However, due to the limi ted field of view of augmented reality devices, it can sometimes be diffic ult to become aware of newly emerging information inside or outside the fi eld of view. Typical visual conflicts like clutter and occlusion of augmen tations occur and can be further aggravated especially in the context of d ense information spaces. In this paper, we evaluate how multisensory cue c ombinations can improve the awareness for moving out-of-view objects in na rrow field of view augmented reality displays. We distinguish between prox imity and transition cues in either visual, auditory or tactile manner. Pr oximity cues are intended to enhance spatial awareness of approaching out- of-view objects while transition cues inform the user that the object just entered the field of view. In study 1, user preference was determined for 6 different cue combinations via forced-choice decisions. In study 2, the 3 most preferred modes were then evaluated with respect to performance an d awareness measures in a divided attention reaction task. Both studies we re conducted under varying noise levels. We show that on average the Visua l-Tactile combination leads to 63% and Audio-Tactile to 65% faster reactio ns to incoming out-of-view augmentations than their Visual-Audio counterpa rt, indicating a high usefulness of tactile transition cues. We further sh ow a detrimental effect of visual and audio noise on performance when feed back included visual proximity cues. Based on these results, we make recom mendations to determine which cue combination is appropriate for which app lication.\n\nRegistration Category: FULL ACCESS, EXPERIENCE PLUS ACCESS, T RADE EXHIBITOR\n\nLanguage: ENGLISH\n\nFormat: IN-PERSON URL:https://sa2022.siggraph.org/en/full-program/?id=gp_138&sess=sess257 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
