In VR, the auralization of sound sources of recorded live content remains still a rather unexplored topic. We aim to build a multimodal experience, where visual and audio cues bring a sonic augmentation of the real scene. In the particular scenario of orchestral music content, our goal is to acoustically zoom on a particular instrument when the VR user stares at it. This work aims to improve the learning aspects of music listening, either for education or for personal enrichment. We use audio signal processing to separate different sound sources (instruments) in a acoustic scene (orchestral music recording). Given the signals captured by multiple microphones and the musical score of the piece, our system is able to isolate the different instruments. From the processed separated tracks, we use a binaural rendering technique to emphasize a give instrument. For these experiments we used original content from top European orchestras.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128103740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty adults with different ages and gaming experiences played three games while being recorded by a video camera and monitored by a heart rate sensor. The games were carefully designed to have a linear progression from a boring to a stressful state. Self-reported answers indicate participants perceived the games as being boring at the beginning and stressful at the end. The 6 hours of recordings of all subjects were manually analyzed and FA were annotated. We annotated FA that appeared in the recordings at least twice; annotations were categorized by the period when they happened (boring/stressful part of the games) and analysed on a group and on an individual level. Group level analysis revealed that FA patterns were related to no more than 25% of the subjects. The individual level analysis revealed particular patterns for 50% of the subjects. More FA annotations were made during the stressful part of the games. We conclude that, for the context of our experiment, FA provide an unclear foundation for detection of boredom/stressful states when observed from a group level perspective, while the individual level perspective might produce more information.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129109512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper will review some existing game based efforts and explore what the research and development community is doing to bring game use and game engines more into the mainstream of society. It is the authors'' view that three major impediments that must be worked on in creating the ''killer app'' are related to culture, validity, and business models. Culture is meant to encompass generational issues between users and decision makers as well as organizational inertia. Validity includes a statistically valid methodology that the game performs as intended. The business model entails intellectual property, development costs, and pricing. Each of these items is discussed individually and collectively with respect to creating an ''ecosystem'' of furthering the use of serious games in society. This paper reflects on these aforementioned items through a review of the literature and through selective discussions with experts in gaming education and use. Suggestions are made throughout the paper on ways to continue to accelerate adoption of serious games.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121742812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
