Cognitive Load bei Augmented Reality Nutzung

Background:

While the numerous advantages of using Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are often discussed, it is becoming increasingly necessary to address the negative aspects. To understand the aspect of mental overload, we are conducting an Augmented Reality experiment involving an assembly process. Various parameters, such as eye-tracking and performance data, will be recorded and compared. The dataset will be used in this Master's thesis for a machine learning algorithm that predicts cognitive load based on recorded pupil data, heart rate variability, and electrodermal activity (EDA).
