SLIVeR: A Narrative VR Experience for Immersive Lifelog Exploration

We present SLIVeR (Someone else's Lifelog in Virtual Reality), an interactive system that reimagines lifelog data through narrative-based Virtual Reality (VR). Instead of passively viewing chronological data, users navigate personal history through cinematic scenes and existential prompts embedded in a memory-reconstruction storyline. Guided by life-oriented questions, users progress from disorientation to recollection using curated lifelog clips. Built in Unity and deployed on Meta Quest 3, SLIVeR transforms lifelogging into a reflective, game-like journey that blends storytelling, gamification, and immersive visuals to enhance user engagement.

Abstract

We present SLIVeR (Someone else's Lifelog in Virtual Reality), an interactive system that reimagines lifelog data through narrative-based Virtual Reality (VR). Instead of passively viewing chronological data, users navigate personal history through cinematic scenes and existential prompts embedded in a memory-reconstruction storyline. Guided by life-oriented questions, users progress from disorientation to recollection using curated lifelog clips. Built in Unity and deployed on Meta Quest 3, SLIVeR transforms lifelogging into a reflective, game-like journey that blends storytelling, gamification, and immersive visuals to enhance user engagement.
