Subjective Evaluation of Stereoscopic View in Immersive Projection Display

Abstract

We made a subjective evaluation of stereoscopic views in an immersive projection display. This kind of display has been used for exhibiting virtual reality content in learning facilities such as science museums and cultural centers. They require space and time that differ from those in daily life. The immersive projection display may provide us with the sense of presence by stereoscopic images with a wide field of view. We performed an experiment to compare stereoscopic images with normal images in moving around in the virtual world. The results of the subjective evaluation suggested that the virtual objects placed near a user looked three dimensional more in the stereoscopic views, and the sense of presence was provided sufficiently even in the normal views.
