Immersion (HCI)

Immersion (HCI)

Definition

Everybody is constantly exposed to stimuli from different origins: visual, tactile, auditory, olfactory, and gustatory.

These stimuli are specific from the environment where they are produced; they are part of the atmosphere and the identity of the place. In Human-Computer Interaction, immersion consists in virtually putting the subject in an environment, by artificially recreating the stimuli generated by this environment in reality.
