Abstract
In supra-adaptive logistics systems, operative workers must be able to quickly and precisely retrieve objects from large storage areas with minimal training. We explore concepts toward providing workers with location-based wayfinding and picking information on mobile and spatial displays, varying both visualization schemes (1D: textual descriptions, 2D: map-based overviews and 3D: AR-based arrows) and display devices (head-attached, hand-held and spatial displays). In this paper we describe the system and report on first user evaluations.
