“…In consequence, multiple sectors started to explore the applications of VR, from the gaming industry, through architecture and even the medical world and industry, for example in machine or car manufacturing. VR, apart from entertainment, is used for interior design, product prototyping or even exposure therapy for treating phobias, as in Schäfer et al (2015) or coping with emotions, pointed to by Kornacka and Douilliez (2016). With the VR solutions becoming more widespread it is important to engage all stakeholders, in particular end users, in their design.…”

VR with Older Adults: Participatory Design of a Virtual ATM Training Simulation

et al. 2019

In this paper we report on a study conducted with a group of older adults in which they engaged in participatory design workshops to create a VR ATM training simulation. Based on observation, recordings and the developed VR application we present the results of the workshops and offer considerations and recommendations for organizing opportunities for end users, in this case older adults, to directly engage in co-creation of cutting-edge ICT solutions. These include co-designing interfaces and interaction schemes for emerging technologies like VR and AR. We discuss such aspects as user engagement and hardware and software tools suitable for participatory prototyping of VR applications. Finally, we present ideas for further research in the area of VR participatory prototyping with users of various proficiency levels, taking steps towards developing a unified framework for co-design in AR and VR.
