Abstract :
This paper proposes collocated after action review (AAR) of training experiences. Through mixed reality (MR), collocated AAR allows users to review past training experiences in situ with the userpsilas current, real-world experience. MR enables a user-controlled egocentric viewpoint, a visual overlay of virtual information, and playback of recorded training experiences collocated with the userpsilas current experience. Collocated AAR presents novel challenges for MR, such as collocating time, interactions, and visualizations of previous and current experiences. We created a collocated AAR system for anesthesia education, the augmented anesthesia machine visualization and interactive debriefing system (AAMVID). The system was evaluated in two studies by students (n=19) and educators (n=3). The results demonstrate how collocated AAR systems such as AAMVID can: (1) effectively direct student attention and interaction during AAR and (2) provide novel visualizations of aggregate student performance and insight into student understanding for educators.
