Managing Information Overload in Large-Scale Distributed Mixed-Reality Meetings

Abstract

Large-scale distributed mixed-reality meetings involve many people and their audiovisual representations. These collaborative environments can introduce challenges such as sensory overload, cognitive strain, and social fatigue. In this paper, we discuss how the unique adaptability of Mixed Reality can be leveraged to weaken these stressors by managing information overload.
