从用户群体的视角看虚拟现实应用的可用性:一个案例研究

Usability of Virtual Reality Application Through the Lens of the User Community: A Case Study

Wenting Wang, Jinghui Cheng, Jin L. C. Guo

摘要:

虚拟现实(VR)应用的可用性和多样性的增加突出了其可用性的重要性。面向功能的VR应用程序提出了新的挑战,在文献中没有得到很好的研究。此外,由于现代软件工程工具,如应用程序商店和开源平台,用户反馈变得容易获得。以Firefox Reality为例,我们探讨了这些平台中出现的主要VR可用性问题。我们发现,77%的可用性反馈可以映射到尼尔森的策略,而很少有人可以映射到VR特定的策略。这一结果表明,尼尔森的分析可以帮助开发人员在早期开发阶段解决这个VR应用程序的可用性问题。这项工作为探索利用社区努力促进面向功能的VR应用程序的可用性的工具铺平了道路。

英文摘要:

The increasing availability and diversity of virtual reality (VR) applications highlighted the importance of their usability. Function-oriented VR applications posed new challenges that are not well studied in the literature. Moreover, user feedback becomes readily available thanks to modern software engineering tools, such as app stores and open source platforms. Using Firefox Reality as a case study, we explored the major types of VR usability issues raised in these platforms. We found that 77% of usability feedbacks can be mapped to Nielsen's heuristics while few were mappable to VR-specific heuristics. This result indicates that Nielsen's heuristics could potentially help developers address the usability of this VR application in its early development stage. This work paves the road for exploring tools leveraging the community effort to promote the usability of function-oriented VR applications.
