INDEX
• Position the approach we take compared to Lab & Field studies
• Present our setup
• Present 3 studies of the evaluation of a mobile, location-based app in our setup
• Conclusions
• Challenges / Future work
5
ULTIMATE GOAL OF CONTEXT-AWARE APPS
• Provide added value to user
• How to evaluate user’s experience while taking context into account?
• Lab vs. Field test
6
LAB
• Highly controllable• Useful for usability-related
studies
• Ecological valid?• Context?
7
FIELD TEST
• Context
• Difficult to conduct• Logistic & technical challenges• Difficult to observe• Few participants• Qualitative
8
EVALUATION IN AUGMENTED VIRTUALITY
• Context• Easy to manipulate• Large numbers of participants• Can include mobile phones,
tablets, other interaction devices• Can observe behavior

OUR SETUP: CAVE
• 4 back-projection screens• 3.5 x 2.6 m.• Illusion of a continuous 360o view
• Head-tracking with 4 Wii-Motes• User wears a headband with
infrared LED• ”Human joystick”• V.E. created in Maya & rendered
using the OGRE 3D engine• Two V.E.
• Supermarket,• City in an island• More to come

OUR SETUP
• The virtual supermarket is a generic supermarket, based on common denominators found in typical Dutch supermarkets
• Contains: isles, freezers, checkout counters, etc., all rendered with photo realistic graphics
• Audio: typical supermarket music, typical announcements
• ~20% of the shelves are filled with products
• Android app, Bluetooth communication with V.E.
15
NOVELTY
• Immersive User Experience• Nearly photo-realistic vs. low resolution graphics• CAVE vs. V.E. presented on monitors
• Research focused on UX, going beyond effectiveness and efficiency
• i.e. perceived intrusiveness, shopping behavior, feeling of presence, etc.
• Capturing actual behavior vs. opinion• Marketing studies used exclusively scenario-based methods
16
3 STUDIES
• Location-based ads
• Study 1: 27 participants (pilot)• Study 2: 70 participants• Study 3: 70 participants
• Wanted to measure: Perceived intrusiveness of ads• Has been reported:
• Perceived intrusiveness of ads leads to ad irritation1
• High values of ad irritation lead to ad avoidance1

17
STUDY1• Ad: Chewing gum• Push• Controlled for:
• Product involvement• Attitude towards advertising in general
• Measurement: Perceived intrusiveness• Results: Location-congruent ads lead to less ad intrusiveness
than location-incongruent ads (virtual location)
GROUP1: SAW AD WHILE AT SOUP SHELF GROUP2: SAW AD AT COUNTER (NEXT TO CHEWING GUM)

18
STUDY2• Differences with study 1:
• More participants• Open task• Exact same location for both groups• Products on shelf changed for
groups• Soup ad for both groupsHühn, A.E., Khan, V.J., Nuijten, K., Gisbergen van, M., Lucero, A., Ketelaar, P. (2011-to appear).
The Effect of Location on Perceived Intrusiveness of Mobile Ads. Proceedings ICORIA 2011
• Same result with study 1• Location-congruent ads
lead to less ad intrusiveness than location-incongruent ads (virtual location)
19
STUDY3
• Same setup with Study 2• Ad of Soup• Location-Based• Measurement: perceived intrusiveness
• Differences:• Same products on shelves for both
groups• One group saw a social
recommendation along with the location-based ad
• Results: ad with social recommendation is perceived as more intrusive
GROUP1:Along with the ad they saw a social recommendation
GROUP2:Saw just the ad
Study conducted by: Stephan van de Kruis

CONCLUSIONS
• Location does positively affect perceived intrusiveness of mobile ads
• Social recommendations would not help mobile, location-based ads
• Demonstrated a V.E. where UX research of mobile, context-aware systems can be performed
• Adjustments of the V.E. and context are done easier, are more controllable and faster compared to an experiment in a real life setting
• Reproducibility• If there is an initial halo-effect it does not affect the
actual perceptions
21
CHALLENGES / FUTURE WORK
• Fill supermarket with a representative product set(~20K products)
• Head tracking with MS Kinect• Have a more complete phone app
• Shop with mobile phone• Include personalization profile
• Ability to interact with products• Use log and video input for analyzing behavior
• Social context: Avatars• Corroborate qualitative findings of previous research
endeavors & explore new research directions• Validation studies
22
SUMMARY
• 3 studies of mobile, location-based ads evaluation in augmented virtual supermarket
