The use of sensors has been used in many artistic interactive installations to augment the interaction between the public and a specific environment. Audience participation and sensor technology can create visualizations and sound.

Previous work (Antonio et al., 2017) has explore interactive movie installation with the project “Characters looking for a spect-actor” that seeks to explore new forms of non-intrusive interaction in interactive movies, while at the same time aims to give the spectator on-the-fly control over the film editing. “Characters looking for a spect-actor” explore the possibility of using 3D sensors and mobile devices as interfaces to generate effective interaction mechanisms in interactive films.
