Comparing VR Display with Conventional Displays for User Evaluation Experiences

Abstract

The adoption of virtual reality in various industrial sectors other than gaming is spreading by the day. Many people are still sceptical regarding the potentials and advantages of virtual reality because this has not been made obvious enough to convince them. We investigated how virtual reality affects the concentration, involvement and enjoyment of users during evaluation sessions. Eighty four participants drove on a virtual automated driving simulator with and without the Oculus rift CV1. The experiment showed a statistically significant result for all variables that virtual reality enables better concentration, better involvement and enjoyment when compared with conventional displays.
