ARTryOn: HAT2

For Augmented Reality (AR) try-on experience, one of the key aspects is the interaction design that helps to deliver a smooth and immersive experience. In this study, we compared two interaction design for the AR Try-on experience: AR HAT2, an AR interface that uses mid-air hand gestures to select virtual items, to change the color and to adjust the size, and a traditional touch-based interface that uses a list of buttons on the touchscreens. The results of our comparative evaluation showed that the usage of mid-air gestures is intuitive and comfortable for most users, and especially advantageous with a far-away screen. Our findings can be useful for AR fitting room developers and other AR practitioners.
