Скачать или смотреть Spoon River Cemetery VR

My research is concerned with tools and methologies necessary to effectively design Immersive Virtual Environments for Cognitive Learning and Spatial Memory Tasks. This is the Spoon River Cemetery, a virtual cemetery located on some remote highway. It tells the tale of unfortunate deaths of the inhabitants of Spoon River, from the Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters. This Spring, we're running experiments from the SIVE Lab at the University of Minnesota Duluth to find out what affordances of Virtual Reality stimulate learning. The task is simple: participants must navigate the graveyard from the SIVE lab where their movement is tracked by mounted OptiTrack cameras as they learn about each character before they run out of time, and recount what they experienced in the graveyard.
