Key Points

  • Empathic responses can be effectively collected using specific interfaces in VR environments, enhancing viewer engagement.
  • Initial assessments show that the circular rating indicators and interactive curving faces are effective in capturing empathic responses.
  • Assessment involved various input types like desktop knobs and VR touchpads for usability and intuitiveness in a virtual setting, with 180° video content used for context and testing purposes. Inclusion of self-reporting systems may improve immersion and emotional connection with the content delivered in VR environments.

Abstract

We design and assess interfaces for time-continuous self-reporting of empathic responses in VR using dimensions of empathic concern and personal distress. Visual styles included Circular Rating Indicators (CRI), Color Dials (CD), and Interactive Curving Faces (Frowny). Input types included desktop knobs and VR controller touchpads. We considered the intuitiveness, effectiveness, and in-trusiveness of designs with viewers of a stereo 180° video. Initial results highlight the CRI and Frowny as promising choices, calling for future examination of their effectiveness.
