| Abstract(in English) | Nonverbal cues such as gaze and head orientation play an important role in video-mediated Communication as well as face-to-face communication. Existing video conferencing system available in a marketplace, however, cannot convey such visual cues correctly. Above all, multiparty communication systems, where visual cues : (1) "Who speaks to whom?" (2) "Do any of them gaze each other?" are not properly recognized by participants, may produce misunderstanding in communication. This study aims to clarify the importance of spatial consistency in visual communication space, and to give a design basis for the systems by analyzing users' behaviors. For that purpose we develop a VMC simulation system for three persons as a minimum configuration of multiparty VMC systems in which three spatial consistency/inconsistency situations can be chosen : (1) Eye-contact system, where each participant can be mutually gazed, (2) Non-eye-contact system, where any of the participants cannot be mutually gazed, and (3) Wrong-eye-contact, where person A's gaze to B is conveyed to person C. These three spatial configurations are compared and evaluated through the users' behaviors in the experiments. The experimental results show that typical user's behaviors which can be classified into confirmation-and compensation behaviors. |
