OCCUPATIONAL APPLICATIONSCollaboration is crucial in safety-critical operations like ship navigation. Augmented Reality (AR) has the potential to facilitate collaboration through supporting communication, team situation awareness, and team decision-making. Results from our study, based on a prototype test, suggest AR features to facilitate collaboration during ship navigation. Situation awareness can be improved by supporting information gathering, getting an overview of the surroundings, mental mapping between 2D charts and the outside world, and head-up time with point of interest (POI) pins. Multi-user AR can facilitate visual communication for team situation awareness by sharing crosshairs and POI pin highlights. Team decision-making depends on team situation awareness. Other advantages include operator mobility and simplicity. Disadvantages include overreliance, cognitive overload, and medium usability and technology acceptance. AR may be particularly useful in time-critical operations in medium-busy waterways. With further development in accuracy, usability, and unobtrusiveness, AR can facilitate collaboration and increase safety in ship navigation.
职业应用
协作在船舶导航等安全关键操作中至关重要。增强现实(AR)有潜力通过支持通信、团队态势感知和团队决策来促进协作。我们基于原型测试的研究结果表明,AR功能有助于在船舶导航期间促进协作。通过支持信息收集、了解周围环境概况、在二维海图与外部世界之间进行心理映射以及使用兴趣点(POI)标记实现抬头查看时间,可以提高态势感知能力。多用户AR通过共享十字准线和POI标记亮点,可促进用于团队态势感知的视觉通信。团队决策取决于团队态势感知。其他优点包括操作员的移动性和简便性。缺点包括过度依赖、认知过载以及中等的可用性和技术接受度。AR在中等繁忙水道的时间关键操作中可能特别有用。随着在准确性、可用性和不引人注意性方面的进一步发展,AR可以促进船舶导航中的协作并提高安全性。
