| Research Abstract |
In natural history museums, fossil skeletons leave an impression for visitors, however, observing fossils is not easy for novices. We held some programs with mixed reality exhibition in the National Museum of Nature and Science in Tokyo and the others. In this program, the user utilizes a binocular hand-held display (HHD) to observe the skeleton of a dinosaur. The exhibition presents a fundamental explanation of dinosaur bone structure. In the final experiment, a guide function was developed to urge the user to adjust to the appropriate position to view the content. The HHD position data compared the results with the guide function to those without the guide function. According to the results, users' behaviors differed significantly; the guide function effect was confirmed.
