Book Contribution - Book Abstract Conference Contribution

Subtitle:a pilot study
Demonstrator can be described as a versatile concept combining design, art and engineering and can be used in many aspects from decision-making to creating an impact on different innovation markets. This paper focuses on a communication side of a demonstrator on the example of one recently designed for a local research institute Flanders Make to highlight advantages of their new optimization algorithm. A pilot study was conducted to evaluate how effective this message can be conveyed by using a combination of verbal and non-verbal communication types. A comparison of three different lengths of audio descriptions accompanying the visuals was made to identify the equilibrium point at which the explanation enhances the understanding without distracting from the video.
