A Novel Concept using Mirror Displays for Ambient User Notifications

  • This paper presents a novel approach to notify users about tasks in their immediate environment. Our approach is consciously designed to be low-threshold, by using augmented mirror displays, no devices such as AR glasses or smartphones have to be worn or hold by the user. The mirror display allows people passing by to get awareness of which technical and non-technical objects that need attention in an unobtrusive way. These are conveyed visually in a uniform manner and can be easily observed by passing users. If the user decides to interact by slowing down or pausing, the display adapts to more detailed information about the augmented objects. Users can decide whether this is relevant to them or not. We present a novel interaction concept, several use cases, an implementation of our approach in a laboratory scenario and conduct a user study to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of our interaction concept. The results reveal a good performance of our system and based on this, open up new questions perspectives for futureThis paper presents a novel approach to notify users about tasks in their immediate environment.
