AR Embedded Visualization & AI Reliance

Overview

This project studies how embedded AR visualizations influence human reliance on AI during spatial decision-making tasks.

Research Questions

  • Does AR X-Ray guidance improve calibration of trust compared with 2D minimaps?
  • How does visualization placement affect user confidence and task performance?
  • What interaction patterns indicate over-reliance versus appropriate reliance?

AR study setup

Method

Participants completed spatial tasks under multiple visualization conditions. We measured task accuracy, response time, confidence, and reliance behavior.

Outcome

The work provides actionable guidance for designing AR assistance that encourages appropriate reliance on AI rather than blind acceptance.
