The present study adopted a human-centred approach to explore the potential of audio-video Virtual Reality (VR) to evaluate indoor noise protection by building characteristics. Different background speech conditions, convolved with sound insulation filters of adjacent office rooms, were presented in a VR office environment and the effects on cognitive performances and subjective ratings were measured. The found effect patterns were the same as those obtained in a real laboratory setting reported by Schlittmeier, Hellbrück, Thaden, and Vorländer. [(2008). Ergonomics 51, 719-736]. This exemplary study promises various options for research on noise effects by the use of virtual built environments which are of high plausibility and unlimited variability.
本研究采用以人为中心的方法,通过建筑物特征探索音频-视频虚拟现实 (VR) 在评估室内噪声防护方面的潜力。在 VR 办公环境中呈现不同的背景语音条件,并与相邻办公室的隔声滤波器相卷积,测量对认知表现和主观评价的影响。发现的效应模式与 Schlittmeier、Hellbrück、Thaden 和 Vorländer 在真实实验室环境中得到的结果相同。[(2008)。人类工效学 51, 719-736]。这项典范性研究通过使用高可信度和无限可变性的虚拟建筑环境,为噪声效应研究提供了各种选择。
