Augmented reality has great potential for embedding data visualizations in the world around the user. While this can enhance users' understanding of their surroundings, it also bears the risk of overwhelming their senses with a barrage of information. In contrast, calm technologies aim to place information in the user's attentional periphery, minimizing cognitive load instead of demanding focused engagement. In this column, we explore how visualizations can be harmoniously integrated into our everyday life through augmented reality, progressing from visual analytics to ambient analytics.
翻译:增强现实在将数据可视化嵌入用户周围环境方面具有巨大潜力。虽然这能增强用户对所处环境的理解,但也存在因信息过载而淹没用户感知的风险。相比之下,静默技术旨在将信息置于用户的注意边缘,通过最小化认知负荷而非要求高度专注来达成信息传递。本文探讨如何通过增强现实将可视化技术和谐地融入日常生活,实现从可视分析到环境分析的发展路径。
