Abstract

By appealing to several senses and conveying very rich information, video has the potential for a strong emotional impact on viewers, their sense of presence and engagement. These capacities may be extended even further with multimedia sensing and the flexibility of mobility. Mobile devices are commonly used and increasingly incorporating a wide range of sensors and actuators with the potential to capture and display 360° and HD video and metadata and to support more powerful and immersive video user experien-ces. In this paper, we explore the immersion potential of mobile video augmented with visual, auditory and tactile perceptual sensing with an emotional perspective on the impact on users. Results confirmed advantages in using a multisensory approach to increase immersion and user satisfaction, and identified properties and parameters that worked better in different conditions.
