Conclusion and Future Work

This book presents extensive research on the assessment of the quality of \(360^{\circ }\) video perceived by users using HMDs. Secondly, simulator sickness is analyzed to investigate the impact of different influencing factors that may affect comfort among users. Additionally, a simplified Simulator Sickness Questionnaire (SSQ) with nine questions instead of the original 16 questions is proposed for the self-reporting of symptoms. Finally, the suitability of short, single-scale versions of the simulator sickness and presence questionnaires was investigated in comparison to the long versions. Also, the relationship between integral quality, simulator sickness, and presence was studied. The following sections list the contribution of the book and provide recommendations for future research.
