Language, speech and conversational behaviours reflect cognitive changes that may precede physiological changes and offer a much more cost-effective option for detecting preclinical cognitive decline. Artificial intelligence and machine learning have been established as a means to facilitate...

In this work, we examine the value that immersive technologies can bring to retailing through the retail practices they facilitate. To that end, a literature review is conducted resulting in the documentation of 28 augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) applications from 38 publications...

When evaluating virtual reality (VR) locomotion techniques, the user experience metrics that are used are usually either focused on specific experiential dimensions or based on non-standardised, subjective reporting. The field would benefit from a standard questionnaire for evaluating the general...

Existing consumer VR systems support text input using handheld controllers in combination with virtual keyboards and many designers have attempted to build on these widely used techniques. However, information on current and well-established VR text-input techniques is lacking. In this work, we...

The latest technical and interaction advancements within the virtual reality (VR) field have marked a new era, not only for VR, but also for VR locomotion. In this era, well-established, prevalent VR locomotion techniques are mostly used as points of comparison for benchmarking of new VR locomotion...

The drum-like virtual reality (VR) keyboard is a contemporary, controller-based interface for text input in VR that uses a drum set metaphor. The controllers are used as sticks which, through downward movements, “press” the keys of the virtual keyboard. In this work, a preliminary feasibility study...

The use of virtual elements for developing new service prototyping environments and more realistic simulations has been suggested as a way to optimise the service prototyping process. This work examines the application of virtual reality (VR) in prototyping service journeys and it hypothesises that...

Prosjektets mål har vært å generere kunnskap om hva ungdom er opptatt av, og hva de ønsker hjelp med når de skriver inn spørsmål til den digitale informasjons- og kommunikasjonstjenesten ung.no. Prosjektet har også hatt som mål å gi svar på hvordan ungdommenes spørsmål er knyttet til kjønn og...

Nye og bedre Augmented Reality (AR) og Virtual Reality (VR) applikasjoner utvikles helle tiden og brukes mer og mer i handel. Utvikling i AR and VR i løpet av de siste årene satt i gang mange innovasjoner i måten handelen foregår, innovasjoner i markedsføring, og innovasjon i design og...
