JackIn: integrating first-person view with out-of-body vision generation for human-human augmentation

Published:07 March 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

JackIn is a new human-human communication framework for connecting two or more people. With first-person view video streaming from a person (called Body) wearing a transparent head-mounted display and a head-mounted camera, the other person (called Ghost) participates in the shared first-person view. With JackIn, people's activities can be shared and assistance or guidance can be given through other peoples expertise. This can be applied to daily activities such as cooking lessons, shopping navigation, education in craft-work or electrical work, and sharing experiences of sporting and live events. For a better viewing experience with frist-person view, we developed the out-of-body view in which first-person images are integrated to construct a scene around a Body, and a Ghost can virtually control the viewpoint to look around the space surrounding the Body. We also developed a tele-pointing gesture interface. We conducted an experiment to evaluate how effective this framework is and found that Ghosts can understand the spatial situation of the Body.
