The focus of the study was on the usability of the devices, with respect to the unique nature of AR experiences, especially in the context of MR games, namely: the user usually needs at least one free hand; the interface might be used outside, the users will move around and they have to carry the equipment with them. The study found that Ultra Mobile PCs (UMPC) are preferred to Head Mounted Displays (HMD) and presents a number of concepts to the design of such systems.Input/Output Devices-Image display H.5.1 [Information Interfaces and Presentation]: Multimedia Information Systems-Artificial, augmented, and virtual realities H.5.2 [Information Interfaces and Presentation]: User Interfaces-Evaluation/methodology H.5.m [Information Interfaces and Presentation]: Miscellaneous- Miscellaneous
