In recent years, interactive narratives emerged as a new form of digital entertainment, allowing users to interact and change stories according to their own desires. However, designing an interaction model for an interactive storytelling system involves several challenges, including the need for natural interaction interfaces and the ability to handle multi-user interactions. This project explores the development and evaluation of several interaction methods for interactive storytelling systems.
Status:
Contributions:
- We explore the use of social networks as a way of interaction in interactive narratives.
- We present a multi-user natural language interface designed for TV and cinema, which allows users to freely interact with virtual characters by text or speech.
- We propose a multimodal, multi-user, and adaptive interaction system for interactive storytelling applications.
- We present a non-branching interactive comics system capable of generating dynamic interactive narratives in the format of comic books.
