Abstract
This article focuses on captioning for immersive
environments and the research aims to identify how to display
them for an optimal viewing experience. This work began four
years ago with some partial findings. This second stage of
research, built from the lessons learnt, focuses on the design
requirements cornerstone: prototyping. A tool has been
developed towards quick and realistic prototyping and testing.
The framework integrates methods used in existing solutions.
Given how easy it is to contrast and compare, the need to further
the first framework was obvious. A second improved solution
was developed, almost as a showcase on how ideas can quickly
be implemented for user testing. After an overview on captions
in immersive environments, the article describes its
implementation, based on web technologies opening for any
device with a web browser. This includes desktop computers,
mobile devices and head mounted displays. The article finishes
with a description of the new caption modes leading to improved
methods, hoping to be a useful tool towards testing and
standardisation.
