The Human-Centered Design methodology advocates VR prototyping, as an effective tool to evaluate concepts in a cost-efficient, time-saving way. It is the question of whether it works in the development of a product intended to increase privacy while flying.
The current study aims at the application of virtual reality on the evaluation of a new privacy bubble called PRIVA for the passenger cabin.
An interactive VR was created and aligned with the HTC VIVE headset. 40 participants took part in the experiment as well as in the post-experiment survey.
The concept was in overall, desirable as it was perceived to be more private, comfortable, satisfactory, effective, and appealing to participants compared to the current seat experiences. It was also perceived as more satisfactory with regards to the activities.
The VR was effective, although there are limitations, the product seems promising and should be developed further.
以人为中心的设计方法提倡使用虚拟现实原型制作，作为一种以具有成本效益和节省时间的方式评估概念的有效工具。问题在于，它是否适用于开发旨在增加飞行时隐私的产品。
本研究旨在将虚拟现实应用于评估一种名为 PRIVA 的新客舱隐私泡。
创建了一个与 HTC VIVE 耳机相匹配的交互式 VR。40 名参与者参与了实验和实验后的调查。
与当前的座位体验相比，该概念总体上是理想的，因为参与者认为它更私密、更舒适、更满意、更有效、更吸引人。它在活动方面也被认为更令人满意。
虚拟现实是有效的，尽管存在一些限制，但该产品似乎很有前途，应该进一步开发。
