Interactive Video
The term interactive video usually refers to a technique used to blend interaction and linear film or video. History In 1962, Steve Russell, a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), created Spacewar!, the world's first interactive computer game. In 1967, the first interactive film, The Cinema Machine, was released. While watching this film, the audience in the cinema theatre would choose one of two scenes during the plot fork. Switching between scenes was done manually by the projectionist. In 1972, Philips introduced the first laser disc (LD). Laser disc technology allowed for playback of any video chapter, making interactive video possible. In 1983, Sega released Astron Belt, the first interactive arcade game on LD. Also released in 1983 was Cinematronics's LD animated Dragon's Lair. During the 1990s, several interactive Video CD formats were available such as CD-i (Compact Disc-Interactive) and Digital Video Interactive (DVI). Since 2000, the LD ...
