A Multi-modal Information Presentation Method for Performers in Stuffed Suits

Authors Info & Claims
Published:08 December 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

Performers in stuffed suits cannot act naturally because it is difficult for them to aware surrounding situations clearly only using peep holes. To solve this problem, our research group proposed a system for supporting performers in stuffed suits. By using this system, the performer can see their surrounding information around him/her through camera images attached on the stuffed suit. However, there are two problems when actually using the system. The first is that the dependability of the system is not guaranteed, and the other is that the performer cannot look at the camera image well enough while performing. The main purpose of our research is to apply a dependable method for wearable system by device bypassing for supporting performers in stuffed suits. In this paper, we implemented three information presenting devices and investigated the relationship between a performer's surroundings and cognition difficulty with information presentation.
