We propose a spatial affordance-aware affine transformation method between heterogeneous spaces for continuous multi-object matching in shared Mixed Reality (MR) spaces. While previous redirection and spatial mapping approaches utilize physical objects and walkable areas, a critical gap remains in enabling continuous mapping between dissimilar physical environments that supports both precise object alignment and seamless locomotion in a shared space. Our method structurally segments heterogeneous spaces into interaction zones and constructs affine patches based on object adjacency and facing configuration, enabling continuous correspondence. We evaluate our method using a dataset of paired dissimilar spaces and demonstrate that, unlike conventional grid-based methods, our approach achieves broader spatial alignment and richer object matching. The results show that our method can serve as an effective mapping framework for shared environments requiring semantic continuity and structural coherence across diverse real-world spaces.

We proposed viewpoint-tolerant shared depth perception without individual tracking by leveraging human cognitive compensation in universally 3D rendered images on a wall-sized display. While traditional 3D-perception-enabled display systems have primarily focused on single-user scenarios-adapting rendering based on head and eye tracking-the use of wall-sized displays to extend spatial experiences and support perceptually coherent multi-user interactions remains underexplored. We investigated the effects of virtual depths (dv) and absolute viewing distance (da) on human cognitive compensation factors (perceived distance difference, viewing angle threshold, and perceived presence) to construct the wall display-based eXtended Reality (XR) space. Results show that participants experienced a compelling depth perception even from off-center angles of 23°-37°, and largely increasing virtual depth worsens depth perception and presence factors, highlighting the importance of balancing extended depth of virtual space and viewing distance from the wall-sized display. Drawing on these findings, wall-sized displays in venues such as museums, galleries, and classrooms can evolve beyond 2D information sharing to offer immersive, spatially extended group experiences without individualized tracking or wearables.
