreality. The current research agenda for HMDs has a strong focus on technological impediments(e.g. latency, field of view, locomotion, tracking, input) as well as perceptual aspect (e.g. distancecompression, vergence-accomodation ). However, this ignores significant challenges in the usageand acceptability of HMDs in shared, social and public spaces. This workshop will explore these keychallenges of HMD usage in shared, social contexts; methods for tackling the virtual isolation of the VR/AR user and the exclusion of collocated others; the design of shared experiences in shared spaces;and the ethical implications of appropriating the environment and those within it.
