structure introduction user engagement with empathic agents PEFiC in digital dossiers evaluation scenarios development of the MetaMorph box interactive PEFiC powered by DLP/STEP some issues and pitfalls conclusions

carry back home message an empirically tested model of engaging fiction characters (PEFiC) test scenarios in the real-life application domain of digital dossiers DLP+X3D/STEP technology to support virtual environments and characters all the ingredients needed to conduct proper agent research

user engagement with empathic agents

embodied agents as fictional characters phase 1 -- encoding  ethics -- good vs. bad  aesthetics -- beauty vs ugliness  epistemics -- realistic vs. unrealistic phase 2 -- comparison  establishing personal relevance, mutual similarity and valence towards fictional character phase 3 -- response  involvement vs distance -- tendency to approach or avoid PEFiC

PEFiC in digital dossiers

...  navigation -- pure interactivity  guided tours -- using some narrative structure  agent-mediated -- navigation and guided tours evaluation scenarios

development of the MetaMorph box 64 systematically varied agent types task relevance valence ethics aesthetics ephistemics

interactive PEFiC powered by DLP/STEP

 declarative language -- for agent support  multiple threads of control -- for multiple shared objects  distributed communication -- networking capabilities (TCP/IP) programming platform DLP/STEP  convenience -- for non-professional authors  compositional semantics -- combining operations  re-definability -- for high-level specification of actions  parametrization -- for the adaptation of actions  interaction -- with a (virtual) environment scripting behavior

agents in multi-user virtual environments mixed-media presentations with commentators Tai-Chi, domestic servants and conducting music  tai-chi demonstrator  grasping and reaching, using inverse kinematics and reasoning  facial animation (with text-to-speech)  virtual presenter -- presenting powerpoint presentation DLP/STEP applications

some issues and pitfalls complexity of domain of cultural heritage limited number of experts with sufficient knowlegde task: prepare an installation of a work of art in a museum we should restrict the user’s task to exploration or tasks requiring limited expertise

conclusions an empirically tested model of engaging fiction characters (PEFiC) test scenarios in the real-life application domain of digital dossiers DLP+X3D/STEP technology to support virtual environments and characters all the ingredients needed to conduct proper agent research we presented:
