“…The goal of our pilot experiment is to evaluate to what extent the reported levels of presence and realism are increased by using higher quality rendering of avatars against lower quality ones. Two versions of the same virtual environment from the work by Rios et al (2020) [13] have been used to run the experiment. The first version is a lower quality rendering (LQR) train station crowded with about one hundred lower quality rendering looking avatars (see Figure 4), while the second one is an improved version of the same train station with one hundred avatars with higher quality rendering (HQR) from the Rocketbox library [3] (see Figure 3).…”

Immersive virtual environments have proven to be a plausible platform to be used by multiple disciplines to simulate different types of scenarios and situations at a low cost. When participants are immersed in a virtual environment experience presence, they are more likely to behave as if they were in the real world. Improving the level of realism should provide a more compelling scenario so that users will experience higher levels of presence, and thus be more likely to behave as if they were in the real world. This paper presents preliminary results of an experiment in which participants navigate through two versions of the same scenario with different levels of realism of both the environment and the avatars. Our current results, from a between subjects experiment, show that the reported levels of quality in the visualization are not significantly different, which means that other aspects of the virtual environment and/or avatars must be taken into account in order to improve the perceived level of realism.

“…Reason behind the widespread use of VR is due to its ability to visualize content and concepts and its support for immersive experience [8]. e traditional teaching mode of ideological and political education (IPE) in colleges and universities lacks innovation and only focuses on learning theoretical knowledge [9,10]. erefore, key objective of this study is how to combine new technologies with IPE so that to uplift education.…”

With the advancement of digital technology, new means and methods are being offered in education to enhance teaching-learning. The use of technology in educational interventions has a positive impact on the students’ functional, cognitive, and psychomotor skills. This study aims to improve the teaching mode of ideological and political education (IPE). The research work intends to enhance enthusiasm of college students for ideological and political course (IPC). Based on 5G technology, the rising virtual reality (VR) technology is proposed in this study to improve IPC in colleges and universities. To begin with, the background of IPE and VR technology is introduced. Next, the current college students’ attitudes toward IPE and VR technology are investigated by a questionnaire survey. Finally, based on the red hero culture, the VR system for IPE is designed. Results of the evaluation show that the students who have been the members of the Communist Party have the highest degree of interest for IPC in colleges and universities. Endorsing the fact, about 29.7% college students and 26.81% university students who were members of the communist youth league favored for IPC, while only 14.29% of the masses showed interest for IPC. As a whole, 25.2% of all the students participated in the survey showed their interest for IPC. One of the main reasons behind the results is the teaching mode and means that attract students for IPC. At present, 84.11% of the ideological and political teachers give a lecture of IPC via PPT, while 67.29% of the students prefer the Internet platform as a means of IPC. About 73.4% of the students know VR and are interested in the application of VR to IPC. They believe that VR can help them understand the knowledge of IPC and has broad prospects in improving the teaching quality of IPE. The designed VR system for IPE which is used in colleges and universities has four modules, namely, the preamble module of graphic history, the hero wall module, the hero art sculpture module, and the scene experience module. This system can help realize the objective of IPE in colleges and universities and provides a reference for the application of VR in enhancing IPE.

“…Virtual crowd perception and interactions have also been studied in Virtual Reality, to investigate how users interact when immersed in a virtual crowd. For instance, studies explored user eye-gaze behaviours in virtual crowds or during dyadic interactions [Berton et al 2019], speed adaptations to neighbouring agents when walking with virtual characters [Rio et al 2018], following behaviours during evacuations [Ríos and Pelechano 2020], or the benefits of using haptic rendering of collisions while navigating through a dense virtual crowd .…”
