Space should help someone understand or act.

The research direction

Engelbart OS XR is a research project exploring an AR/VR interface for Engelbart OS and spatial approaches to understanding and interacting with work.

What the inquiry must establish

The proposed approach starts with what someone is trying to understand or do, then considers whether an AR/VR interface helps. One research direction is how spatial relationships could express the context around work without making the environment harder to read. A change in interface should still make it clear what an action means and whether it has actually changed the underlying system.

Research question

Where does space help the task? Where does it add effort?

Engelbart OS XR is a research project exploring an AR/VR interface for Engelbart OS and spatial approaches to understanding and interacting with work.

Stage 01

Begin with the task


The proposed approach starts with what someone is trying to understand or do, then considers whether an AR/VR interface helps.

Stage 02

Make context legible


One research direction is how spatial relationships could express the context around work without making the environment harder to read.

Stage 03

Keep actions understandable

A change in interface should still make it clear what an action means and whether it has actually changed the underlying system.

Evidence standard

What the evidence supports



Report the method, conditions and limits with any finding. The project remains a research direction until that evidence exists.

Research approach

Where does space help the task? Where does it add effort?

Research visual showing people, interfaces, and connected systems

Compare the task with the effort the interface adds.
