In addition, presenting visions of future applications is a way to configure users and define social worlds of technology use. We analyse 30 YouTube videos featuring augmented reality (AR) devices in industrial manufacturing and construction, to explore how these commercial videos situate AR technology and future users by showcasing techno-euphoric promises and imagined use cases. With a video analysis based on Grounded Theory and Situational Analysis, we untangle the promises of AR for manufacturing and construction work; second, we present two prevailing configurations of AR users: ‘experts in situ’ and ‘smart dummies’; and third, we discuss how YouTube videos put forward developmental expectations. In addition, we identify discrepancies between expectations and foreseeable requirements in construction work. Finally, our research could contribute to a more holistic understanding of workplaces and socially robust AR applications. }, author = {Wortmeier, Ann-Kathrin and Calepso, Aimée Sousa and Kropp, Cordula and Sedlmair, Michael and Weiskopf, Daniel}, doi = {10.1080/0144929X.2022.2163693}, eprint = {https://doi.org/10.1080/0144929X.2022.2163693}, journal = {Behaviour \& Information Technology}, month = {January}, number = 0, pages = {1-16}, publisher = {Taylor & Francis}, title = {Configuring augmented reality users: analysing YouTube commercials to understand industry expectations}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1080/0144929X.2022.2163693 }, volume = 0, year = 2023 }

The architecture, engineering, and construction industry is facing the challenge that it needs to substantially increase its productivity, let alone the quality of buildings of the future. In this article, we discuss these challenges in more detail, focusing on how digitization can facilitate this transformation of the industry, and link them to opportunities for visualization and augmented reality research.

  @article{Fleck2022-03-07RagRu-56856, abstract = {We present RagRug, an open-source toolkit for situated analytics. The abilities of RagRug go beyond previous immersive analytics toolkits by focusing on specific requirements emerging when using augmented reality (AR) rather than virtual reality. RagRug combines state of the art visual encoding capabilities with a comprehensive physical-virtual model, which lets application developers systematically describe the physical objects in the real world and their role in AR. We connect AR visualization with data streams from the Internet of Things using distributed dataflow. To this aim, we use reactive programming patterns so that visualizations become context-aware, i.e., they adapt to events coming in from the environment. The resulting authoring system is low-code; it emphasises describing the physical and the virtual world and the dataflow between the elements contained therein. We describe the technical design and implementation of RagRug, and report on five example applications illustrating the toolkit's abilities. }, author = {Fleck, Philipp and Sousa Calepso, Aimée and Hubenschmid, Sebastian and Sedlmair, Michael and Schmalstieg, Dieter}, doi = {10.1109/TVCG.2022.3157058}, issn = {1077-2626}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics}, title = {RagRug: A Toolkit for Situated Analytics}, url = {https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35254986/}, year = 2022 }

  @preprint{sousacalepso2022cardlearner, abstract = {Augmented reality (AR) has a diverse range of applications, including language teaching. When studying a foreign language, one of the biggest challenges learners face is memorizing new vocabulary. While augmented holograms are a promising means of supporting this memorization process, few studies have explored their potential in the language learning context. We demonstrate the possibility of using flashcard along with an expressive holographic agent on vocabulary learning. Users scan a flashcard and play an animation that is connected with an emotion related to the word they are seeing. Our goal is to propose an alternative to the traditional use of flashcards, and also introduce another way of using AR in the association process.}, author = {Sousa Calepso, Aimée and Hube, Natalie and Berenguel Senn, Noah and Brandt, Vincent and Sedlmair, Michael}, publisher = {ACM}, title = {cARdLearner: Using expressive Virtual Agents when learning vocabulary in Augmented Reality}, year = 2022 }

Therefore, we want to demonstrate a serious game to help the players understand these measures better and show them why they are still necessary. The player of the game has to avoid other agents to keep their risk of a COVID-19 infection low. The game uses Virtual Reality through a Head-Mounted-Display to deliver an immersive and enjoyable experience.

The users can also rearrange the data to narrow down the search and switch the attribute being displayed, e.g. temperature, stage visibility, exit access or Wi-Fi signal.
