Abstract

The interaction paradigm has changed with the emerging technology, mobile augmented reality, and spatial awareness mobile device. The traditional way for designing a kitchen can cause mistake in measurement and user’s imagination is different from kitchen advisor’s sketch design due to limitation of human imagination. Using mobile augmented reality technology, the user can overlay the virtual kitchen outcome that could fit with the actual kitchen environment. Interaction technique is required in order to allow the user to change the characteristic of the virtual kitchen to suite their need. Thus, this paper is intended to propose the tangible and spatial awareness interaction techniques in the kitchen design authoring tool. A scoping review related to the previous research on tangible and spatial awareness interaction is presented in this paper. The proposed techniques were based on the review on the existing interaction technique and the interview section with the Malaysian kitchen designer by understanding the kitchen design elements and flow. The proposed techniques will be further improved by going through the heuristic evaluation with the augmented reality expert.

Highlights

  • Augmented Reality (AR) receives a lot of attention globally

  • The third part is the reviews of the studies related to tangible and spatial awareness interaction technique to explore their possibilities in kitchen design Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) authoring tool

  • 20 articles have been selected from the SCOPUS database and reviewed in which 60% are in tangible interaction technique and 40% are related to spatial awareness interaction technique

Summary

Introduction

Augmented Reality (AR) receives a lot of attention globally. There are a lot of efforts in research and ongoing development in this area as it is the newest technology. Based on the previous finding, AR offers many advantages in digital architectural design and construction fields [1] It is a new design approach for interior design, where AR environment is able to display virtual furniture and it can be modified in real-time where the user can directly see the virtual outcome of the design. The interaction with the augmented reality environment plays an important role in this authoring type application. On the tangible and spatial awareness technique in order to identify and design a new interaction technique for the kitchen design in MAR environment. The third part is the reviews of the studies related to tangible and spatial awareness interaction technique to explore their possibilities in kitchen design MAR authoring tool. The fifth part of the paper discusses the proposed tangible and spatial awareness interaction techniques in mobile augmented reality setting. The conclusion and the future works are in the final part of the paper
