"Ghost engineer" sounds like AR skeuomorphism. Why have a ghost engineer showing you how to repair iMacs, if you can have your AR headset just show you on the iMac which part to replace and how?
- deltron3030 8y agoIn AR or in a "real" 3D environment, skeumorphism could make a lot of sense for manual tasks imo. On 2D screens it's a different story, but even there it helped people to understand technology. You're training hand eye coordination, and other than the instructor or your master in an apprenticeship, you don't have formed habits through practice. You stand in front of an object you want to interact with, and the ghost basically directs your movement, showing you how to hold or lift components and the ideal posture.
