| Popis: |
The process of densification in existing communities is complex and often encounters resistance. Public engagement is a crucial component to this process and requires appropriate visual and spatial communication tools. This pilot project explored the use of Virtual Reality (VR) as a spatial communication tool that uses CAD graphics with new visualization technology to provide the public with an immersive experience in a virtual environment. Using a pair of VR goggles and a digital 3D model, different scenarios were presented to members of the public to test their perception of various density models. Three density scenarios were presented to the public, both in the form of traditional posters and using a headset and VR computer model. We found that the public were able to better understand the scenarios and were more accepting of densification when while visualizing the proposed density scenarios via the VR interface. |
