Creating a Virtual Reality Application for Transporting Items

Author(s): Treub, T.P. (2021)

Abstract:
A VR application has been developed to check if items of modular apartments can be transported inside vacant buildings for the 'Doos in doos' project of Innovatiehub Salland. In addition to this, the application also provides a training mode for construction workers and a mode to visualize configurations of apartments inside a building. The successful creation of this application was achieved by implementing goal-based learning, intuitive controls, a simple user interface and methods for the prevention of cybersickness. The application was developed through multiple iterations and co-design with the client. The application is evaluated to have a good to excellent usability score on the SUS test but needs to be further tested on end-users.
