Designing interfaces for Mixed Reality (MR) applications when transitioning from Web/mobile/desktop platforms presents significant challenges. Transitioning to a 3D Augmented/Virtual Reality environment can complicate the design process. Current practices encompass various approaches, including direct interface translation and creating new versions. We devise a high-fidelity prototype for a multi-purpose Meta-UI tool that assists designers and developers in configuring the applications’ UI design for MR. To illustrate the proposal’s benefits, we demonstrate how our Meta-UI could transform the design of an educational platform dedicated to increasing sustainable ocean awareness. Furthermore, we recruited over 60 university students enrolled in Human-Computer Interaction classes to envision, sketch, and design UIs for their class projects, with our original prototype serving as a guiding framework while interacting with MR devices. The results revealed a decrease in difficulty when designing by using our prototype.

摘要

Designing interfaces for Mixed Reality (MR) applications when transitioning from Web/mobile/desktop platforms presents significant challenges. Transitioning to a 3D Augmented/Virtual Reality environment can complicate the design process. Current practices encompass various approaches, including direct interface translation and creating new versions. We devise a high-fidelity prototype for a multi-purpose Meta-UI tool that assists designers and developers in configuring the applications’ UI design for MR. To illustrate the proposal’s benefits, we demonstrate how our Meta-UI could transform the design of an educational platform dedicated to increasing sustainable ocean awareness. Furthermore, we recruited over 60 university students enrolled in Human-Computer Interaction classes to envision, sketch, and design UIs for their class projects, with our original prototype serving as a guiding framework while interacting with MR devices. The results revealed a decrease in difficulty when designing by using our prototype.
