Effects of Layer Partitioning in Collaborative 3D Visualizations

I came across some preliminary research on Asymmetric Reality and found the following mentioned studies:

• Previous studies mentioned:
  • The Two-User Responsive Workbench: Support for Collaboration Through Individual Views of a Shared Space
  • The Virtual Showcase
    • focusing on “view-dependent image presentation”
  • Collaborative 3D Visualizations of Geo-Spatial Information for Command and Control
    • emphasizing “view-dependent co-located visualization”

• While several methods have been proposed to support view-dependent co-located visualization in previous studies [5,6,7,8,12], only a few formal evaluations of their potential benefits have been conducted. In this paper, we present our initial research where we assess the effectiveness of layer partitioning in a collaborative spatial task.
