Affordance-based approach towards understanding user preconceptions of
XR-based technical instructions
Abstract
The TIER model is a designer tool for designing technical instructions
for extended reality (XR) environments. This article reports a pilot
study towards validating the model with user preconceptions towards
XR-based technical instructions. Understanding preconceptions is
important in user-centered design. The pilot test entails the
presentation of instructions for a LEGO construction task via video and
VR. The results indicate interest and willingness to test XR-based
solution, but reluctance for regular use. The TIER model showed how the
model supported the process of recognizing preconceptions and operated
as a tool for an organized design process of XR-based technical
instructions.
