Abstract

VR/AR is currently trying to advance into various industries along with Metaverse as new technologies are being developed. As various problems that have previously been technical limitations have been resolved, content that the public can directly experience has been developed, and based on this, the public is responding. Among them, AR glasses, one of the representative fields, have not received much attention from the public due to the inconvenience of wearing them and the lack of GUI design. Therefore, in this study, we try to present and analyze the problems of AR glasses GUI. In particular, we design and propose a GUI optimized to utilize various functions, such as navigation guidance and surrounding information, which are typical contents of AR glasses. The recently released NReal glasses are attracting the public's attention as realistic content is applied, and they are easy to wear because they have the same shape as existing glasses. We compare NReal glass with other existing products and suggest a better design direction by identifying differences in GUI.
