This paper outlines some of the benefits of using virtual reality (VR) in physics education at the university level. Based on the existing experimental infrastructure of the low-background gamma spectroscopy laboratory, a VR experiment has been designed which includes all the stages of the physical measurement process. Following the VR experiment, the students receive pre-prepared experimental data (gamma spectra) from which they extract a specific result (in this case, the mass of the deuteron) and accordingly validate some of the knowledge they acquire in the classroom. The most significant benefit of introducing VR into the education process is the opportunity for students to become familiar with experimental settings and procedures, in environments without similar infrastructure, as well as being provided with appropriate experimental material. An example from nuclear physics was taken because there is great scope in this field for the possible use of VR techniques in teaching. Only a few universities have adequate equipment to cover this field extensively, especially for advanced courses or master studies. This technique could be also applied in the teaching environment for a number of other experimental courses.
U radu je obrađena tema primene tehnologije virtuelne realnosti kao novog medija u prezentaciji arhitektonskih i urbanističkih projekata. Istaknuta je problematika upotrebe virtuelne realnosti u arhitektonskoj vizuelizaciji. Praktični deo rada podrazumeva kreiranje simulacije Zemunskog keja.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
