Original Abstract Submitted
a digital instrument tutorial system is introduced herein, which enables the authoring and provision of augmented reality (ar) tutorials for operating digital instruments. the digital instrument tutorial system provides an automated authoring workflow for users (e.g., an expert user and/or author) to create sequential ar tutorials for digital instruments by intuitive embodied demonstration. the digital instrument tutorial system advantageously utilizes a multimodal approach that combines finger pressure and gesture tracking to translate the author's operations into ar visualizations. aside from recording a tutorial for a task, the digital instrument tutorial system also provides an access mode, in which the ar tutorial is provided to a novice user.
