AR Interfaces for Emotional Support

This work explores ways we can leverage augmented reality systems to create meaningful and emotional interactions with physical objects. We explore how hand and eye interactions can be used to trigger meaningful sensory feedback to the user. These investigations show how AR interfaces can interpret the actions of a user to shift the primary purpose of a physical object for emotional support.
