Graphical Abstract

Abstract

360 ∘ videos enable viewers to watch freelyfrom different directions but inevitably prevent them from perceiving all the helpful information. To mitigate this problem, picture-in-picture (PIP) guidance was proposed using preview windows to show regions of interest (ROIs) outside the current view range. We identify several drawbacks of this representation and propose a new method for 360 ∘ film watching called AdaPIP. AdaPIP enhances traditional PIP by adaptively arranging preview windows with changeable view ranges and sizes. In addition, AdaPIP incorporates the advantage of arrow-based guidance by presenting circular windows with arrows attached to them to help users locate the corresponding ROIs more efficiently. We also adapted AdaPIP and Outside-In to HMD-based immersive virtual reality environments to demonstrate the usability of PIP-guided approaches beyond 2D screens. Comprehensive user experiments on 2D screens, as well as in VR environments, indicate that AdaPIP is superior to alternative methods in terms of visual experiences while maintaining a comparable degree of immersion.
