  1. In the present paper, we present a user study with an advanced-driver assistance system (ADAS) using augmented reality (AR) cues to highlight pedestrians and vehicles when approaching intersections of varying complexity. Our major goal is to understand the relationship between the presence and absence of AR, driver-initiated takeover rates and glance behavior when using a SAE Level 2 autonomous vehicle. Therefore, a user-study with eight participants on a medium-fidelity driving simulator was carried out. Overall, we found that AR cues can provide promising means to increase the system transparency, drivers’ situation awareness and trust in the system. Yet, we suggest that the dynamic glance allocation of attention during partially automated vehicles is still challenging for researchers as we still have much to understand and explore when AR cues become a distractor instead of an attention guider.

  2. The aim of this work is to examine how augmented reality (AR) head worn displays (HWDs) influence worker task performance in comparison to traditional paper blueprints when assembling three various sized wooden frame walls. In our study, 18 participants assembled three different sized frames using one of the three display conditions (conformal AR interface, tag-along AR interface, and paper blueprints). Results indicate that for large frame assembly, the conformal AR interface reduced assembly errors, yet there were no differences in assembly times between display conditions. Additionally, traditional paper blueprints resulted in significantly faster assembly time for small frame assembly.
