What public head-movement and saliency datasets exist for 360-degree content, and what do they show about where viewers look (and what they cannot show about story)?
Two open-access datasets papers were read: Sitzmann et al. (arXiv v2; 22 computer-generated static stereo panoramas, 169 users, 1980 gaze-and-head trajectories, three viewing conditions) report an equator bias and strong between-user agreement; Nasrabadi et al. (MMSys 2019; 28 videos built on a moving-object by camera-motion taxonomy, 60 participants, no audio; MIT-licensed GitHub repo with traces, questionnaires and scripts) report preliminary signs that viewers tend to look at moving targets, with exceptions, and more dispersed viewing in higher-altitude shots. Nasrabadi et al. also list other datasets with participant counts (e.g. 59 participants/5 videos; 48 subjects/20 videos; 57 subjects with eye data) and note viewing is more scattered under free viewing than when questioned afterward. These datasets describe viewing of short, mostly narrative-free content and do not test story comprehension or missed events.
