Development of an user interface for virtual reality
Publication . De Pontes Romero, Yesica; Silva, José Luís; Baras, Karolina
This project aims to create a head-mounted display (HMD) prototype interface for improved user interaction in virtual reality environments. Nowadays, this virtual reality technology is covering more areas of the market, among which are the Hospitality and Tourism. At present, some hotels have implemented this technology in their services. Based on the existing "Guestly" system [1], a mobile and web platform that allows hotel guests to see the characteristics of the hotel, development of a prototype for a more immersive user interaction in virtual reality environments is proposed, thus offering an innovative solution. The developed prototype is structured by its characteristics and options, facilitating maintenance and use of the system that is going to be developed. A preliminary evaluation was carried out with users who achieved the initially established objectives. This new application is an innovative scope in technology, offering a solution to improve the scope of the existing “Guestly” system [1]. For the realization of future developments, it can be analyzed that other resources or additional functionalities can be explored for their development and, in this way, expand the scope of the current project.
