UXR-kit: An Ideation Kit and Method for Collaborative and User-Centered Design about Extended Reality systems.

Emerging kits and methods about Extended Reality (XR) systems are mainly centered on the prototyping phase. The ideation phase, which comes before prototyping, is currently still under-explored. In this work, we propose UXR-kit: a toolkit and a method for the co-design of ideas for XR systems. UXR-kit is based on an approach inspired by design studios and generative techniques and highlights the specificities of XR systems. Results from an experimental study suggest that UXR-kit allows the emergence of ideas for XR designs through both World-In-Miniature representations and first-person representations at scale 1:1.
