contents In this position paper, we discuss symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults, as well as available forms of treatment or assistance in the context of mixed reality. Mixed reality offers many potentials for assisting adults with symptoms commonly found in (but not limited to) ADHD, but the availability of mixed reality solutions is not only limited commercially, but also limited in terms of proof-of-concept prototypes. We discuss two major challenges with attention assistance using mixed reality solutions: the limited availability of adult-specific prototypes and studies, as well as the limited number of solutions that offer continuous intervention of ADHD-like symptoms that users can employ in their daily life.
