Ghost-hack AR

Abstract

We present Ghost-Hack AR, an approach that enhances network communication with a simple interaction technique by which remote users can change telepresence systems depending on the situation and purpose. Various telepresence systems, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, support communication between remote and local users. However, since remote users of conventional systems primarily use one telepresence system to communicate with local users, their activities and interactions depend on the system and are thus limited. By contrast, our system allows remote users to change telepresence systems via a simple interaction technique in order to reap the benefits of each system.
