Abstract :
Enabling users to accurately perceive the correct depth of occluded objects is one of the major challenges in user interfaces for Mixed Reality (MR). In this paper, we present an evaluation of depth perception in handheld outdoor mixed reality environment in far-field distances through two photorealistic visualizations of occluded objects (X-ray and Melt) in the presence and absence of a depth cue.
