Narratives within immersive technologies

TL;DR

This paper explores technical advances for developing narratives in immersive environments, focusing on scripting, annotation, and realization within virtual reality, leveraging physiological feedback and computational intelligence.

Contribution

It introduces a theoretical framework and initial script example for narrative development in immersive media, integrating physiological feedback and AI techniques.

Findings

Developed a theoretical framework for immersive narratives

Presented an initial script example for immersive storytelling

Explored the use of physiological feedback and computational intelligence

Abstract

The main goal of this project is to research technical advances in order to enhance the possibility to develop narratives within immersive mediated environments. An important part of the research is concerned with the question of how a script can be written, annotated and realized for an immersive context. A first description of the main theoretical framework and the ongoing work and a first script example is provided. This project is part of the program for presence research, and it will exploit physiological feedback and Computational Intelligence within virtual reality.
