Ananth N. Ramaseri-Chandra, Fatima El Jamiy, Hassan Reza · 2019
Performance and usability are essential elements (non-functional requirements) of a virtual reality system. These are the main factors considered by a user for the extensive adoption of any emerging technology like virtual reality. Evaluation of such non-functional requirements is challenging, and gaining the interest of researchers. In this paper, Usability, its importance in virtual reality systems, issues relating to usability, and performance are discussed. Multiple evaluation techniques for usability like group testing, comparative, formative and user analysis have been reviewed. Performance evaluation in a virtual environment based on multiple factors like delay, latency, gender, sense of presence, and technological advancements are discussed. The key motive of this paper is to survey the existing and ongoing research studies in usability and performance evaluation of a virtual environment.
