A Study of Voice Control Implementation in a Web-Based VR Tourism Application
Pages 644 - 650
Abstract
In recent years, public interest in Virtual Reality (VR) applications has increased. The development of VR applications has reached a point where the application can be developed in the website (web) platform. In that platform, one of the widely used input methods is the gaze. With gaze input, the users interact with the application by moving the device. The device can be a Head-Mounted display (HMD) or smartphone. However, this method still has drawbacks. The users may accidentally enter input while looking the other way. In addition, this input method cannot be used by users who cannot move their bodies due to motoric disabilities. According to other studies, the most natural input method for users to use is voice input. However, there is still very little research in Indonesia about how to determine the best Indonesian word to be used as the input commands. Therefore, this study will analyze how to implement the voice input system for web-based VR applications and calculate the level of user acceptance. This research shows that voice input doesn't necessarily provide a more immersive experience for the user and the user prefers to use short verb sentences as the input command.
