VR space audit

Short description

Agile architecture driven by human behavior in VR enables us to create a highly efficient dialogue between architects and citizens. We’ve developed a platform that presents any VR environment and automatically tracks and analyzes users’ emotional reactions anonymously, providing valuable insights for design decisions.

Architecture

Processing

The Space Audit platform will process and automatically analyze users’ behavior in VR.

  • Gaze and head movement tracking
  • Voice and semantic analysis
  • Neuro interface integration

Observing

Present any 360° environment to users in VR, with the platform tracking and storing data for analysis.

  • Stereo photos
  • Computer-generated graphics
  • Room with a moodboard

Implementation

The platform generates a typology of different optional spaces with detailed emotional heatmaps.

  • Value profile analysis
  • Environment transformation insights
  • Dataset creation for future research

Description

VR + data + architect

VR is the best way to provide accurate and reliable spatial simulations. Big data becomes invaluable when combined with the interplay between users, space, and information flow. Architects continue to play a key role as decision-makers, fostering a powerful symbiosis between AI and human expertise.
