In their research titled “Collaborative Interaction in Co-Located Two-User Scenarios”, Salzmann, Jacobs and Froehlich look into the aspect of using Immersive virtual environments especially in the assembly process in the automotive industry. The goal is to compare the outputs of the interactions of both co-located face-to-face and side-to-side users. The research is based on previous work done in collaborative virtual environments (CVEs) by authors such as Hinckley et al. and Margery et al. (Salzmann, Jacobs, and Froehlich). The researchers first studied the Side-by-Side Collaboration to identify whether a two user system had benefits compared to the single user systems. ...
