A Prototype Setup to Integrate the Physical Environment into Mobile Remote Collaboration

In the accompanying paper [1], we describe a framework and prototype implementation for unobtrusive mobile remote collaboration on tasks that involve the physical environment. Our system uses model-free, markerless visual tracking to facilitate decoupled, live updated views of the environment and world-stabilized annotations while supporting a moving camera and unknown, unprepared environments. We conducted a user study with 48 participants to evaluate our concept. In this demo, we will present our system prototype and the setup used in the user study: a remote expert instructs a local user to operate a mock-up airplane. Users will be able to try out our interface as well as the two interfaces used as baseline in the study.
