Descripción
Sumario:The ImAc project was the first European initiative aiming to propose and test the model of implementing access services in 360  videos, paving the way for future studies in the under-researched field of immersive accessibility. This article reports on the methodology and results of a pilot study and a small-scale reception study, conducted in the last months of the project. The results show a favourable reception of extended audio descriptions by AD users. They also indicate interest in the implementation of spatial sound in AD provided for 360  content, which could be tested in future reception studies
