Abstract

We introduce a multi-user augmented reality system to support collaboration of participants in research, presentation and education. Our system "Studierstube" presents three-dimensional stereoscopic images simultaneously to a group of users wearing see-through head mounted displays. The displays do not affect natural communication and interaction, making working together very effective. Users see the same spatially aligned model, but can independently control their viewpoint and different layers of the data to be displayed.
