Beyond Glasses: Future Directions for XR Interactions within the Physical World
at CHI 2025 in Yokohama, Japan
Please join us for the 1st International Workshop on XR Interactions within
the Physical World (XR-Phy) at CHI 2025.
We invite researchers and practitioners to submit to our upcoming workshop,
"Beyond Glasses: Future Directions for XR Interactions within the Physical World".
As XR glasses become affordable, it is time to seek opportunities beyond the glasses. This workshop aims to gather the HCI community to discuss novel ideas that leverage the physical aspects of everyday interactions, utilizing modalities beyond the visual channel to enhance XR experiences.
Topics may include but are not limited to
Recent developments in XR-related technologies enable us to extend the use of XR beyond laboratory settings and, therefore, beyond the common paradigm of head-mounted displays (HMD) or AR glasses. As the industry is pushing XR glasses to become the next-generation computer interface and mobile phone replacement, we see an opportunity to reconsider the future of XR interfaces beyond just this form factor and explore whether new affordances can be leveraged. In fact, while glasses represent the most convenient and practical wearable interface, users remain limited to a specific set of displays, raising concerns about privacy, social acceptability, and overreliance on the visual channel. Conversely, we believe that there is an opportunity to leverage the physicality of the world, including the human body and the surrounding space, to create more engaging XR experiences. In this workshop, our goal is to gather fresh insights and perspectives from HCI researchers, practitioners, and professionals on strategies and techniques to enhance interactions in XR beyond the conventional glasses framework. We will bring together experienced academics and emerging researchers within the interdisciplinary field of HCI. We anticipate developing research pathways to leverage physicality to investigate possibilities and obstacles beyond XR glasses, ultimately shaping a new approach to engaging with XR.
