Narrative’s Impact on Quality of Experience in Digital Storytelling

Abstract

Our ways of telling stories have evolved along with advances in technology. This has led to the emergence of digital storytelling. This project explores narrative influences on Quality of Experience of users in digital stories. This is done by creating and implementing a location driven digital story presented to the user by an augmented reality application on a mobile device. This narrative system has been evaluated by 30 people who have participated in a subjective evaluation. The results show that the narrative setup results in a richer, livelier and more engaging experience.
