Abstract [en]
The advent of augmented reality (AR) is reshaping the way people experience physical and virtual environments, from observation to immersion. Growing interest in adopting AR provides opportunities for immersive learning, upskilling, and renewal. However, uncertainties exist in how to maneuver a transition toward making use of this technology through systematic integration. Due to the turmoil caused by the global pandemic health crisis, implementation of AR now faces urgency in minimizing adoption thresholds and establishing a more systematic escalation approach. This paper investigates the characteristics of such learning approaches and examines the integration of AR with customized progression. Two solution suppliers were investigated to uncover the integration process of AR, which, to the best of our knowledge, is scarcely explored in existing research. This study reveals that a balanced escalation of user-centric learning activities, i.e., an onboarding process, harmonizes anticipated cognition levels for a designated AR application tool.
