“…However, we identified two primary negative aspects. First, our study supports the existing notion that there is a need to guide viewers in situations where they can choose their own viewpoint [1,32,35,39], as our participants also reported the fear of missing out (FOMO), that is, missing something interesting due to looking at something else at the time. Second, participants stated being generally less engaged, by reporting feelings of being lonely or lost, or having difficulty deciding which parts of the environments to explore.…”

“…Understandably, in filmmaking (and storytelling) it is imperative that viewers are looking in the right direction during key parts of the story. Prior research has also found that viewers may experience fear of missing out (FOMO) when presented with the freedom to choose their own viewpoint [1,3,32,35,39], which is another argument for providing guidance to viewers.…”

“…These videos are often viewed using a head-mounted display (HMD), which enables looking around naturally by turning one's head. This form of viewing can provide an immersive and enjoyable experience, and lead to a high sense of presence [1,3,7,17,21,24,35,36]. Current research commonly identifies the need to guide 360 • video viewers, as enabling viewers to choose their own viewpoint may result in them feeling lost or missing things [8,11,23,26,27,32,35,39].…”

Viewing 360 • videos on a head-mounted display (HMD) can be an immersive experience. However, viewers must often be guided, as the freedom to rotate the view may make them miss things. We explore a unique, automatic approach to this problem with dynamic guidance methods called social indicators. They use the viewers' gaze data to recognize popular areas in 360 • videos, which are then visualized to subsequent viewers. We developed and evaluated two different social indicators in a 30-participant user study. Although the indicators show great potential in subtly guiding users and improving the experience, finding the balance between guidance and self-exploration is vital. Also, users had varying interest towards indicators that represented a larger audience but reported a clear desire to use the indicators with their friends. We also present guidelines for providing dynamic guidance for 360 • videos.

“…"the process of imagining the world from another's vantage point or imagining oneself in another's shoes," decreases stereotyping of others and facilitates social coordination. Aitamurto et al [2] suspect that the sense of presence may be positively correlated with emotional engagement, empathy, and attitude change as viewers embed themselves in the perspectives of others. The authors suspect that view switching may support taking different perspectives and lead to a better understanding of the perspectives of the different characters, e.g.…”

Context and motivation] Complex software-based systems involve several stakeholders, their activities and interactions with the system. Vision videos are used during the early phases of a project to complement textual representations. They visualize previously abstract visions of the product and its use. By creating, elaborating, and discussing vision videos, stakeholders and developers gain an improved shared understanding of how those abstract visions could translate into concrete scenarios and requirements to which individuals can relate.[Question/problem] In this paper, we investigate two aspects of refining vision videos: (1) Refining the vision by providing alternative answers to previously open issues about the system to be built. (2) A refined understanding of the camera perspective in vision videos. The impact of using a subjective (or "ego") perspective is compared to the usual third-person perspective.[Methodology] We use shopping in rural areas as a real-world application domain for refining vision videos. Both aspects of refining vision videos were investigated in an experiment with 20 participants.[Contribution] Subjects made a significant number of additional contributions when they had received not only video or text but also both -even with very short text and short video clips. Subjective video elements were rated as positive. However, there was no significant preference for either subjective or non-subjective videos in general.

Increasing donation intentions toward endangered species: An empirical study on the mediating role of psychological and technological elements of VR

Virtual reality (VR) as a communication tool is increasingly gaining attention in various contexts, including the promotion of fundraising and donation‐based activities. Recent academic literature tends to focus on VR as a valuable tool for human‐human donation, with little consideration of the human‐animal donation context. Furthermore, the use of key flagship species can encourage donations for the specific animal and provide broader conservation and economic benefits, including encouraging tourism and visitor spending. However, work needs to explore VR as a tool for flagship species donation versus other forms of communication tools and the impact this could have on broader conservation goals. Two studies were conducted to investigate VR in a human‐animal donation context using two modalities (VR and static advertisement). Study 1 investigates the mediating role of psychological elements: empathy and enjoyment, while Study 2 examines the mediating role of technological elements of VR: usability and telepresence. We found that VR increases enjoyment and engagement with the flagship species, increasing the likelihood of donating. VR also increases telepresence, and the usability of the VR tool positively affects donors' likelihood to donate. Our findings inform a future research agenda to consider VR in a donation context further.
