PDF: Natural Experiences in Museums through Virtual Reality and Voice Commands
Abstract
In this demo we present a system for immersive experiences in museums using Voice Commands (VCs) and Virtual Reality (VR). The system has been specifically designed for use by people with motor disabilities. Natural interaction is provided through Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and allows to experience VR environments wearing an Head Mounted Display (HMD), i.e. the Oculus Rift. Insights gathered during the implementation and results from an initial usability evaluation are reported.
