Vr Sound Mapping: Make Sound Accessible For Dhh People In Virtual Reality Environments, Ziming Li, Roshan Peiris

Frameless

In-game audio plays an important role in enhancing the sense of reality and immersion in the gaming experience. In many games, sounds are also used to provide notifications and clues, which are essential to the gameplay.

A Review Of Xr Classrooms In Institutions Of Higher Education, Brandon Patterson, Tallie Casucci

Frameless

This talk will review the literature and examine existing physical spaces using virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), often referred together as extended reality (XR), to teach learners in an academic setting. Attendees will better understand best practices and ways of addressing potential challenges when designing a physical XR classroom space for higher education. A physical XR classroom provides institutions with a dedicated space for educational courses and workshops, which utilize XR for both one- off sessions and an entire semester (Pirker, Holly, and Gütl 2020). The talk will help answer the question, why a dedicated XR classroom?

Rotateentry: Controller-Rolling-Style Text Entry For Three Degrees Of Freedom Virtual Reality Devices, Ziming Li, Roshan Peiris

Frameless

In this work, we propose RotateEntry, a controller-rolling-style method for text entry on three degrees of freedom virtual reality devices. To move the key-selecting cursor in two dimensions on a QWERTY layout virtual keyboard, we developed three variants of RotateEntry: Rotate Column Rotate, Rotate Key, and Rotate Column Point. We conducted a comparative empirical evaluation of the four text input methods, including three proposed controller-rolling-style text input methods and the standard raycasting-style one. Text entry performance, accuracy, workload, usability, and user experience were tested and evaluated. Due to the COVID-19 situation, our study was conducted remotely. The impact of using …
