  • The Application of Virtual Reality in Engineering Education

In this paper, we argue and present evidence from vast research that VR is an excellent tool in engineering education. Through our review, we deduced that VR has positive cognitive and pedagogical benefits in engineering education, which ultimately improves the students’ understanding of the subjects, performance and grades, and education experience. In addition, the benefits extend to the university/institution in terms of reduced liability, infrastructure, and cost through the use of VR as a replacement to physical laboratories. There are added benefits of equal educational experience for the students with special needs as well as distance learning students who have no access to physical labs. Furthermore, recent reviews identified that VR applications for education currently lack learning theories and objectives integration in their design.

  • Design Architecture in Virtual Reality
    Design Architecture in Virtual Reality by Anisha Sankar A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Architecture Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2019 © Anisha Sankar 2019 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. - iii - Abstract Architectural representation has newly been introduced to Virtual Real- ity (VR) technology, which provides architects with a medium to show- case unbuilt designs as immersive experiences. Designers can use specialized VR headsets and equipment to provide a client or member of their design team with the illusion of being within the digital space they are presented on screen. This mode of representation is unprec- edented to the architectural field, as VR is able to create the sensation of being encompassed in an environment at full scale, potentially elic- iting a visceral response from users, similar to the response physical architecture produces. While this premise makes the technology highly applicable towards the architectural practice, it might not be the most practical medium to communicate design intent. Since VR’s conception, the primary software to facilitate VR content creation has been geared towards programmers rather than architects. The practicality of inte- grating virtual reality within a traditional architectural design workflow is often overlooked in the discussion surrounding the use of VR to rep- resent design projects. This thesis aims to investigate the practicality of VR as part of a de- sign methodology, through the assessment of efficacy and efficiency, while studying the integration of VR into the architectural workflow.

  • Self Representation and Interaction in Immersive Virtual Reality
    Self Representation and Interaction in Immersive Virtual Reality Eros Viola a, Fabio Solari b and Manuela Chessa c Dept. of Informatics, Bioengineering, Robotics, and Systems Engineering, University of Genoa, Italy Keywords: Virtual Reality, Self Representation, Intel Realsense D435, Interaction, Leap Motion, Manus Prime Haptic Gloves, Alignment, Rigid Transformation, Live Correction. Abstract: Inserting a self-representation in Virtual Reality is an open problem with several implications for both the sense of presence and interaction in virtual environments. To cope the problem with low cost devices, we de- vise a framework to align the measurements of different acquisition devices used while wearing a tracked VR head-mounted display (HMD). Specifically, we use the skeletal tracking features of an RGB-D sensor (Intel Realsense d435) to build the user’s avatar, and compare different interaction technologies: a Leap Motion, the Manus Prime haptic gloves, and the Oculus Controllers. The effectiveness of the proposed systems is assessed through an experimental session, where an assembly task is proposed with the three different interaction medi- ums, with and without the self-representation. Users reported their feeling by answering the User Experience and Igroup Presence Questionnaires, and we analyze the total time to completion and the error rate. 1 INTRODUCTION The focus is to develop a framework that is compat- ible with the most common head-mounted displays In current Virtual Reality (VR) applications, the vi- (HMDs), and that can also be extended to other track- sual feedback of the user’s body is often missing, de- ing devices, both for the body tracking and for the spite the abundance of enabling technologies, which hands and fingers tracking.

The idea of modern VR can be traced back decades, but because of the limitations of the technology (both hardware and software), we are only now exploring its potential. At present, VR can be used for tele-surgery, PTSD therapy, social training, professional meetings, conferences, and much more. It is no longer just an expensive gimmick to go on a momentary field trip; it is a tool, and as with the automobile, personal computer, and smartphone, it will only evolve as more and more adopt and utilize it in various ways. It can provide a three dimensional interface where only two dimensions were previously possible. It can allow us to express ourselves to one another in new ways regardless of the distance between individuals.

  • Investigation of the Stroop Effect in a Virtual Reality Environment
    Tallinn University of Technology School of Information Technologies Younus Ali 177356IASM Investigation of the Stroop Effect in a Virtual Reality Environment Master’s Thesis Aleksei Tepljakov Ph.D. Research Scientist TALLINN 2020 Declaration of Originality Declaration: I hereby declare that this thesis, my original investigation and achieve- ment, submitted for the Master’s degree at Tallinn University of Technology, has not been submitted for any degree or examination. Younus Ali Date: January 7, 2020 Signature: ......................................... Abstract Human cognitive behavior is an exciting subject to study. In this work, the Stroop effect is investigated. The classical Stroop effect arises as a consequence of cognitive interference due to mismatch of the written color name and the actual text color. The purpose of this study is to investigate the Stroop effect and Reverse Stroop in the virtual reality environment by considering response, error, and subjective selection. An interactive application using virtual reality technology with Unreal Engine implemented using instruction-based Stroop and reversed Stroop tasks. In the designed test, participants need to throw a cube-shaped object into three specific zones according to instructions. The instructions depend on the color ( represents Stroop Test ) or the meaning of the words (represents reversed Stroop test). The instructions using either congruent or incongruent (“blue” displayed in red or green) color stimuli. Participants took more time to respond to the Stroop test than
