Agrivoltaics (AV) are expanding worldwide, but knowledge about the perception and acceptance of this approach is far from complete. The aim present study was to investigate visual AV systems, focussing on central research question whether type grassland use influences vertical interspace AV. For purpose, three photo-based pictures a plant were used in laboratory experiment with 29 participants: original photo showing only; an edited cattle added silage bales added. eye-tracking results showed that additional picture elements (i.e., bales) at least partially attracted attention, did not distract technical depicted systems. analysis ratings indicated relatively stable attitudes towards AV, which could be easily modulated by depicting different types within Short-term limited changes appeared result provision information mental engagement topic. We recommend carrying out further based larger, representative samples more realistic stimuli systems would provide better understanding than photos alone, such as on-site visits or VR visualisations, enhance external validity results. also suggest conducting longitudinal studies explore possible long-term effects public
