An Overview of the 3rd International Workshop on eXtended Reality for Industrial and Occupational Supports (XRIOS)

The 3rd International Workshop on the eXtended Reality for Industrial and Occupational Supports (XRIOS) focuses on identifying the present advancements in XR research, particularly in the realms of human factors and ergonomics, as they apply to industrial and occupational tasks. The workshop also aims to explore potential future research directions. XRIOS was held for the first time at IEEE VR 2022, where it served as the first venue for building an interdisciplinary research community that bridges XR developers/practitioners and human factors and ergonomics researchers interested in industrial and occupational XR applications. XRIOS 2024, marking the first in-person workshop, follows the successes of XRIOS 2022 and 2023 in response to society's growing needs by expanding the XRIOS community and enhancing opportunities for engagement and collaboration.
