Based on ten years' experience developing interactive camera/projector systems for public science and culture exhibits, we define a distinct form of augmented reality focused on social interaction: social immersive media. Our work abandons GUI metaphors and builds on the language of cinema, casting users as actors within simulated narrative models. We articulate philosophical goals, design principles, and interaction techniques that create strong emotional responses and social engagement through visceral interaction. We describe approaches to clearly communicate cultural and scientific ideas through the medium. And we demonstrate how practitioners can design interactions that promote specific social behaviors in users.

“…Our motion capture system opens up a range of new application areas for computer games. One such class of applications is Squidball that is a real-time interactive game using motion capture technology [1]. It traces the balloons' spatial location to facilitate interaction between players and balloons for a cooperative and energetic game.…”

“…Especially for CGG, it is necessary to develop an interface to track the simultaneous motion of multiple players. There have been several academic experiments with the purpose of developing a motion based game system with a large audience in various public spaces such as a theatre or outdoor area [9]- [11]. These problems are mainly related to how to balance the collective purposefulness and individual desire.…”
