Abstract
This study investigates the optimization of VR simulation interfaces for agricultural machinery, emphasizing the critical role of skill development and targeted education in enhancing agricultural efficiency. By utilizing eye-tracking technology, the research evaluates user experience (UX) across two menu designs - panel and radial -in VR settings. Results highlight the significance of intuitive menu design in facilitating user navigation and information access, with the panel menu outperforming the radial menu in usability. Despite some preferences for the radial menu's features, the panel menu is favored for its user-friendly design and ease of access, particularly in agricultural simulations. The findings suggest that effective VR interface design, supported by focused training, can significantly improve operational efficiency in agriculture.
期刊介绍:
The international journal AGRIS on-line Papers in Economics and Informatics is a scholarly open access, blind peer-reviewed by two reviewers, interdisciplinary, and fully refereed scientific journal. The journal is published quarterly on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of the current year by the Faculty of Economics and Management, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague. AGRIS on-line Papers in Economics and Informatics covers all areas of agriculture and rural development: -agricultural economics -agribusiness -agricultural policy and finance -agricultural management -agriculture''s contribution to rural development -information and communication technologies -information and database systems -e-business and internet marketing -ICT in environment -GIS, spatial analysis and landscape planning The journal provides a leading forum for an interaction and research on the above-mentioned topics of interest. The journal serves as a valuable resource for academics, policy makers and managers seeking up-to-date research on all areas of the subject. The journal prefers scientific papers by international teams of authors who deal with problems concerning the focus of our journal in the world-wide scope with relation to Europe.
