Saliency Dataset
Overview
The QoEVAVE Saliency Dataset captures head-tracking data from subjects freely exploring 14 360° videos presented over a head-mounted display. Each video was viewed under three audio conditions: no audio, mono audio, and 4th-order head-tracked Ambisonics. In addition to the head rotation data, participants completed a post-viewing verbalization task for scene description and the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire (SSQ) for cybersickness assessment.
Data Description
The download of the saliency data is spilt up into two parts. On this page the general information about the Subjects (age, gender, prior experience with HMDs) and the ratings of the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire can be downloaded:
- Subject Information and Simulator Sickness Questionnaire File: Subject_and_SSQ_Data.csv
On the specific sub-pages for each video, more information like the Head-Rotation Data or the Scene Verbalization Data can be downloaded.
If you want to download the data of all the scenes together at once, please use the following links:
