\section{Experiments} \section{Evaluation}
To evaluate the impact of the modifications made in the previous section, we conducted a user study to collect traces.
To ensure that the users will use bookmarks, which is required to evaluate the improvements brought by our new policy, we decide to conduct this experiment exclusively on mobile devices.

\subsubsection{Tutorial} \subsubsection{Models}
In this user study, we use two models.
\begin{itemize}
\item For the tutorial, we use a first model from a video game, representing a small scene, to maintain a good framerate and to prevent users from getting lost in the scene.
\item For all the other parts of the experiment, we kept using the model used in the previous chapter.
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Experiment}
The experiment consists in 4 phases: a tutorial, a comparison between interfaces with and without bookmarks, a comparison between two streaming policies, and a final navigation where the user is looking for objects in the scene.
\paragraph{Tutorial}
The experiment starts with a tutorial, so the users can get accustomed to our interface. The experiment starts with a tutorial, so the users can get accustomed to our interface.

This part of the experiment consists in two 1 minute long sessions: the first one has a naked interface where the only available intarctions are translations and rotations of the camera, and the second one enhances the interface with bookmarks.

This part most importantly acts as an extended tutorial: the first half trains the user with the controls, and the second half trains them with the bookmarks, and this is why we decided not to randomize those two halves.

\subsubsection{Apparatus\todo{lol, i like this title but im not sure}}
During these experiments, we need a server and a client.
The server is hosted on an Acer Aspire V3 with an Intel Core i7 3632QM processor.
The user is given a Samsung Galaxy S5 that is connected to the server via Wi-fi.
