This study considers modern surgical navigation systems based on augmented reality technologies. Augmented reality glasses are used to construct holograms of the patients organs from MRI and CT data, subsequently transmitted to the glasses. This, in addition to seeing the actual patient, the surgeon gains visualization inside the patients body (bones, soft tissues, blood vessels, etc.). The solutions developed at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University allow reducing the invasiveness of the procedure and preserving healthy tissues. This also improves the navigation process, making it easier to estimate the location and size of the tumor to be removed. We describe the application of developed systems to different types of surgical operations (removal of a malignant brain tumor, removal of a cyst of the cervical spine). We consider the specifics of novel navigation systems designed for anesthesia, for endoscopic operations. Furthermore, we discuss the construction of novel visualization systems for ultrasound machines. Our findings indicate that the technologies proposed show potential for telemedicine.

We present an early study designed to analyze how city planning and the health of senior citizens can benefit from the use of augmented reality (AR) using Microsofts HoloLens. We also explore whether AR and VR can be used to help city planners receiv e real-time feedback from citizens, such as the elderly, on virtual plans, allowing for informed decisions to be made before any construction begins.
With the development of advanced communication technology, connected vehicles become increasingly popular in our transportation systems, which can conduct cooperative maneuvers with each other as well as road entities through vehicle-to-everything co mmunication. A lot of research interests have been drawn to other building blocks of a connected vehicle system, such as communication, planning, and control. However, less research studies were focused on the human-machine cooperation and interface, namely how to visualize the guidance information to the driver as an advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS). In this study, we propose an augmented reality (AR)-based ADAS, which visualizes the guidance information calculated cooperatively by multiple connected vehicles. An unsignalized intersection scenario is adopted as the use case of this system, where the driver can drive the connected vehicle crossing the intersection under the AR guidance, without any full stop at the intersection. A simulation environment is built in Unity game engine based on the road network of San Francisco, and human-in-the-loop (HITL) simulation is conducted to validate the effectiveness of our proposed system regarding travel time and energy consumption.
Short-form digital storytelling has become a popular medium for millions of people to express themselves. Traditionally, this medium uses primarily 2D media such as text (e.g., memes), images (e.g., Instagram), gifs (e.g., Giphy), and videos (e.g., T ikTok, Snapchat). To expand the modalities from 2D to 3D media, we present SceneAR, a smartphone application for creating sequential scene-based micro narratives in augmented reality (AR). What sets SceneAR apart from prior work is the ability to share the scene-based stories as AR content -- no longer limited to sharing images or videos, these narratives can now be experienced in peoples own physical environments. Additionally, SceneAR affords users the ability to remix AR, empowering them to build-upon others creations collectively. We asked 18 people to use SceneAR in a 3-day study. Based on user interviews, analysis of screen recordings, and the stories they created, we extracted three themes. From those themes and the study overall, we derived six strategies for designers interested in supporting short-form AR narratives.
We introduce Blocks, a mobile application that enables people to co-create AR structures that persist in the physical environment. Using Blocks, end users can collaborate synchronously or asynchronously, whether they are colocated or remote. Addition ally, the AR structures can be tied to a physical location or can be accessed from anywhere. We evaluated how people used Blocks through a series of lab and field deployment studies with over 160 participants, and explored the interplay between two collaborative dimensions: space and time. We found that participants preferred creating structures synchronously with colocated collaborators. Additionally, they were most active when they created structures that were not restricted by time or place. Unlike most of todays AR experiences, which focus on content consumption, this work outlines new design opportunities for persistent and collaborative AR experiences that empower anyone to collaborate and create AR content.
We present a congestion-aware routing solution for indoor evacuation, which produces real-time individual-customized evacuation routes among multiple destinations while keeping tracks of all evacuees locations. A population density map, obtained on-t he-fly by aggregating locations of evacuees from user-end Augmented Reality (AR) devices, is used to model the congestion distribution inside a building. To efficiently search the evacuation route among all destinations, a variant of A* algorithm is devised to obtain the optimal solution in a single pass. In a series of simulated studies, we show that the proposed algorithm is more computationally optimized compared to classic path planning algorithms; it generates a more time-efficient evacuation route for each individual that minimizes the overall congestion. A complete system using AR devices is implemented for a pilot study in real-world environments, demonstrating the efficacy of the proposed approach.
