Virtual Reality Simulation for Multimodal and Ubiquitous System Deployment

Résumé

Multimodal IoT-based Systems (MIBS) are ubiquitous systems that use various connected devices as interfaces of interaction. However, configuring and testing MIBS to ensure they correctly work in one's own environment is still challenging for most users: the trial and error process in situ is a tedious and time-consuming method. In this paper, we aim to simplify the installation process of MIBS. Thus, we propose a new VR methodology and a tool that allow the configuration and evaluation of MIBS thanks to realistic simulation. In our approach, users can easily test various devices, devices locations, and interaction techniques without prior knowledge or dependence on the environment and devices availability. Contrary to on-the-field experiments, there is no need to access the real environment and all the desired connected devices. Moreover, our solution includes feedback features to better understand and assess devices interactive capabilities according to their locations. Users can also easily create, collect and share their configurations and feedback to improve the MIBS, and to help its installation in the real environment. To demonstrate the relevance of our VR-based methodology, we compared it in a smart home with a tool following the same configuration process but on a desktop setup and with real devices. We show that users reached comparable configurations in VR and on-the-field experiments, but the whole configuration and evaluation process was performed faster in VR.
