Biofeedback in Virtual Reality: Assessing Immersive Industrial Safety Training

Resumo


This study analyses biometric data resulting from a virtual reality-based industrial safety training. The current phase of the project features an advanced VR training environment. Utilizing the Design Science Research paradigm, this research involved the design, development, and evaluation of an immersive training program. In this environment, biometric data is captured for the analysis of heart rate metrics. Author’s evaluations based on these data have demonstrated the effectiveness of VR training in enhancing safety measures for work at heights.
