Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR) is a powerful modern medium for immersive data visualization and interaction. However, only a few research efforts targeted the issue of complementing VR applications with features derived from real-time human behavior analysis in virtual environments. This paper addresses an interactive application for analysis of user behavior in a VR environment. In this work, real-time data communication is employed to collect data about the VR user’s location and actions in the virtual environment. To ensure the authenticity of interactions in the virtual environment, the VR application aims at achieving complete immersion. Our findings pertaining to behavioral patterns in immersive environment suggest that there is a potential in applying knowledge of user behavior models to improve the interactivity between the user and the virtual environment. Analysis of VR users’ behavioral models also complements studies typically performed by traditional survey techniques.
