Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study proposes a novel virtual reality (VR) technique, named experience-oriented VR (XVR), and application to educational support system for experiments involving electronic circuit construction. To be applicable to various purposes and environments of users, this XVR system is composed of three dimensional (3D) vision, motion sensing, virtual measurement, and solid shaping using a 3D printer. The educational support system using XVR enables users, lacking environment for an experiment (e.g., equipments and laboratory), to construct, measure and operate various virtual educational and engineering works such as electronic circuits and robots.
