Immersive media applications are entering our daily lives starting from VR/AR/360° video applications to multi-sensory/multimedia experiences potentially addressing all human senses rather than focusing on hearing and seeing. The overall goal of providing Immersive Media Experiences (IMEx) to end-users is giving them the sensation of being part of the particular media which shall result in a worthwhile, informative user and quality of experience.
The actual objectives of this task force are as follows:
- disseminating the white paper

- Identification of different QoE aspects of immersive experiences
- QoE models and QoE assessment approaches for immersive experiences, addressing various audiovisual modalities; e.g., HDR, omnidirectional video, light fields, point clouds and spatial audio.
