Abstract:
In this article, we provide the nontechnical reader with a fundamental understanding of the components of virtual reality (VR) and a thorough discussion of the role VR has played in social science. First, we provide a brief overview of the hardware and equipment used to create VR and review common elements found within the virtual environment that may be of interest to social scientists, such as virtual humans and interactive, multisensory feedback. Then, we discuss the role of VR in existing social scientific research. Specifically, we review the literature on the study of VR as an object, wherein we discuss the effects of the technology on human users; VR as an application, wherein we consider real-world applications in areas such as medicine and education; and VR as a method, wherein we provide a comprehensive outline of studies in which VR technologies are used to study phenomena that have traditionally been studied in physical settings, such as nonverbal behavior and social interaction. We then present a content analysis of the literature, tracking the trends for this research over the last two decades. Finally, we present some possibilities for future research for interested social scientists.

Abstract:
Virtual Reality (VR) is an emerging technology that provides K–12 students with unique experiences for robust science learning by transporting them to a virtual world where they may engage directly with scientific phenomena. This is because VR creates lifelike three-dimensional spaces where students can manipulate objects; hear, see, and sometimes feel the environment; and explore places that mimic attributes of the real world. VR holds great utility in science education by engaging students in science topics that may be otherwise inaccessible to them in the real world. This inaccessibility may stem from the content (being too small, large, or abstract), safety issues (too hazardous or dangerous), not having access to the materials in their context, possessing physical or cognitive disabilities where they need to do the activity repeatedly or differently, or having cultural, religious, or ethical concerns related to conducting specific science experiments. This commentary discusses how three key types of VR hardware (VR viewers, desktop VR systems, and head-mounted displays) can be incorporated into science standards, curriculum, and instruction by delineating the pros and cons of each. The commentary concludes with specific, stepwise guidance in ideating, designing, and implementing VR-based experiences for K–12 students in the science classroom.

Abstract:
Film festival is a place to convey specific film for specific purposes. Festival nowadays were broaden their medium, not only on screen but also involved more audience with new technology mobile devices. As the longest running documentary film festival in Indonesia, Festival Film Dokumenter (FFD) have been concern about the impact of film screenings to the audience. Since 2016, FFD have been intend to using several medium to convey disability rights awareness. FFD conducted the program Virtual Reality (2016) and The Feelings of Reality (2018). Both of those program were using Virtual Reality (VR) technology during the festival showcase. In 2016 program, the audience even placed in the replica setting to have a similar situation with people with epilepsy. VR is the new attempt to brings the new documentary experience. This technology lead the impression of reality to the audience. VR known as a device that can enhance the audience cinematic experience. In documentary filmmaking, which always closely associated with the depiction of reality - in a way, the VR technology can provide different perspective on perceiving documentary. In documentary screenings, VR have a powerful strength on bringing the reliable reality which closer to the audience. Festival offers the discourse on watching the documentary into experiencing the documentary using VR. This paper will discuss about how festival provide alternative medium to present disability issue to the public. Vice versa, how audience raised their awareness through VR technology. This study conducted in qualitative impact study that focused on in-depth interview with both festival organizer/programmer and audience. This study found out that VR technology identically constructed the reality. This method is the most effective way to raising the awareness because people would feel how to live with disability closely and clearly. Rather than just watching a film, experiencing disability through VR prove a different impression to the audience. By presenting the actual condition of people with disability, VR succeed to give more heightened impact and awareness on this issue.

Abstract:
Dieser Beitrag stellt ein Konzept für die Integration von interaktiven Simulationsmodellen in einer Virtual-Reality (VR)-Simulationsumgebung vor. Dabei werden die Simulationsmodelle aus der virtuellen Inbetriebnahme (VIBN) von Produktionsanlagen betrachtet. Ein Ziel der erweiterten VIBN mithilfe von einer VR besteht darin, die Lücke zwischen VIBN und der realen Inbetriebnahme zu schließen. Damit das vorhandene VIBN-Modell möglichst einfach in der VR-Visualisierung integriert werden kann, ist es essenziell, eine Durchgängigkeit des Simulationsmodells im Engineering zu gewährleisten. Aus diesem Grund wird auf das bestehende Austauschdatenformat „AutomationML“ eingegangen. This paper presents a method for integrating interactive simulation models into a virtual reality (VR) simulation environment. To this end, simulation models from virtual commissioning (VIBN) of production plants are considered. One goal of enhanced VIBN using VR is to close the gap between VIBN and real commissioning. To integrate the existing VIBN model as easily as possible into the VR visualization, it is essential to ensure engineering continuity for the simulation model. For this reason, the existing exchange data format AutomationML will be discussed.

Abstract:
The diversity of learners within education is neither linear nor constant. Educators are challenged to be responsive and understanding when encouraging learners to construct meaning while adhering to stringent standards. The objective of this study is to integrate science standards into authentic learning experiences, created in both a traditional teaching method and virtual reality (VR) platform, for 8th grade middle school students in Lafayette, Louisiana. The authentic experiences were based on oral histories of the residents of Isle de Jean Charles, Louisiana, who have lost 98% of their ancestral homeland since 1955. These experiences were then tied to the National Science Standards (8-MS-ESS1-4, 8-MS-ESS2-2, and 8-MS-ESS3-1). The students were split into two groups and given either a PowerPoint or VR experience, both having the same content. The researchers tracked engagement, focus, interest, and how important the students thought the content was. Using an experimental approach, the researchers also gave a pre- and posttest to determine if the VR experience resulted in better academic learning than a regular, PowerPoint-based lecture. The students were also asked to comment on their experience of the PowerPoint versus the VR and describe what their experience.

Abstract:
With the rapid development of digital information technology, virtual reality (VR) and VR visual space technology have become important branches in the field of computer 5G. Their application research has attracted more and more attention, and their practical value and application prospects are also very broad. This paper mainly studies the artistic style conversion based on 5G VR and VR visual space. This paper starts from the two concepts of VR technology and VR vision, analyzes the development process and characteristics of the two, discusses the possibility and inevitability of the fusion of the two, and leads to the space art produced by the fusion of VR technology and VR vision. This kind of art space gives people an “immersive” experience. This paper analyzes multiple immersive experience works, analyzes its multi-sensory and multi-technical spatial art style transformation form, and summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of the current art style transformation form based on 5G VR and VR visual space, with a view to the future development of VR immersion for reference. This paper analyzes the ease-of-use indicators. The experimental results show that, except for the sensory experience indicators, the average values of other indicators are less than 1. This is a project with better ease of use, and the use of 5G VR and VR vision technology can improve the transformation of space art style.

Abstract:
Virtual Reality (VR) can potentially transport the user to another world. Outside of VR, musical soundtrack is usually placed outside of the scene, referred to as non-diegetic sound. In VR, this could potentially break immersion. Other ways to implement music have to be tested. A test was created consisting of three scenes with a wide selection of “listening modes”, or musical configurations. The listening modes ranged from non-diegetic stereo music via headphones to diegetic, played from speakers inside the VR spaces. 10 respondents played through the scenes in VR, experiencing every listening mode. Respondents then replied to a questionnaire gathering their thoughts on their experience. Results showed that immersion improved the more the experience corresponded to expectations from outside of VR. Non-diegetic listening modes were considered less immersive than diegetic listening modes. This study lays a basic foundation for further research on music in VR with initial guidelines for proper implementation.

Abstract:
A number of diseases can be prevented through active lifestyles. Yet, despite technological and non-technological interventions, many people do not engage in exercise. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) offer the opportunity for highly engaging and entertaining experiences. Their designs affects how people are motivated (or not) to engage and exercise. To maximise the benefits of these technologies a model of motivation that can help designers is needed. There is need to investigate psychological constructs of wellbeing: how do users engage with wellbeing technology’s designs? What motivates or demotivates them? And how can constructs borrowed from psychology aid better technological designs? This thesis introduces a framework for comparing designs in VR exergames and use technologies as instruments to study motivation. An iVR exergaming platform – VR-Rides – was developed to explore designs for wellbeing over an iterative design, development and evaluation process. The thesis addresses challenges by understanding users’ perceptions, evaluating iVR designs based on psychological constructs and informing future designs based on findings to promote wellbeing goals. Furthermore, various designs, game narratives and mechanics were developed to engage players in activities that purportedly lead to wellbeing. The research applied a quantitative research methodology, facilitated across five studies conducted in diverse social settings. Four studies particularly explored VR-Rides’ designs for participants’ engagement and motivation in an exergaming setup. In the fifth study we tested the feasibility of the VR-Rides platform to assess memory for age-related cognitive decline. The findings show psychological constructs have a central role in understanding users’ enjoyment and motivation with wellbeing platform, highlight motivating factors, and bridge the gap between technology designs and wellbeing constructs.

Abstract:
Museum Anna Nordlander is a part of Skelleftea Museum and focuses on the artist Anna Nordlander. ˚ The goal of the project was to develop a VR Experience centered around Anna Nordlander and one of her paintings. The content for the experience was provided and recorded by the people at Museum Anna Nordlander. The purpose was to create a playable demo with features like audio playback, interactable objects, and a modular approach to the code which would allow future additions to the project. This paper investigates how some of the design choices affects the user experience. Specifically, how our choices affect the users physically, how prevalent certain symptoms common in VR are in the product. To gather the necessary data both the Oculus GO and the Oculs Qust were tested. The user tests showed that room scale tracking is an important feature to reduce user discomfort and nausea, and teleportation style movement is not a good solution while using the Oculus GO. The end result is a playable demo containing all the content provided to the developers and all the requested features. The demo is also intended to be modular and easy to expand upon in the future.
Museum Anna Nordlander är en del av Skellefteå Museum och är inriktat på konstnären Anna Nordlander. Målet med projektet var att utveckla en VR upplevelse centrerad kring Anna Nordlander och en av hennes konstverk. Innehållet i upplevelsen spelades in och skickades till utvecklarna från Museum Anna Nordlander. Syftet var att skapa ett spelbart demo med funktioner som ljuduppspelning, interagerbara objekt, och en modulärt tillvägagångssätt vilket skule tillåta framtida tillskott till projektet. Denna artikel använder sig också av användartester för att undersöka hur några av designvalen påverkar användarupplevelsen. Specifikt sett hur våra val påverkar användarna fysikt, hur prevalent vanliga VR-symptom är i produkten. För att samla in den nödvändiga datan gjordes tester med både Oculus GO och Oculus Quest. Användartesterna visade att room-scale tracking är en viktig function för att minska obehag och illamående bland användarna, och att rörelse genom teleportering inte är en bra lösning för Oculus GO. Resultatet är ett spelbart demo som innehåller allt innehåll som utvecklarna fick samt alla funktioner som efterfrågades. Projektet är också tänkt att vara modulärt och lätt att fortsätta arbeta på i framtiden.

Abstract:
VR står för Virtual Reality och används idag ofta för utbildning, både inom skola och yrkesgrupper då det har uppvisat goda resultat och är relativt billigt att utföra jämfört med att träna till exempel personal inom brandkår, sjukhus och polis. Finns det en applikation där flera användare inklusive en instruktör kan samverka oberoende plats och plattform blir det bättre ur både logistiskt och ekonomiskt perspektiv. Det finns idag ingen standardiserad modell för notifikationer inom VR och därför finns det en mängd olika modeller för att fånga användarens uppmärksamhet. Det här arbetet handlar om att undersöka webbläsaren som verktyg för en Virtual Reality- applikation där flera användare samtidigt kan använda applikationen oberoende av vilken plattform som används. Anledningen till att det skall fungera för flera användare samtidigt är för att applikationen är till för träning inför akuta situationer och då skall både instruktör och användare kunna vara i applikationen samtidigt.  Arbetet handlar också om att ta reda på vilken av de två notifikationsmodeller som i det här arbetet testas är det mest tidseffektiva vid träning av brandkår med hjälp av VR-teknik. Resultatet har framkommit genom utförda användartester genomförda med hjälp av en prototyp som har utvecklats; samt intervjuer av de testpersoner som har deltagit i användartester. Testpersonerna delades upp i två lika stora grupper på 10 st i varje grupp för att testa två olika notifikationsmodeller. De testade notifikationsmodeller är en statisk nödutgångsskylt och en visuell vägvisare i form av en pil i golvet som rör sig i för scenariots uppgift rätt riktning. Uppgiften som testpersonerna fick var att ta sig från en punkt till en annan i en rökfylld lokal på så snabb tid som möjligt, med hjälp av den notifikation som tilldelades. Testpersonerna rangordnades efter att samtliga test var genomförda. Den som klarat sig bäst i den ena gruppen jämfördes med den som klarat sig bäst i den andra gruppen och så vidare. Resultatet visar tendenser åt att den visuella vägvisaren var den mest effektiva av de två notifikationsmodeller som testades. Deltagarna i gruppen som använde den visuella sökvägen presterade något bättre, vilket indikerar en trend mot preferenser för den notifikations modellen framför den statiska nödutgångsskylten.

Abstract Title: Business of “another World” – Virtual Reality (VR): Influence of Virtual Reality on consumer experience, co-creation and competitive advantage Course: Thesis for Master Degree in Business Administration Authors: Dominik Ruggenthaler and Maximilian Waidhofer Supervisor: Maria Fregidou-Malama, PhD Examiner: Akmal S. Hyder, PhD Date: 2017/06/01   Purpose: This study’s aim is to examine the influence of VR in the field of architecture and its contribution to create competitive advantages. Methodology: To collect empirical data, the research applied a qualitative and inductive approach. Semi-structured interviews with ten participants with different backgrounds are conducted. Furthermore, primary and secondary data obtained from existing scientific resources built the base for argumentation. Findings & Conclusion: The main findings of the research are clustered in four groups. (1) VR planning creates a new service system and has an influence on the project performance; (2) VR experience and (3) co-creation contributes to generate new competitive advantages; (4) the use of the technology is a trigger for architect companies to differentiate compared to their competitors. Theoretical contribution: This is one of the few studies that combines VR planning with customer experience and co-creation. Furthermore, previous researches do focus on competitive advantages in this context. The developed conceptual model identifies the impact of VR on competitive advantage generation within the architecture business. Managerial implications: The implication of VR leads to both new opportunities and new problems. On one hand, architects can embed their clients better in the planning stage, but on the other hand, customers might become overwhelmed by the multisided VR opportunities. Also, it is outlined that a form of virtual planning will probably become an industry standard, which has to be adopted by architects. Limitations: Cost Leadership, one element of competitive advantages, is not explored through this study. Also, customer response of VR services has to be evaluated more deeply. Therefore we suggest further research in those fields. Keywords: VR planning, co-creation, experience, competitive advantage, architecture

Durnell, Linda A. "Emotional Reaction of Experiencing Crisis in Virtual Reality (VR)/360?" Thesis, Fielding Graduate University, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10747522.

Full text
Abstract:

Emotional Reaction of Experiencing Crisis in Virtual Reality (VR)/360° Immersive technology is being used to provoke emotion and move millions of people to action. Because organizations and filmmakers are exploring more ways to use the immersive technology of VR and 360-degree video to evoke emotion, it is important to investigate what emotional reactions are experienced. Both VR and 360° fall under the category of immersive media and the terms are used interchangeably in this study. NVivo 11 is used for the analysis of 1,700 Twitter texts between the years 2015 and 2017 after people view the crisis Clouds Over Sidra in VR/360°. The appraisal theory of emotion serves as the framework to explore the interpretation of the subject’s emotional reactions. Sentiment and thematic analysis reveal (a) an increase in empathy, (b) reports of emotional reactions including feelings of sadness, grief and anger, (c) greater understanding of the crisis (d) intentions to act related to the crisis, (e) importance of VR/360° for educational use, and (f) the power of VR/360° and its ability to alter fields of education, humanitarian work, and politics. This study finds the immersive experience of viewing a crisis in VR/360° generates a range of highly emotional reactions. It is an important goal to understand the role VR/360° plays in generating emotional reactions and behavioral change, particularly in view of the accelerating development of emotional VR/360° content and people’s access to immersive technology.

Abstract:
Um das universitäre Lehr- und Lernangebot an gesellschaftliche Veränderungen anzupassen, wurde das Seminar „VR-Kirchenpädagogik“ im Sinne des Flipped-Classroom-Konzepts entwickelt, das an der Otto-Friedrich-Universität Bamberg im SoSe 2022 durchgeführt und evaluiert wurde: Lehramtsstudierende der katholischen Theologie sollten zunächst eine virtuelle Kirche erkunden, ehe sie selbst eine VR-Kirchen(raum)erschließung für eine schulische Zielgruppe entwickelten und mit dieser erprobten. Wissenschaftlich gerahmt wurden diese Praxiserfahrungen durch einen die Studierenden vorbereitenden Online-Selbstlernkurs. Das Seminar wurde ich zweifacher Weise evaluiert: Ein Pre-Posttest untersucht, wie sich die digitalitätsbezogene Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung und Selbsteinschätzung angehender Religionslehrkräfte im Rahmen dieses Seminars verändert. Anhand von Einzelinterviews wird hingegen erforscht, welche Potentiale und Herausforderungen VR für kirchenpädagogische Bildungsprozesse und eine diesbezügliche Professionalisierung angehender Religionslehrkräfte mit sich bringt. Das wissenschaftliche Poster zeigt die theoriebasierte Konzeption des Seminars "VR-Kirchenpädagogik", erste Ergebnisse der Begleitforschung sowie Limitationen auf.

Abstract:
The Army’s modernization priorities include the development of augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) simulations for enabling the regiment and increasing soldier readiness. The use of AR/VR technology at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is also growing in the realm of military and civil works program missions. The ERDC Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory (CHL) has developed a ship simulator to evaluate bay channels across the world; however, the current simulator has little to no physical realism in nearshore coastal regions (Figure 1). Thus, the ERDC team is researching opportunities to advance ship simulation to deliver the Ship Simulator of the Future (SSoF). The SSoF will be equipped with a VR mode and will more accurately resolve nearshore wave phenomena by ingesting precalculated output from a Boussinesq-type wave model. This initial prototype of the SSoF application is intended for research and development purposes; however, the technologies employed will be applicable to other disciplines and project scopes, including the Synthetic Training Environment (STE) and ship and coastal structure design in future versions.

Abstract:
The paper deals with the urgent problem of application of virtual reality in foreign language training. Statistical data confirms that the number of smartphone users, Internet users, including wireless Internet users, has been increasing for recent years in Ukraine and tends to grow. The coherence of quick mobile Internet access and presence of supplementary equipment enables to get trained or to self-dependently advance due to usage of virtual reality possibilities for education in the stationary classrooms, at home and in motion. Several important features of virtual reality, its advantages for education are discussed. It is noted that virtual reality is remaining a relatively new technology in language learning. Benefits from virtual reality implementation into foreign language learning and teaching are given. The aspects of immersion and gamification in foreign language learning are considered. It is emphasized that virtual reality creates necessary preconditions for motivation increasing. The results of the survey at two higher education institution as to personal experience in using VR applications for learning foreign languages are presented. Most students at both universities have indicated quite a low virtual reality application usage. Six popular virtual reality applications for foreign language learning (Mondly, VRSpeech, VR Learn English, Gold Lotus, AltSpaceVR and VirtualSpeech) are analyzed. It is stated that the most preferred VR application for foreign language learning includes detailed virtual environment for maximal immersion, high- level visual effects similar to video games, simple avatar control, thorough material selection and complete complicity level accordance of every element and aspect, affordability, helpful and unobtrusive following up.

Full text
Abstract:
The current condition of US infrastructure requires a data-driven, risk-based approach to asset management. In the case of bridges, inspectors in every state visit these structures and collect data, and based on the information they report, state departments evaluate bridge conditions, predict deterioration, and make repair and retrofit decisions. However, the capacity of inspectors for defect detection might vary due to several factors, such as the inspectors’ experience or eyesight, which results in differences when reporting their results. Through the development of a virtual reality (VR)-based testbed, the variability among inspectors in examination and documentation practices in steel and concrete bridges in Indiana will be measured and analyzed. As a result, training programs could be enhanced according to the outcome analyses of the VR system.

Abstract:
Based on literature review it was established that the use of augmented reality as an innovative technology of student training occurs in following directions: 3D image rendering; recognition and marking of real objects; interaction of a virtual object with a person in real time. The main advantages of using AR and VR in the educational process are highlighted: clarity, ability to simulate processes and phenomena, integration of educational disciplines, building an open education system, increasing motivation for learning, etc. It has been found that in the field of physical process modelling the Proteus Physics Laboratory is a popular example of augmented reality. Using the Proteus environment allows to visualize the functioning of the functional nodes of the computing system at the micro level. This is especially important for programming systems with limited resources, such as microcontrollers in the process of training future IT professionals. Experiment took place at Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University and Sumy State Pedagogical University named after A. S. Makarenko with students majoring in Computer Science (field of knowledge is Secondary Education (Informatics)). It was found that computer modelling has a positive effect on mastering the basics of microelectronics. The ways of further scientific researches for grounding, development and experimental verification of forms, methods and augmented reality, and can be used in the professional training of future IT specialists are outlined in the article.
