“…In this case, the users can trigger the user interface of the questionnaire anywhere in the virtual environment according to their preferences, but the questionnaire functions as an object anchored in the world. An example of this hybrid positioning option is described by Safikhani et al [66] for an in-VR inventory and menu system.…”

Previous research demonstrates that the interruption of immersive experiences may lead to a bias in the results of questionnaires. Thus, the traditional way of presenting questionnaires, paper-based or web-based, may not be compatible with evaluating VR experiences. Recent research has shown the positive impact of embedding questionnaires contextually into the virtual environment. However, a comprehensive overview of the available VR questionnaire solutions is currently missing. Furthermore, no clear taxonomy exists for these different solutions in the literature. To address this, we present a literature review of VR questionnaire user interfaces (UI) following PRISMA guidelines. Our search returned 1.109 initial results, which were screened for eligibility, resulting in a corpus of 25 papers. This paper contributes to HCI and games research with a literature review of embedded questionnaires in VR, discussing the advantages and disadvantages and introducing a taxonomy of in-VR questionnaire UIs.

“…To adapt HMIs in VR to different modalities, customized interaction types are often used, such as laser pointers, additional virtual menus, or input devices such as tablets [44][45][46][47][48][49][50]. Many studies have focused on the optimal human-computer interaction for specific applications in VR, for example, games [51], desktop navigation [52], or learning tasks [53]. However, to evaluate new prototypes in VR, the control elements and the way of interaction should match the later reality as closely as possible.…”

Virtual reality (VR) enables prototypes of devices to be evaluated in a simulation of a future usage environment. A disadvantage is the insufficient feedback design during the interaction with prototypes. In this study, we investigated how virtual control elements in VR must be designed to compensate for the lack of feedback. Therefore, 35 participants performed VR tasks using a virtual joystick and virtual rotary control. According to the design of experiments method, 12 factors, such as haptic feedback, sensitivity, size, and shape, were systematically varied. The control accuracy, task time, user experience, presence, and mental workload were recorded. The effect of a factor on the recorded parameters was examined using multifactorial ANOVA. Linear regression was used to calculate the mathematical models between the factors and parameters. These models were used to calculate the optimal design of the control elements in the VR. For rotary control, eight factors had a significant influence on the recorded parameters. There were seven factors for the joystick. With mathematical models, optimized control element designs for VR were calculated for the first time. These findings can help to better adapt prototypes and human–machine interfaces to different modalities in VR.

“…Several successful VR games were investigated, focusing on their user interaction and UI systems. The first part of this framework was implemented in a tutorial room, and some common UI elements were designed, such as menu, inventory system, and task manager [8]. Luo and Dong discussed the application of digital media technology in environmental art design and pointed out that environmental art design is a more delicate and perceptual art than other design arts.…”

Visual sensing image technology has narrowed the distance between people and art with the rapid development of digital media, but new art forms continue to appear. Therefore, this exploration is aimed at studying the application of visual image technology based on user interface (UI) and virtual reality (VR) technology in art. This exploration is to explore the development path of digital media art. The concept of UI is briefly discussed. Based on the current means of visual sensing technology, UI, visual sensing image technology, and digital media art are successfully combined after the close relationship between digital media and art is realized. The results show that VR technology, which combines UI and visual sensing technology, has good compatibility with digital media art and can further shorten the distance between digital media art and the public. Moreover, the promotion of this application can greatly increase users’ experience of VR. In addition, most people hold a more positive attitude towards this combination. It reveals that it is essential to apply UI and visual sensing image technology to digital media art.
