Innovative Research on the Development of Game-based Tourism Information Services Using Component-based Software Engineering

Abstract

In recent years, a number of studies have been conducted exploring the potential of digital tour guides, that is, multimedia components (e.g., 2D graphic, 3D models, and sound effects)

The Role of Audio in Immersive Storytelling: a Systematic Review in Cultural Heritage

“…An asymmetric co-occurrence matrix is created by calculating the concepts' relative co-occurrence frequencies. This matrix produces a two-dimensional concept map using a proprietary clustering algorithm based on Audio First [152][153][154][155][156] Audio and Multimodal Integration [157][158][159][160][161][162][163][164][165][166] Audio in Multimodal Comparison [167] Multimodal Experience [168][169][170][171][172][173][174][175] the spring-force model for the many-body problem [83]. The correctness of each concept in this semantic network generates a third hierarchical dimension, which displays the more general parent concepts at the higher levels.…”

“…In War children [81], stories narrated by WWII eyewitnesses can be watched inside the user's room through a smartphone screen. Huang et al [168] describe a series of video games for touristic purposes, one of which asks visitors to find a specific image inside a cultural site by using AR to get a game reward.…”

“…23 studies use tangible devices, such as console games or VR headset controllers [86,128,133,144,145,149,152,159,165,168,175,186], haptic interfaces [158] or custom-built devices. In ec(h)o [61], users indicate a particular preference for presented audio content by rotating a wooden cube with coloured faces whose position is detected by a camera.…”

Personalization in Audio Storytelling within Virtual and Augmented Reality: State of the Art and Insights

“…Regarding user interaction, many works use Graphical User Interface on a device screen, often relying on a smartphone as an interaction device. Other studies use tangible devices, such as commercial game controllers [8] or haptic interfaces [9]. Ec(h)o [10] uses a custom build device consisting of a wooden cube with colored faces whose position is detected by a camera for controlling an interactive audio guide.…”
