The ACM International Conference on Interactive Experiences for TV and Online Video (ACM TVX) is the leading international conference for presentation and discussion of research into online video and TV interaction and user experience. The conference brings together international researchers and practitioners from a wide range of disciplines, ranging from human-computer interaction, multimedia engineering and design to media studies, VR/AR Technologies, media psychology, media artists, and sociology.
ACM TVX 2014 was held in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, TVX 2015 in Brussels, Belgium, TVX 2016 in Chicago, USA, TVX 2017 in Hilversum, The Netherlands. Next year TVX 2018 comes to Seoul, Republic of Korea for the first time in ASIA. All members of TVX look out the opportunity to build up a strong companion research community with Asian researchers and students.
Next year’s theme is ‘Immersive Media Experiences’ and we particularly welcome contributions that look into specific tools, methods and evaluation of experiences related to creating and enabling high-resolution VR media content consumption. The following topics are interested to be covered in the conference, but are not limited to:
