Haptic-aware Interaction: Design and Evaluation

Published: 27 October 2023 Publication History

Abstract

The emerging haptic technology has introduced new media perceptions and also increased the immersive experiences of end-users. To date, novel haptic-audio-visual environments and their Quality of Experience (QoE) assessments are still challenging issues. In this work, we investigate the haptic-visual interaction QoE in virtual as well as real-world environments. First, we establish a haptic-visual interaction platform based on a balance ball Virtual Reality (VR) game scene and a haptic-visual interaction platform with data-glove-assisted remote control. Second, we conduct subjective tests to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the impacts of system-related, user-related and task-related factors on QoE evaluation. Third, we propose learning-based QoE models to effectively evaluate the user-perceived QoE in haptic-visual interaction. In the future work, we aim to focus on the improvement of the two established platforms, with the addition of audio-related influencing factors and more haptic feedback, and optimizing the proposed QoE model for further improvement of haptic-audio-visual interaction applications.
