Search and Rescue (SAR) activities involve missions to rescue people that are lost or in danger as e.g. at sea. Today, still- and video-camera technologies e.g. mounted on drones, are increasingly being used to capture views that may not easily be accessible. To conduct user tests of different image presentations, we implement a head-mounted 360° FOV simulator [1] to gain new insights into how to improve object detection in maritime contexts. The results of the user-study have been published at the IEEE Artificial Intelligence Virtual Reality (AIVR) conference in 2019 [2].
