Remote collaboration normally requires workers to work in an unknown environment to conduct some unfamiliar tasks with the help of remote experts. Augmented Reality (AR) technology provides a feasible solution to enable a remote collaboration team to share a 3D view of the same workspace in real time synchronously from different locations, based on 3D tracking and reconstruction methods. One of the fundamental requirements for this type of collaborative AR system design is to help the remote expert to correctly understand the spatial relationship of the local worker’s environment and support efficient communication cues. This presentation provides a brief review of related research and then describes the work that has been done by the Envisage AR team. The basic principles of a AR remote collaboration system in a room-scale workspace is explored and discussed.
