“…The study takes advantage of the project Tiny FOP MOB, where a physical prototype of a tiny house was built. The experiments conducted with the physical prototype are described in (Berni et al, 2022;Berni et al, 2023). 360° images of the interior of the physical prototype were acquired using a 360° camera after the fabrication and assembly of the prototype was completed.…”

“…In the real prototype evaluation, participants were asked to wear eye-tracking glasses and freely observe the tiny house. They were also asked to fill out the same product evaluation questionnaire after the visit (Berni et al, 2022;Nezzi et al, 2022;Berni et al, 2023). Data collection concerning the physical prototype can be found in (Berni et al, 2022;Nezzi et al, 2022;Berni et al, 2023), while the next subsection describes in detail the collection and processing of visual behaviour data (3.1) and evaluations (3.2) referred to the experiment with the virtual prototype.…”

“…The HTC Vive VR headset combined with a Tobii eye-tracking system was used for both performing the immersive virtual tour and acquire participants' visual behaviour data. Eye-tracking glasses were used to acquire visual data in the real prototype prototype (Berni et al, 2022;Nezzi et al, 2022;Berni et al, 2023)…”

Product development stages are typically characterized by different forms of representations and degrees of specification, which potentially affect user's perception and evaluation. These effects are worth investigating more closely also because of the growing relevance of new technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) in the design field. The objective of this paper is to elucidate the mutual relations between forms of representation, visual behaviour, and people's evaluations. The focus is on differences between virtual and physical prototypes. In the illustrated experiment, participants visited a tiny house in an immersive VR (360° images acquisition). The results were compared with a past experiment where the physical prototype of the same product was similarly evaluated. The dwell times on Areas of Interest (AOIs) pertaining to the tiny house were compared and correlated to variables concerning subjective evaluations. The results show just a few similarities of visual exploration in terms of gazed AOIs. Substantial differences in terms of how the duration of gazing affects evaluations have been found too. The larger number of significant correlations between observations and evaluations in the virtual exploration emerged.

Artykuł przedstawia badania nad postrzeganiem przestrzeni wnętrz architektonicznych z wykorzystaniem technologii eye tracking (badania okulograficzne). W badaniach użyto systemu śledzenia ruchu gałek ocznych w celu pomiaru reakcji wzroku na zróżnicowane bodźce. Celem badania jest określenie cech i elementów wnętrza architektonicznego, które najefektywniej przyciągają wzrok użytkowników przy uwzględnieniu miejsca obserwacji – kadru. Aby osiągnąć cel badawczy, porównano dwa ujęcia tego samego wnętrza holu głównego budynku Wydziału Architektury i Inżynierii Zarządzania Politechniki Poznańskiej. Przedstawionew wynikach badania heat maps (mapy cieplne) zobrazowały skupienie uwagi grupy uczestników w tym samym czasie i pozwoliły na weryfikację wzorców wzrokowych różnych osób. Analiza wyników pokazała, że jasne obszary o wysokim kontraście w obserwowanych przestrzeniach architektonicznych, takie jak dynamiczne, jasne formy, oświetlone tablice informacyjne, podświetlone ekrany LCD, narożniki ścian oraz wybrane konfiguracje architektoniczne, są w stanie przyciągnąć wzrok użytkowników przestrzeni w pierwszej kolejności. To powoduje, że na tych elementach skupiają swoją uwagęi poświęcają im więcej czasu. Narożniki ścian okazały się dominującew odbiorze wnętrza przez uczestników badania. Istotną determinantą był również kadr – kompozycja symetryczna widoku powodowała silniejsze skupienie uwagi w osi widoku.
