Abstract

Virtual reality has the potential to be applied in many fields, including education, medicine, scientific research, etc. Yet virtual reality technology itself is under-explored. Considering the impact of the virtual environment on the experience of the participants and the problems encountered when using them, they should be considered from the early stages of its design, as the capabilities and limitations of users can greatly affect the effectiveness and usability of the virtual environment. Earlier studies of virtual environments have focused on the development and application of technology itself, and it is only in recent years that emphasis has been placed on use problems that include the human factor. The technology of virtual reality systems is evolving rapidly, but these developments can be slowed down by the perceived negative symptoms and effects that occur with users when interacting with the virtual environment.
