Their session involves exploring several demos with different functionalities:
- Basic Navigation: Ge Li learns to use hand gestures – tapping a sphere on the left wrist and a cube on the right hand to hide/show elements.
- Physical Integration: They experiment with placing a virtual yellow bar on a real table, demonstrating how virtual objects can be anchored to physical spaces.
- Text Interaction:
- Ge Li learns to highlight text in different colors by pulling sentences out
- Uses virtual pens to annotate documents
- Changes highlight colors using color selectors
- Reference Cards: Ge Li tests moving virtual cards in 3D space, noting how easy and flexible it is to organize information spatially.
- Manuscript Panels: They explore a system where documents snap to predefined panels in the space.
- Environment Settings: They toggle between a gray space and a more realistic room-like environment, with Ge Li preferring the latter as “it looks familiar with reality.”
Toward the end, Ge Li reflects on the dimensional aspects of the system, noting how it transforms text from being linear to multidimensional. They speculate about potential applications: “We can take all this information, extract all the information from different dimensions. And then we kind of combine as we need it.” Ge Li wonders if organizing information in different spatial “columns” could help with clearer thinking and better information management.
