Immersive Authoring Tools for Creating Virtual Environments

[a3d...@googlemail.com]

Dear All,

My name is Andrew Dunk and I'm a PhD student at the University of Reading, UK.

If you create of have ever attempted to created virtual reality environment, would you please help me with my research by answering a short questionnaire? It will take about 5 minutes to complete. I would be very grateful.

As part of my PhD research, I have created an authoring tool that allows novice users to develop virtual environments while immersed within a CAVE like system without needing any programming or modelling experience. I am interested in finding out about peoples current design methods for virtual environments, and their skills in 3D modelling and coding, so they can be used as comparisons with my work.

All data collected is anonymous.

Here is a link to the questionnaire: http://goo.gl/BwwXu

Thank you for your time,

Andrew Dunk

Supervisor: Dr. Faustina Hwang.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to my research by answering the questionnaire so far.

I am still hoping to get a few more responses so if you have not filled in the questionnaire yet and can spare 5 minutes please do. It will help me and my research out a lot.

There have been some requests from people for more details about my research and my immersive authoring tool. I have not got a website with information (yet) but here is a short video of someone using the immersive authoring tool to create a simple bathroom. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3Dc1eFZg_A

Thank you,
